Escaping the madding crowd requires self-sufficiency and an efficient vessel, which is something Australian-owned Iliad Catamarans knew from the very beginning of the conception of this range of powered catamarans. These vessels and their inherent features, such as frugality and shallow draft, mean they are also ideal explorer boats.
The Iliad 62 power catamaran can cruise in trawler mode or in semi-displacement mode, reaching a maximum speed of 21 knots comfortably during our sea trial.
Italian designer Riccardo Bulgarelli combined stylish aesthetics with an efficient dedicated power hull with plenty volume aft to ensure even-trim on the water.

Test location: Sydney, Australia Conditions: no wind and calm sea
The first Iliad to arrive in Australia was a 50, in 2019, and was joined in 2020 by a 70 model in a line-up that includes 53, 62 and 74 models. For 2022, the major milestones are the upcoming 53 S, which is the sedan model and now, the arrival of hull number one of the 62 that made its debut at the 2022 Sydney Boat Show. These semi-displacement yachts can achieve double-digit cruising speeds and long ranges. The key to these capabilities is a wide array of engine choices, all shaft-driven, tailored to a customer’s needs. The popularity of explorer-style yachts continues to grow as people seek to escape the crowds and embrace technologies that liberate them from onshore services. For motor yachts, fuel efficiency is a key feature, and this is where catamarans with their low-drag hulls are very attractive.

BOAT REVIEW ILIAD 62
- Quality of the build
- Internal layout
- Extremely practical
- Luxury finishes
With its global launch at the 53rd Sydney International Boat Show in July 2022, potential buyers for the new ILIAD 62 flew in from the US, Asia and across Australasia to view the vessel. Three such groups then went on to purchase a 62 whilst attending the show.
After the show, I spent the day on board cruising Sydney Harbour and taking the vessel out past the heads into the rolling ocean swells. The weather for the sea trial was sunny and warm with a light breeze – and a lot of ferry wakes. Since the brand’s inception just over three years ago, ILIAD is quickly become an established brand in the Australasian motor yachting space. With their all-new ILIAD 62 model having recently been nominated for the 2022 Multihull of the Year, one of the most prestigious awards in yachting, ILIAD is beginning to turn more and more heads in the industry. The ILIAD 62 is a highly fuel-efficient, lightweight, long-range passage-making vessel. Built to Category-A standards, the boat is immediately ready for travelling the globe and gives the clear impression that she is more than capable and willing to take her passengers to the moon and back. The new owners of this vessel, Bob and Delores, came along on the boat review with us, having flown from Florida to become acquainted with their new dream boat.
Design DNA While talking with ILIAD’s CEO, Mark Elkington, we explored how the company’s perception of a potential gap in the cruising catamaran market went on to inform and create ILIAD’s design DNA. ILIAD Catamarans deliver a long-range vessel with protective grounding skegs, making them beach-able in an emergency or for out-of-water servicing when navigating in remote areas. In many respects, this is an old-school way of thinking, just like we might find in New Zealand on a Pelin from the 1970s, long before IPS drives ever existed. This way of thinking creates the opportunity to inspect, clean or complete repairs if needed when miles away from help or a travel lift. It is an approach the importance of which some have long forgotten. Simple, and practical, it provides peace of mind and will save a lot of money over the boat’s lifetime. The efficiency of these hulls is phenomenal for such a vast craft, delivering a range of over 3300 miles at 8 knots passage-making cruising speed. Equally important, the ride is tranquil and very smooth.
Build strength Built to Category-A safety specifications for up to 12 passengers, the hull of the ILIAD 62 is constructed with vinylester, one of the few boats globally built entirely out of this resin – the whole hull, not just the outer shell. Most boats are made with a layer of vinylester to provide watertight integrity, but ILIAD builds the entire hull from vinylester. And while this adds considerable cost, it gives absolute peace of mind that the boat will outlive its owners without the developing any of issues that sometimes affect composite vessels. This is potentially the perfect boat for a couple or family to do and get lost with, and there is no ocean in the world they shouldn’t be able to cross.
Travelling range With a fuel capacity of 7,100 litres, the test boat packed a pair of Volvo Penta D6-600s. Other engines are available, with the next build having a couple of 670hp Cummins installed. During the trial, we tested the fuel burn at various speeds. At full throttle, we were quickly doing 3200rpm – 21 knots at 11.0 litres/nm. On a long-range passage, cruising at 8 knots, expect 2.0 litres/nm. These are impressive figures considering the vessel’s minimum displacement of 40,000kg. Michael Crook, ILIAD’s Chief Operating Officer, indicated that if the cruising speed is reduced to six knots, the range increases to over 4000nm. That is a lot of ocean to see on a single fill of fuel!
Size of it! When looking at the ILIAD 62 from the marina berth or at anchor, she’s an impressive vessel. At 18.95m, she’s long, tall too, and wide at 8.19m, but with a modest draft of only 1.5m. Often, a vessel this size can be intimidating to use. However, she proved easy to manoeuvre in marinas and anchorages, had fantastic visibility from both helm stations, and the Seastar electric power steering was very responsive. The twin bow thrusters were hardly used, nor was the pair of interceptors on each hull. The stern area also had a couple of cameras, as did the engine bays, enabling the skipper to keep a watchful eye on proceedings from either of the helm stations whilst underway.
Layout options ILIAD is a semi-custom builder and the sheer size of the vessel creates many customising opportunities for owners. That and the fact there are no structural beams in the middle of the floor plan dictating where things must go. There are many different layout options available, and during the sea trial I saw plans for the next builds. One will have an internal stairwell, another will have a serving bar, leaner and stools, and the one probably best suited for year-round New Zealand use will have a fully enclosed flybridge.
Quality components The ILIAD 62 comprise thousands of different components. Each boat is built to order and once all parties have approved everything, a production schedule is set. Wait times currently stand at just 12 months. With labour making up the bulk of any build cost, boats are manufactured at ILIAD’s shipyard facility in China, with almost all the building materials and componentry coming from Europe, Japan, the USA, New Zealand and Australia. The ILIAD 62 uses the best components from all over the world, including New Zealand where the glass is manufactured.
To the moon and back When stepping on board the ILIAD 62, it takes a few moments to absorb just how different this boat is from others in this bracket. Its quietness underway provides significant insight into how strongly it is built and it also absorbs people and equipment, never feeling crowded.
