Ultimate Explorer

makai power catamarans

The M45 doesn’t have a marketing brief, rather a mission statement: to offer unsurpassed range and comfort to true cruisers, while reducing fuel consumption and therefore their environmental impact. It has a clear charge to give you the ability to travel long distances quickly and efficiently in a true liveaboard boat. Stylish lines differentiate this model from its competitors, but it's extremely practical deck layout and interior mean its beauty is far more than skin deep. The M45 is easy to operate for novices and experienced cruisers alike, and it’s remarkable fuel efficiency makes boat ownership a pleasure rather than a burden, all while considering our environment.

Form Stability

The natural form stability of a catamaran means the M45 requires no expensive and space-consuming stabiliser. This 45 footer is as peaceful at anchor as a much larger monohull, while also having low draft and easier maintenance. Twin IPS500 engines deliver class-leading performance. Their forward-facing propellers and electronic controls provide precise low speed manoeuvrability, “skyhook positioning or virtual anchoring”, as well as drastic performance improvements including; 20% increase in top speed, 40% increase in cruising range, 30% reduction in fuel consumption & CO2 emissions. There is no need for expensive and service-demanding bow thrusters.

Fixed positioning means you can hold position outside of a dock while preparing fenders for your approach, or spin the boat in a confined space. There is no need for expensive and service-demanding bow thrusters.

TRUE CRUISING

The M45 is uniquely designed to deliver enormous range, with the comfort requisite to make long journeys a pleasure. Optimised to operate at 1800-2000rpm, in harmony with the strengths of IPS engines, and also to operate on one engine for long periods, the M45 frees cruisers from the stress of constantly watching the fuel gauge and finding fuel docks. The enormous saloon and cockpit hold months worth of food and drinks supplies in premium comfort.

The Power (Live in Moscow)

I've been thinkin' all night, I've seen the world

More things than you know that could ever be

My girl, you're best that I've ever seen

So I've been thinkin' alright, this is it

This is what we got, what it's gonna be

My girl, I'll say a prophecy

I could dream in a sea from the garden of Eden, yeah

Coiled snake on my way but I won't believe it, yeah

I gave you forever

My secrets, my soul, undone

I gave you the great unknown

I'll always remember

The moment you let me go

And when I'm alone I'll know

I gave you the power

Oh-oh, oh-oh

Baby then you'll know

I've been in my hindsight, it was rough

So cruel just to be that tough

The world turns, I guess you better learn

Like a knife at a gun fight, still argue

But still the same old thrill

My girl, I bet you'll have a whirl

My secrets, my soul undone

I've been there, I just got home

Makai Power Catamarans

Power and poise through form stability.

OPEN ELEGANCE The MAKAI M37 OPEN Power Catamaran is the ultimate sunchaser. Without the cruising protection offered by the roof ( GT version ) the OPEN is free to maximize your fun under the sun. Faster and more agile through reduced weight, this catamaran sweeps you away to distant lagoons and anchorages of calm and relaxation, while delivering fun and excitement for the whole family to enjoy along the way. Your experience is unlike any conventional motor yacht – the OPEN is offered with up to 3 refrigerators or icemakers, and even a mini-galley down below to allow you to maximize cockpit space above. We have a range of soft bimini tops to provide UV relief, and with powerfully airconditioned cabins, there’s no better way to take advantage of great weather.

UNIQUE IN ITS CLASS MAKAI has carefully designed mood lighting in the cabins, cockpit, and on the foredeck, to make the atmosphere on the M37 utterly relaxing. Optional C-Zone lighting control enables Day, Night, and Twilight modes, while the premium sound system and low engine noise through careful insulation keeps sound in step with lighting.

FAST AND MANEUVERABLE CATAMARAN EFFICIENCY Catamaran efficiency makes the M37 incredibly quick and fun to drive–it also makes it maneuverable. Propellers are spaced farther apart than on a monohull–making them more efficient and providing greater twisting force when maneuvering in tight spaces. Add in joystick control and this boat is simple to drive, and even more simple to dock.

Catamaran form stability means the M37 is calm in rough conditions, and stable at anchor. So you and your guests will feel the tranquility of a much larger yacht. But make no mistake this is a performance cruiser: up to combined 740 horsepower, along with our new and unique super low-drag catamaran design, enables a 38-knot top speed – numbers normally reserved for 1000HP monohulls.

STANDING HEADROOM Unlike any other power catamaran in its class, the M37 has a full standing headroom in two beautiful staterooms. All have double beds, and for families there’s even the option of a double bed with additional singles for extra kids and guests. Each cabin has its own shower, sink and electric flush toilet.

FULL-FEATURED AND FIT FOR PURPOSE Our experienced team recognize the need for owners to personalize their boat, and our options list features everything from hydraulic swim platforms, to smart device integration. Tailoring your M37 catamaran can be as fun as driving it. MAKAI Catamarans use the latest technologies to make boating more fun, but with the future in mind as well. Consider the scalable electronics options – with additional displays, fishfinders, scanners, cameras, and even integrated night vision capabilities.

Roof-covered boats provide protection from the elements for you, but also for the boat. Open versions are regularly more exposed. That’s why MAKAI conducted exhaustive research into making the M37 OPEN Power Catamaran. We paid careful attention to the detail, and built it to last, with UV-protected materials, careful installation, and a helm layout that maximizes your fun in the sun. The M37 OPEN is the only boat in its class to offer premium textiles and joinery throughout. Paints come with a 5-year guarantee against fading and are offered in a range of metallic and gloss options to make every M37 unique.

