This New Solar-Electric Catamaran Comes With a Massive, Fold-Down Beach Club
Cosmopolitan Yachts just unveiled an electrifying new catamaran.
The simply named Cosmopolitan 125 spans, you guessed it, 125 feet, making it the largest model in the burgeoning Spanish yard’s five-strong lineup. The zero-emission newcomer is also equipped with a hybrid solar-electric propulsion system that makes it cleaner and more efficient on the high seas than traditional diesel-powered yachts of a similar size.

The 125 features a lightweight aluminum exterior and sleek, modern lines. With a focus on sustainable luxury, the cat is replete with innovative, eco-friendly materials and the latest green technologies. Solar panels have been integrated into the rooftop, for instance. The yard didn’t share exact specs but says the yacht can traverse the seas sans emission at a cruising speed of 10 knots.
Described as a floating haven by Cosmopolitan, the multihull has an impressive interior volume of 500 GT and offers nearly 6,500 square feet of deck space. The living quarters are replete with “state-of-the-art amenities and luxurious finishes,” according to the yard.
The spacious layout includes four VIP guest cabins, one owner’s suite with a private terrace, three crew cabins, and a captain’s cabin. The guest accommodation is spread across the lower and main decks, while the owner’s cabin can be positioned on either the main deck or the bridge deck. The crew quarters are located on the lower deck, along with the crew mess, galley, and laundry.
The 125 offers more than just a place to sleep, of course. The main deck is home to a large living room with a TV and game area, while the upper deck is outfitted with a giant dining area and bar. A second bar and a gym can be found on the lower deck. Alfresco lounges are positioned forward and aft, while a helipad sits on the uppermost deck.
One of the standout features of the 125 is the beach club. The innovative platform is fitted with expandable terraces that open directly over the water to transform the stern into what Cosmopolitan calls “a private waterfront resort.” The sprawling space, which affords guests direct and easy access to the sea, can be used for sunbathing, swimming, or sundowners.
Cosmopolitan Yachts was founded by Christian Braun and Iván Salas Jefferson in 2021. Based in Barcelona, the yard specializes in custom aluminum catamarans with highly efficient electric propulsion systems. The range currently includes four models ranging from 70 to 111 feet and, of course, the electrifying new 125.
