Wow! Savanti 31, 36, and 43. Your Choice—the Liveaboard model,
or the Cruiser. Either Way, Unlike ANY Other Catamaran Available.
(A) The “Liveaboard’s” low-deck profile means easy
access while permanently docked as a remarkably
elegant, floating home. (B) The “Cruiser” version (with
3’ higher hulls for slicing through 3-to-5-foot seas),
will carry you safely for 100-to-1,000 coastal miles: be
it the epic “Big Loop” cruise — or NY-to-FL via the
ICW — or, in Europe, from the North Sea to the Med.
Unlike other cats—requiring unending, steep-stair
climbs to get to-and-from tiny cabins crammed into
narrow hulls—all SAVANTI living areas are located on
ONE, stair-free level. (Thus, the 2 big hulls serve solely
as exceptionally roomy, “basement” storage spaces.)
Other cats require 2 noisy & expensive diesels. We
use a bigger, quieter outboard motor (plus bow thruster), for 10-15 knots. Thus, easy beaching, & servicing.
So, say “NO!” to cramped stairs & cabins, or microsize kitchens. Say “YES” to a 4’ fireplace, a 5’ HDTV, 6’
fridge-freezer, 7’ walk-around beds, plus all major appliances. And, thanks to a robust heat-and-AC system,
enjoy homelike
comfort anywhere,
summer or winter.

This SAVANTI 43 (pages 2 &
3) was specially designed for
a Florida couple seeking the
ultimate in cruising-yacht
comfort for a year-long voyage around the 7,000-mile,
“Big Loop” passage. (From
FL, up the ICW [IntraCoastal
Waterway], to NY; along the
New England and New
Brunswick coasts; “hang a
left” into the St. Lawrence
Seaway, then the Great
Lakes; another left [southward] down the Mississippi
River to the Gulf of Mexico;
and then a final left [eastward] for the return to FL.)
The sole restriction during
this trek is one, lowclearance, non-opening
bridge with only about 17’
of clearance beneath it.

owner’s request we’ve also included an extra-long, 6’

your own “Big Loop” cruise.) Despite its exceptionally
roomy layout, the SAVANTI-43 is designed so as to fit
under that bridge — even if you order the hard-top,
“Penthouse” option (elevator also optional!) for the upper deck. (We can install that hard-top to be easily removed at that bridge, then re– installed once you’ve
cleared the bridge. ).
Meanwhile, the guest bedroom includes an amazing 7’
wide desk that converts (in just 3 seconds!), to a readyto-sleep-in, queen-size bed. (You don’t need to remove
anything from the desk, including a big-screen monitor,
etc. See that company’s video: hiddenbed.com).
This SAVANTI –43 is set to carry a 10’ RIB (and outboard)
in davits. But, alternatively, you could carry a 12’ dinghy,
stored above, along the aft end of the sundeck, where it
would be launched and retrieved by a single, electric/
hydraulic hoist, also installed above.
This special SAVANTI-43 includes the optional, 2nd staircase at the aft end of the galley. This allows guests to
reach the sundeck (2nd level) without having to pass
thru the Owner’s Suite to get to the standard, exterior
staircase, which rises from the front deck. Notice also
such specialties as double, Sub-Zero freezer drawers,
under and to the left of the TV. Similarly, under and to
The SAVANTI 43 gives you the comfort and space of a 50to-55’ singlehull cruiser, yet costs $400K to $850K less!

SAVANTI Cruiser models are for you. Their higher hulls
will slice thru any seas you’re likely to meet while exploring the major lakes, rivers and coastal bays in America.
And the twin, cat’ hulls mean way less “rock-n-roll” than
you’ll experience aboard same-length singlehull boats —
PLUS, nearly 100% faster speeds than same-length displacement monohulls: enjoy cruising at up to 15 MPH.
31’, 36’, & 43’ — Either Liveaboard or Cruiser
The SAVANTIS, debuting Feb., 2017, are the next addition to Eco-Sea Cottages’ (ESC’s) current line of 9, woodframed, or metal-framed, or all-fiberglass liveaboard vessels. As with 70% of our current ESC owners, the
Liveaboard version will appeal to those with no boating
background — and understandably so. For them, switching
to a stylish floating home, permanently docked in a protective marina, is saying “YES!” to an amazing, lifestyleenhancing experience. Think Tom Hanks’ houseboat in the
movie “Sleepless In Seattle” — only much more elegant!
Whether your choice is 31, 36 or 43 feet, you’re guaranteed more home-like comfort (for less money) than 10feet longer “regular” motor boats. Plus, SAVANTIS come
standard with heat, air conditioning, and all major appliances. Be it price, comfort, or amenities, you can’t beat
the modern, SAVANTI liveaboard/cruisers.
However, if you already love the “cruising” lifestyle, our

We offer a variety of interior layouts. (See
just a few examples on page 6).
(1) The view from within your Savanti is
amazing — whether thru the salon’s 9-foothigh, safety-glass “wall,“ or, (2) from the
salon/galley’s big side windows. (a full-size
“kitchen” available in wood, stainless steel,
or vividly colored (or all-white) laminates.
(3) This galley design invites family or
friends to pull their stools up around the
“island,” kibitzing with the cook and his/her
helpers. (Note the home-size appliances, full
-height fridge/freezer, and recessed lighting
around the inset cabinet bases.) (4) Here
we see one of the layouts possible in the
Savanti 31. If you order the optional, overhead loft for any Savanti (see dotted line,
page-6, “D”), that sleeping/storage area is
high above the living room.
(See underside of loft, and its ladder,
bottom-left of page 6.)

SUNDECK There are three sizes. X. This Savanti 31 reveals the small sundeck, with seating for 6. Y. This is the mid-size version. Z. This is one example
of the large sundeck layout, although we could offer yet a larger one, too.
A truly unique design aspect of the Savanti is that you can specify either
end to be built as the bow. “Say Wha’?!” For example, X & Y show the steering wheel facing toward the large deck, so the transom-steps and outboard
motor would be mounted at the opposite end of the vessel. But the Z steering station is facing the seemingly “correct way” — toward the smaller deck.
If you usually motor on relatively calm waters (a small lake or river, or
along the ICW), then choosing the bigger deck to be the “bow” means there’s
added room for people to be comfortably seated, viewing the upcoming scenery. And, if the breeze increases, those people sitting on that larger deck can
simply move inside of the big, safety-glass “wall” separating the deck from the
salon, and continue to enjoy the oncoming scenery. For those who worry that
this higher end of the vessel is “un-aerodynamic” for a bow, that’s true. BUT,
given the moderate speed of the vessel, even a 15-knot headwind won’t affect
your forward speed by more than one knot, as compared to choosing to have
the lower, curved end of the vessel (see Z, below) as your “bow.”
We don’t know of any other boats (except canoes!) that give you the
choice of “bow and stern” when ordering your vessel. How nice that, as with
many other distinct aspects of the SAVANTIS, you get to choose!
