Now is your opportunity to own super clean, spacious 3 cabin - 2 head cruise -ready, US built, high performance, blue water catamaran, designed for fast cruising in comfort and safety.
Built in Sarasota, Florida to very high standards, Manta Catamarans have an excellent reputation as serious offshore catamarans that can easily be single handed. They are especially known for their built in safety features such as the laminated hull to deck joint and collision bulkheads creating watertight compartments in the ends of each hull.
Akira has been lovingly maintained and continually upgraded. Here are some highlights:

The hallmark of the Manta fiberglass hull construction sets it apart from large-scale production brands of catamaran boats.
The vessel sleeps five to six people comfortably in three staterooms. Six large deck hatches and six opening port lights throughout the vessel provide excellent ventilation.
The port hull is dedicated to the Owner's suite, which includes a full sized queen berth facing fore and aft with custom memory foam mattress NEW 2017, and a very large private Owner's head forward with spacious shower stall. Port hull walk through has optional book shelves and a huge pantry storage cabinet with a mini settee with storage and large cedar lined hanging locker.
The starboard hull has 2 Guest Cabins, a queen berth aft and a twin berth forward. A center head with separate shower stall is located between the two cabins. Both heads have Jabsco Quiet Flush electric marine toilets.
The spacious salon has an open floor plan with a large L-shaped seating / table area, galley, navigation station and entertainment center. The full U-shaped galley and large, separate refrigerator / freezer units provide excellent cooking facilities and cabinet storage, with an adjacent pantry in the port hull hallway.
The boat has highly durable teak and holly composite flooring throughout, with attractive Honey Oak laminate interior countertops, cabinet doors and drawers. Louvered teak doors. She also features vinyl head liners and ozite hull liners to control interior hull condensation (thoroughly cleaned 2018). At the dock, two zones of 120 VAC reverse cycle heat and air conditioning (24k BTU total) keep you nice and cool in the tropics or warm in northern climates.
Manta hulls, decks, deck house, bulkheads and sole are made of tri-axial and bi-axial fab mat over Nida Core polypropylene core. Resins used include polyester, vinylester and isophalic gelcoat. The hul below the water line is solid fiberglass. All construction is vacuum bagged to produce a strong, stiff structure. Most production catamarans use inferior balsa or foam core in upper structures.
There are two structural collision bulkheads in the forward section of each hull. Heavy duty vinyl extruded rub rail covers the entire external flange hull to deck joint. Hull to deck joint is chemically and mechanically fastened over entire length and then fiberglass coated on the inside. All deck hardware is machine screwed into aluminum plates within the layup. Pyramid pattern non-skid provides excellent footing. Under water through hulls are made of non-corrosive Marelon.
