TAJ is a remarkable VPLP 77 performance cruising catamaran, designed by renowned naval architects VPLP and built by TRI MARINE. Launched in 2003 and extensively refitted in 2018 with over EUR 750,000 invested, she perfectly combines comfort, elegance, and true sailing capabilities.
Built with a lightweight composite structure reinforced with carbon, TAJ is capable of cruising at 300 to 350 nautical miles per day. She was conceived for real sailors, offering a responsive sailing experience while maintaining a high standard of comfort and safety. With twin aft helms, excellent visibility from the cockpit, and electric winches, she is easily handled by a crew of just two.
TAJ accommodates up to 8 guests in 4 ensuite cabins, including a spacious master stateroom featuring a bathtub. The interior is bathed in natural light thanks to panoramic windows, and the large saloon is designed with various lounging areas, a full dining space, bar, and chart station. All interiors, soft furnishings, and technical components were renewed in 2018, creating a bright, modern, and inviting atmosphere.
The protected cockpit allows al fresco dining for 12 guests, and the deck layout is practical yet refined. TAJ is equipped with state-of-the-art sail systems including a LORIMA carbon mast, PETITJEAN carbon V-boom, and a full set of 2021 DOYLE sails in Stratis Carbon: mainsail (197 m²), genoa, staysail, and a 220 m² Code 0. Two large trampolines forward and flush decks emphasize her clean, sleek lines.
Powered by twin NANNI 110 HP engines (2018) and two ONAN generators (19 kVA and 10 kVA), TAJ has a cruising range of 1,200 NM. Additional features include dual 250 l/h DESSALATOR watermakers, CLIMMA 40,000 BTU air conditioning, and high-quality electronics for both navigation and entertainment.
