Cormate Powerboats Overview

Designed and developed in Norway, Cormate offers a bespoke built, classically styled range of high performance family sports boats. While well known and highly regarded throughout Scandinavia, the brand is less well known over here. Cormate is the leisure boat division of Hydrodesign and is headquartered in Fredrikstad, Norway. Those that follow offshore racing will be familiar with the name. Check out our website at www.finedesign-marine.co.uk to see our current stock.

Established in 1985, Hydrodesign has enjoyed considerable success on the racing circuit and within the marine leisure sector. Founder and CEO Egil Ranvig created Hydrolift, a race inspired range of family sportsboats, which he later sold to Koenigsegg cars. Hydrodesign designed and built the world's first RIB to break the 100 Knot barrier back in 1999, powered by a single V12 Lamborghini. More recently, Ranvig broke the Oslo to Copenhagen record with another of his creations.

It is evident that Cormate boats are founded on the experience and lessons learnt from these high performance race craft, coupled with Ranvig’s expertise in hydrodynamic design and obsession with high quality and the extensive use of the latest construction technologies. Ranvig was at the forefront of stepped hull design and has now taken this full circle with the introduction of a full 25 degree dead rise “balance plane hull.” Unique to Cormate, this hull form features a step back transom and air induction that gives the helmsman far more control over planing attitude and results in increased comfort to those on-board. This, coupled with ultra light weight sandwich construction, gives impressive performance figures.

The current “flagship” model is the Cormate Chase 34. There is a new T28 model, U23 Pro XS, and Supermarine models, plus more new models currently at prototype stage. The T27 Supermarine was a firm favorite which originally debuted at the Norwegian International Boat Show in 2006, where it won the “Boat of the Year” award. Ranvig has since developed the entire range to such an extent that now Scandinavian royalty count amongst his many high profile customers. During the Summer of 2015, King Harald V of Norway took delivery of his new Cormate T27 Supermarine to replace his Riva, his new boat now being moored at the royal family's summer house at Magero, Norway.

Given that Cormate has at its core over 30 years of world record breaking design and development experience, perhaps it should come as no surprise that this brand is setting the benchmark for quality and good design. These craft really are something to sit up and take notice of.
