Following its highly successful Global Premiere in Singapore last month, the Rapido 500 ECO Power Cat will make its second public appearance at the Malaysia International Boat Show (MYBOS) 2025, held at the prestigious Royal Langkawi Yacht Club, 21-24 May, 2025.

Designed for those who demand space, economy, and performance, the Rapido 500 ECO Power Cat continues to redefine expectations in the power catamaran market. Lightweight yet luxurious, the 500 ECO delivers exceptional fuel efficiency and a remarkably smooth ride — even at higher speeds.

Proven fuel economy

Here’s a recap of Vamoose II’s (R500 ECO, Hull #01) remarkably fuel efficient journey to the Singapore Boat Show from Vietnam on her maiden voyage:

Light displacement: 6.2T
Distance: 600nm
2 x 80HP inboard engines
Total fuel consumption for 2 engines: 18 litres per hour
Total rate of fuel consumption for 2 engines: 1.5 litres per nm
Average speed: 12.2 knots
Crew: 3
Total fuel bill: USD648 (900 litres at 72c in Vietnam)

That’s cheaper than buying air tickets for your crew.

The Rapido 500 ECO Power Cat will star at the Malaysia International Boat Show in Langkawi from 21-25 May 2025.

The Malaysia International Boat Show (MYBOS) is shaping up to be one of Asia’s most exciting marine events, and we are thrilled to showcase the Rapido 500 ECO in Langkawi, a paradise for sailors and powerboaters alike. Visitors to the show will have the opportunity to step aboard, experience the spacious living areas, admire the quality of the craftsmanship, and speak directly with the Rapido team.
