This is one of the last Catana 58 catamarans ever built, and she was, more or less, a custom project and meant to be the rocket ship version of this all time classic world voyaging catamaran. Her owner made use of carbon fiber in every area of the build to bring down her weight. Careful decisions were made at every turn on her build to make her the fastest Catana 58 ever built. And she is that.
Go over her specifications, examine her interior, her inventory, and what you have here is a near-new boat, built to the highest possible standards, for an amazing price. A yacht such as this could not be duplicated today for anything less than US$2,300,000. She has every possible piece of high-end equipment you can add to a performance cruising cat.
She is one of my personal “best values” catamarans for someone wanting a near new boat of this size that has the get up and go to sail anywhere in the world in speed and comfort.
