Sorry this is a little late on the swim step thread. I got bounced because of using the wrong account to send this message. Hi Power Catters, I added swimsteps to my Euphorie 40 Power Catamaran. We really like them except they are a little close to the water. They work great at anchor or on the mooring. You get your feet a little wet from the exhaust gurgling when the engines are warming up when we are full on fuel. We are considering replacing them with hull extensions (the white outline in picture) to improve the trim angle and provide more buoyancy in the stern. Our swim steps are made of 30mm stainless tubing and starboard, they are the width of each hull. See photos of our swim steps at http://24.199.42.10/stbdst.bmp http://24.199.42.10/stern1.jpg I also caught a picture off the internet of another very interesting swim step for a Euphorie 40 http://24.199.42.10/Different%20Swim%20step.bmp Randy Boelsems GECKO GECKO 1992 Euphorie 40 Power Cat Huntington Beach, CA

How many have been built? Are they still in production? What attracted you to Euphorie over other makes? Do you still offer charters on your boat? --Georgs -- Georgs Kolesnikovs Power Catamaran World http://www.powercatamaranworld.com
