Roto Nautica, the Slovenian brand, surprised us last year with its rotomolded catamaran Korkyra 650. Now, they are back with a center console open hull with a stepped hull: the Hydra 530.
Just like the entire range, it is made of fully recyclable rotomolded polyethylene, known for its impact resistance and low maintenance requirements.
This is far from the rustic rotomolded hull stereotype of a sailing club; the comfort level is akin to that of a premium open polyester hull. Luxurious bucket seats at the helm, thick upholstery, Fusion stereo, multifunction screen on the dashboard, and cockpit flooring resembling Seadek all add to the appeal.
