The Canados Heritage 36 introduces a new perspective on what a modern power catamaran can be. Designed and built in Italy, this innovative catamaran day cruiser blends high-speed performance, exceptional fuel efficiency, and versatile onboard space, making it equally compelling as a luxury day cruiser or a capable yacht tender.
The Heritage 36 is engineered for owners who want more speed, more stability, and smarter efficiency without sacrificing comfort or design.
Why Catamarans Excel as Day Cruisers and Yacht Tenders
Catamarans have become increasingly popular as day cruisers and yacht tenders thanks to their inherent design advantages. The Heritage 36 leverages a twin-hull platform with an advanced tunnel design that reduces drag and increases hydrodynamic efficiency.
Compared to traditional monohulls, a power catamaran:
- Creates less water resistance
- Requires less power to reach higher speeds
- Delivers better fuel economy and longer range
- Provides increased stability at rest and underway
These advantages translate directly into a smoother ride, lower fuel consumption, and a more sustainable approach to high-performance boating.
Performance and Efficiency in a Compact Power Catamaran
Powered by twin 300hp Mercury outboard engines, the Canados Heritage 36 delivers performance that stands out in the day cruiser category:
- Cruising speed: 30 knots
- Top speed: 50+ knots
- Fuel consumption: Approximately 30% lower than most boats in its class
This balance of speed and efficiency allows owners to cover more distance with less fuel, making the Heritage 36 an ideal solution for island hopping, guest transfers, and high-speed coastal cruising.
“The Heritage 36 demonstrates how far modern power catamarans have evolved,” says Mark Lindsey, CEO of Revolution Marine Group. “By reducing drag through its twin-hull design, the boat delivers remarkable speed with less power, offering a smarter, more efficient, and more sustainable way to enjoy high-performance cruising.”
Advanced Helm Technology for Confident Operation
At the helm, the Heritage 36 features Mercury Joystick Piloting with Skyhook®, making the boat exceptionally easy to maneuver. With the push of a button, the system uses GPS precision to hold the boat’s position and heading, acting as a virtual anchor, even in wind or current.
A Garmin GPS navigation system further enhances situational awareness, making this power catamaran well-suited for owner-operators as well as professional crew.
A Flexible Layout Designed for Entertaining and Utility
Designed to accommodate up to 16 passengers, the Heritage 36 features a practical one-cabin layout that enhances versatility for both day cruising and tender duties. The head is located on the port side and the cabin to starboard, both accessed via large gullwing doors that improve light, airflow, and accessibility.
Key onboard features include:
- Two large aft lounges, with an optional U-shaped configuration seating up to 20 guests
- Dual dining tables seating eight
- Optional kitchenette configuration with refrigerator, freezer, ice machine, and grill
- Extensive storage beneath the lounges
- Two pull-out drawer refrigerators beneath the dining seating
- Sink in the forward settee opposite the helm
- Forward cockpit seating for four with an integrated shading system
- Integrated retractable passerelle / swim ladder for seamless boarding and water access
The Heritage 36 is offered with a hardtop bimini for shade, with an open configuration also available.

Stylish and exceptionally well-appointed, the Canados Heritage 36 functions effortlessly as a luxury day cruiser or yacht tender, while remaining adaptable for guest transfers, water sports, island hopping, and overnight stays. Its combination of speed, stability, efficiency, and intelligent layout makes it one of the most versatile power catamarans in its size range.
