Description

Launched in May 2006.

An absolutely beautiful catamaran in immaculate condition, and kitted out with a massive inventory of modern gadgetry and equipment – everything one could possible need to begin a self sustained cruising career in luxury, style and comfort - from electric winches to scuba gear and an impressive assortment of deck hardware! She is a category A boat, and built to the highest of safety standards. She also has special design features such as a raised bridge deck to reduce slamming, collision bulkheads and completely watertight engine compartments. She hasn’t done much sailing and has a very new feel to her.
