The Multihull Company is proud to share a landmark announcement from the shipyard in Les Sables-d’Olonne. In a move that reinforces the “No Compromise” philosophy that has defined the brand for over 40 years, Privilège has become the first multihull shipyard in the world to make SEA.AI standard equipment across its entire range of blue-water catamarans.

At The Multihull Company, we have always maintained that a yacht is more than a vessel; it is a human commitment to safety and serenity. This new partnership with SEA.AI is the perfect embodiment of that belief.

Beyond Radar and AIS: A New Era of Vigilance

While traditional navigation systems like Radar and AIS are essential, they have long had a “blind spot”: unidentified floating objects (UFOs), containers, debris, and even whales. For the serious offshore sailor, these represent the greatest anxiety during night passages or short-handed sailing.

By integrating SEA.AI as a core feature, every new Privilège—from the Signature 510 to the flagship 650—now comes equipped with an “intelligent eagle eye” at the masthead. Using high-resolution thermal and optical cameras combined with advanced AI algorithms, the system provides:

• Continuous 24/7 Monitoring: Automated detection of objects that traditional radar may miss.
• Whale Strike Prevention: Critical protection for both the vessel and marine life.
• Short-Handed Security: Audible and visual alerts that act as a dedicated lookout, allowing small crews to manage long passages with reduced fatigue.
• Enhanced Night Vision: Crystal-clear situational awareness in total darkness, fog, or heavy rain.

Mastered Innovation for the Modern Sailor

“SEA.AI naturally strengthens Privilège Marine’s long-standing philosophy: creating yachts that combine ocean-proven robustness, absolute safety, and bespoke comfort,” says Antoine Maillot, CEO of Privilège Marine.

For our clients at TMC, this isn’t just a technical upgrade—it’s peace of mind. Many of the sailors we work with are couples or families embarking on global circumnavigations. They demand technology that is “mastered”—proven, reliable, and genuinely useful. After seeing the high uptake of SEA.AI as an optional add-on, the decision to make it standard was a natural evolution of Privilège’s commitment to its owners.

The Future of Blue-Water Cruising

This integration sets a new benchmark for what sailors should expect from a luxury blue-water yacht. It bridges the gap between traditional French naval haute couture and the cutting-edge digital intelligence required for modern ocean crossing.

As your bridge to the world of Privilège, The Multihull Company is here to guide you through these latest innovations. Whether you are planning a crossing or a quiet season in the islands, you can now do so with a level of vigilance that was once the stuff of science fiction.
