An Ocean Cruiser with a Performance DNA
The Ocean Cruiser 44 by HH Catamarans is closely related to the HH44, but designed with more of a cruising spirit at heart. As with all of our OC boats, you still get the same HH build quality and outstanding fit and finish. What differs is a boat that features high-performance skegs instead of 5-meter pre-preg daggerboards and a gel-coat finish instead of paint. The boat also comes standard with a single swing-helm and twin diesel propulsion, but you can upgrade to twin swing-helms and our innovative EcoDrive, if you wish. Otherwise these two yachts are identical in every other way.
Diesel/ Electric Hybrid Motors Optional
Although the boat comes standard with enough equipment to go sailing (once you select your desired sail plan) and supported by diesel motors, there is also a wide selection of potential upgrades to customize this boat for your exact sailing needs. You can choose a massive 3.2kW of solar for the roof and an innovative hybrid diesel / electric motor by Beta Engines & Hybrid marine.
The cruising keels were designed by Morrelli & Melvin to include winglets that provide increased lateral resistance and allow the boat to point six degrees higher than conventional keels.
Saloon and Cockpit
Aft salon windows are hinged and open fully to allow continuous flow from salon to aft cockpit. The aft helm pivots in for shade and weather protection or out for extra visibility onto your sails.
Flip down helm seats are out of the way for everyday living, and are simply deployed when needed. All sail controls are managed from the aft helm stations: hoisting and reefing the main, furling sails, trimming sheets, and adjusting the dagger board position.
Saloon and Cockpit
Stylish interiors are offered combining a forward facing helm, comfortable saloon seating and large galley up with full wrap around panoramic windows.
An optional retractable sun roof available above the saloon for additional ventilation
Both large flat forward windows open completely for ventilation and increase one’s connection with the sea while relaxing in the generously sized (17.4m2) salon. The salon windows are thermally toughened glass (not plastic).
Folding Transom
As with the HH44, the OC44’s folding transom platforms provide safety while underway, and deploy at anchor to create four feet of additional living space and an easy connection to the water.
