YOT to Debut V12-Powered Catamarans at Cannes 2025

The biggest news is the introduction of Mercury’s V12 Verado engines to the YOT range. Following the May 2025 launch of the YOT36 with twin 400hp V10s, the brand now offers the Mercury 600hp V12—currently the only V12 outboard on the market. This advanced system integrates: 

• Two-speed automatic gearbox 
• Steerable lower unit 
• Counter-rotating propellers 
• Joystick control 
• Skyhook virtual anchoring 
• Advanced Range Optimisation (ARO) 

The result is a powertrain that enhances control, efficiency and ease of maintenance—with service intervals stretching up to 1,000 hours. Both the YOT36 and YOT41 now deliver speeds of up to 40 knots. 

Measuring 12.57 metres with a 5.82-metre beam, the YOT41 offers generous proportions. It features two en-suite cabins, an aft saloon, and the option of an electric swim platform. The full windscreen design adds a sleek edge to its profile. With the new V12 setup, this power catamaran delivers a smooth yet exhilarating experience. 

The YOT36 remains the flagship of the range—an agile, sporty platform ideal for relaxed or high-paced coastal adventures. With the new twin V10 configuration, it promises increased range, top-end performance, and hands-on driving fun. 

Designed by JnJ Design and backed by over four decades of marine engineering experience, YOT power catamarans blend performance with personality. Offering a fun, customisable, and stylish boating solution, YOT continues to grow its global footprint across Europe, the USA, Mexico and the Middle East.
