GranOcean, the specialized builder of semi- and fully-custom power catamarans, is seeing notable growth across the U.S. and European markets. Following a series of recent deliveries from its W-Series line, the company continues to attract experienced owners seeking advanced performance, bespoke design, and strong value in the luxury power catamaran segment.

Recent deliveries include a W-60 model to a Florida owner in June 2025, followed by two W-72 models delivered in late 2025 - one to Florida and another to Italy, where it will enter crewed charter operations. Two additional deliveries are scheduled, including a W-60 destined for Mexico and a W-72 delivering to Florida this March.

GranOcean's emphasis on deep customization distinguishes the brand in a market often defined by limited flexibility and high upcharges for personalization. The builder offers tailored layouts, finishes, and engineering solutions without the traditional cost barriers, attracting owners who want yachts built specifically around their lifestyle and operational needs.

Further underscoring this momentum, two fully custom yachts from GranOcean's X-Series are currently under construction. Available in 24- and 32-meter models, the X-Series represents the builder's most advanced expression of personalization, performance, and seaworthiness.

As part of its expanding international presence, GranOcean - together with global distributor Catamaran Guru - has appointed regional representation in Thailand and Hong Kong to support growth across Asia.

The brand will also make its first official U.S. boat show appearance at the 2026 Palm Beach International Boat Show (March 25-29), where a newly delivered W-72 will be on display.

"We're seeing strong and growing interest in both our W-Series and X-Series power catamarans," said Eric So, Partner and Lead Designer at GranOcean. "These yachts are designed for clients who know what they want and appreciate a vessel tailored to their specific needs. The continued growth in the U.S. market reflects increasing demand for well-engineered, highly customized power catamarans."

With successful deliveries dating back to 1999 and an ongoing commitment to innovation and bespoke craftsmanship, GranOcean continues to grow its footprint in the global luxury power catamaran market.