Ch. 8 The Development of Russia

Ivan i and the rise of moscow, learning objective.

  • Outline the key points that helped Moscow become so powerful and how Ivan I accomplished these major victories
  • Moscow was considered a small trading outpost under the principality of Vladimir-Suzdal into the 13th century.
  • Power struggles and constant raids under the Mongol Empire’s Golden Horde caused once powerful cities, such as Kiev, to struggle financially and culturally.
  • Ivan I utilized the relative calm and safety of the northern city of Moscow to entice a larger population and wealth to move there.
  • Alliances between Golden Horde leaders and Ivan I saved Moscow from many of the raids and destruction of other centers, like Tver.

A rival city to Moscow that eventually lost favor under the Golden Horde.

Grand Prince of Vladimir

The title given to the ruler of this northern province, where Moscow was situated.

The Rise of Moscow

Moscow was only a small trading outpost in the principality of Vladimir-Suzdal in Kievan Rus’ before the invasion of Mongol forces during the 13th century. However, due to the unstable environment of the Golden Horde, and the deft leadership of Ivan I at a critical time during the 13th century, Moscow became a safe haven of prosperity during his reign. It also became the new seat of power of the Russian Orthodox Church.

Ivan I (also known as Ivan Kalita) was born around 1288 to the Prince of Moscow, Daniil Aleksandrovich. He was born during a time of devastation and upheaval in Rus’. Kiev had been overtaken by the invading Mongol forces in 1240, and most of the Rus’ principalities had been absorbed into the Golden Horde of the Mongol Empire by the time Ivan was born. He ascended to the seat of Prince of Moscow after the death of his father, and then the death of his older brother Yury.

image

Ivan I. He was born around 1288 and died in either 1340 or 1341, still holding the title of Grand Prince of Vladimir.

Ivan I stepped into a role that had already been expanded by his predecessors. Both his older brother and his father had captured nearby lands, including Kolomna and Mozhaisk. Yury had also made a successful alliance with the Mongol leader Uzbeg Khan and married his sister, securing more power and advantages within the hierarchy of the Golden Horde.

Ivan I continued the family tradition and petitioned the leaders of the Golden Horde to gain the seat of Grand Prince of Vladimir. His other three rivals, all princes of Tver, had previously been granted the title in prior years. However they were all subsequently deprived of the title and all three aspiring princes also eventually ended up murdered. Ivan I, on the other hand, garnered the title from Khan Muhammad Ozbeg in 1328. This new title, which he kept until his death around 1340, meant he could collect taxes from the Russian lands as a ruling prince and position his tiny city as a major player in the Vladimir region.

Moscow’s Rise

During this time of upheaval, the tiny outpost of Moscow had multiple advantages that repositioned this town and set it up for future prosperity under Ivan I. Three major contributing factors helped Ivan I relocate power to this area:

  • It was situated in between other major principalities on the east and west so it was often protected from the more devastating invasions.
  • This relative safety, compared to Tver and Ryazan, for example, started to bring in tax-paying citizens who wanted a safe place to build a home and earn a livelihood.
  • Finally, Moscow was set up perfectly along the trade route from Novgorod to the Volga River, giving it an economic advantage from the start.

Ivan I also spurred on the growth of Moscow by actively recruiting people to move to the region. In addition, he bought the freedom of people who had been captured by the extensive Mongol raids. These recruits further bolstered the population of Moscow. Finally, he focused his attention on establishing peace and routing out thieves and raiding parties in the region, making for a safe and calm metaphorical island in a storm of unsettled political and military upsets.

image

Kievan Rus’ 1220-1240. This map illustrates the power dynamics at play during the 13th century shortly before Ivan I was born. Sarai, the capital of the Golden Horde, sat to the southeast, while Moscow (not visible on this map) was tucked up in the northern forests of Vladimir-Suzdal.

Ivan I knew that the peace of his region depended upon keeping up an alliance with the Golden Horde, which he did faithfully. Moscow’s increased wealth during this era also allowed him to loan money to neighboring principalities. These regions then became indebted to Moscow, bolstering its political and financial position.

In addition, a few neighboring cities and villages were subsumed into Moscow during the 1320s and 1330s, including Uglich, Belozero, and Galich. These shifts slowly transformed the tiny trading outpost into a bustling city center in the northern forests of what was once Kievan Rus’.

Russian Orthodox Church and The Center of Moscow

Ivan I committed some of Moscow’s new wealth to building a splendid city center and creating an iconic religious setting. He built stone churches in the center of Moscow with his newly gained wealth. Ivan I also tempted one of the most important religious leaders in Rus’, the Orthodox Metropolitan Peter, to the city of Moscow. Before the rule of the Golden Horde the original Russian Orthodox Church was based in Kiev. After years of devastation, Metropolitan Peter transferred the seat of power to Moscow where a new Renaissance of culture was blossoming. This perfectly timed transformation of Moscow coincided with the decades of devastation in Kiev, effectively transferring power to the north once again.

image

Peter of Moscow and scenes from his life as depicted in a 15th-century icon. This religious leader helped bring cultural power to Moscow by moving the seat of the Russian Orthodox Church there during Ivan I’s reign.

One of the most lasting accomplishments of Ivan I was to petition the Khan based in Sarai to designate his son, who would become Simeon the Proud, as the heir to the title of Grand Prince of Vladimir. This agreement a line of succession that meant the ruling head of Moscow would almost always hold power over the principality of Vladimir, ensuring Moscow held a powerful position for decades to come.
