Brokers Comments

Having sailed catamarans with my family for 5 years, this is a stunning example of ready to cruise condition. Any and all systems that would be questionable on a vessel of this age have been addressed. The fact that the vessel is repowered with 2 high end, but simple to maintain Yanmar engines, the new electronics suite, water maker, the self sufficient solar, wind, alternator and Lithium battery package, rigging and sail, saves the new buyer the headache of replacements in the years ahead, and guarantee trouble free cruising and living the dream, while potentially saving $90.000 in expenditures. If you buy this boat, you would only need to bring your bathing suits and stock the fridge.

This exceptional equipped and professionally maintained boat will not last long in this market if you look for a reasonable priced catamaran that allows you to go cruising right away. Fair winds and Following seas.
