Overview

Built for the long
way around.

The Cure 68GT takes the Cure philosophy into a larger and more capable space, combining full-carbon construction with the systems, space and resilience required for serious offshore cruising.

Carbon daggerboards, rudders, mast, longeron and crossbeam are standard, creating a stiff, lightweight structure designed to perform efficiently across long passages and demanding conditions.

Whether crossing oceans, exploring remote coastlines or sailing in azure blue waters, the 68GT is designed to make ambitious voyages more achievable, without losing the connection with the sailing experience that defines every Cure.

Why the Cure 68GT

Designed with Purpose

One philosophy. Five principles.

The Cure philosophy remains consistent across the range. The 68GT takes each of its five principles further — combining lightweight carbon construction, sailor-focused design, comprehensive offshore systems, McConaghy expertise and an ownership package designed for ambitious voyages.

Performance starts with weight.
Lightweight by Design

Performance starts with weight.

The Cure 68GT is built entirely in carbon, including the daggerboards, rudders, mast, longeron and crossbeam.

Reducing weight throughout the structure means less displacement to push through the water, lower loads throughout the rig and a more responsive, efficient boat under sail.

On a cruising catamaran designed to cover thousands of miles, that efficiency matters.

Less weight doesn't simply make the 68GT faster. It makes every mile easier.

A bigger yacht that still feels connected.
Designed Around the Sailor

A bigger yacht that still feels connected.

The challenge with a larger cruising catamaran is maintaining the connection between sailor and boat.

The 68GT's twin articulating helm stations place the sailor exactly where they need to be — providing clear visibility, direct access to sail controls and protection when conditions demand it.

Integrated carbon helm seats bring navigation and propulsion controls naturally to hand, while carefully considered line runs and deck access make movement around the boat safe and easy.

The result is a yacht that feels composed and manageable, even when the scale of the platform increases. More yacht. Not more complexity.

Built for the miles between destinations.
Designed for the Journey

Built for the miles between destinations.

The 68GT has been conceived for owners who intend to go beyond conventional cruising grounds, and in a high degree of comfort.

Generous energy storage, substantial solar generation and carefully integrated electrical systems provide the autonomy required for extended time away from shore.

Expansive and practical working spaces and robust systems are considered as part of the boat from the beginning, not added afterwards as options.

From remote anchorages to challenging passages, the 68GT is designed around a simple objective: spend more time exploring. Less time looking for the next marina.

More than five decades of composite expertise.
Built by McConaghy

More than five decades of composite expertise.

The Cure 68GT benefits from McConaghy's composite engineering experience dating back to 1967.

That experience spans America's Cup campaigns, Sydney Hobart racing, offshore race yachts, superyachts, performance multihulls, carbon spars and some of the world's most technically demanding composite projects.

For the 68GT, that expertise is applied at every level, from tooling and composite manufacture to structural engineering, rig development and final assembly.

The builder matters when the boat is designed to go this far.

Equipped for the world beyond the marina.
Ready for the Journey

Equipped for the world beyond the marina.

The Cure 68GT is specified as a complete performance cruising catamaran from the outset.

Rather than starting with a low base price and asking owners to navigate an extensive list of essential options, the Cure approach is to include the equipment and systems we believe belong on a yacht designed for serious offshore cruising.

The result is a yacht that's properly equipped for its purpose from day one, with the flexibility to tailor the details around each owner's plans.

Performance

Designed to make distance rewarding.

The performance of a cruising yacht is ultimately measured in miles.

How efficiently it converts wind into forward progress. How quickly it accelerates. How well it maintains speed as conditions change. And how confidently it carries that speed through a long passage.

The Cure 68GT combines a lightweight full-carbon structure with efficient hulls, daggerboards and a balanced sail plan to deliver sustained performance across a broad range of wind conditions.

The objective isn't simply to produce impressive peak speeds. It's to make long passages faster, more efficient and more rewarding.

Polars

Sail Plan

Understanding the Polar Diagram

The coloured curves represent predicted boat speed across different true wind speeds and sailing angles. The further each curve extends from the centre, the faster the boat is travelling in those conditions.

Look across the diagram rather than focusing on a single peak number. The shape of the curves shows how efficiently the boat performs as the wind moves from close-hauled through reaching to downwind sailing.

For a catamaran designed for ocean passages, the most interesting characteristic isn't necessarily its maximum speed. It's how much useful speed it can maintain across the conditions encountered on a real passage.

A sail plan designed around the whole purpose of the boat.

The Cure 68GT's sail plan is designed to extract performance from the yacht's lightweight carbon platform without creating unnecessary complexity for the crew.

The powerful mainsail provides the primary driving force, while the self-tacking jib contributes balance and pointing ability while keeping the foredeck clear and sail handling straightforward.

The result is a rig that combines efficient upwind performance with manageable loads and intuitive handling. For longer passages, that balance becomes increasingly important.

The best performance is the performance you can use every day.

Layout

Every centimetre considered.

Space for the journey.

The Cure 68GT creates the space required for extended cruising without losing sight of the performance that defines the range.

Generous living areas, private accommodation and expansive indoor-outdoor spaces are connected through a layout designed for natural movement, visibility and life aboard.

Multiple configuration options allow owners to tailor the boat around their cruising plans, from extended family voyages to long-range exploration with guests and crew.

A larger platform. A more capable life aboard. The same connection with the sea.
