"Fantastic!"...."Absolutely Brilliant." These are the first words to come to mind upon stepping aboard this wonderful Catana 58.
Nastia is the final of 29 produced 58's and has been upgraded in every aspect (see full specifications) as such, she is no longer your typical factory-produced 58!
Nastia wears a Maltese Flag.
Nastia has had one owner since her conception and was built with 3 cabins + Owners Version Cabin for added comfort and privacy.
Upgrades are visible the moment you step into her saloon-style layout. The owner has replaced an impractical settee on the starboard side with modern cabinetry that holds loads of additional storage space, dishwasher, a washing machine and has opened the interior space with a cool white color.
Flooring has been recently updated with marine vinyl laminate, while marine cork was used to replace the cockpit and sugar scoops’ teak deck.
To separate the working space from the living space, the Skipper’s Cabin located in the starboard cabin was turned into a large workshop with a nice working table and neatly stored tools and ropes. This space can be easily reverted to skipper’s cabin if necessary. There are two large compartments in the bows that hold all the sails/ropes/fenders.
Nastia comes upgraded with many carbon fiber parts. Carbon fiber mast by Alucarbon, Custom made carbon fiber daggerboards, carbon fiber cockpit table and chairs and complete hardtop in carbon fiber. Carbon fiber upgrades provide the boat with weight savings which in the end will allow much better performance and efficiency than the standard factory version. As such, her hardtop now weighs only 90kgs.
Further, the owner worked closely with the Catana yard during her building process to ensure she has reinforced bulkheads and weight carrying structural parts.
Brand new Volvo folding Gori propellers allowed her to glide through water at 1340 rpm (both engines) and maintained the speed between 7.5-8 knots with a bit of wind in the stern.
Electronics are upgraded, halyards are replaced with Dyneema and Harken winches throughout the boat with a large three speed electric winch in the cockpit (shame they don’t produce three speed anymore as this was probably the best they every made).
Nastia is a large 58 foot owner’s version built to cruise around the world, as such she has an extremely well thought-out design. Further, the owner has redesigned her saloon in order to maximize her storage and equipment space.
Tasteful details have been added in all interior spaces through the years and her interior now looks like a true yacht designer’s masterwork. The owner has also upgraded to a Mastervolt pack of lithium batteries with about a kilowatt and a half of flexible solars and an almost new Fisher generator.
Nastia has everything one would need to safely circumnavigate the world in speed and comfort. In short, Nastia has every possible piece of high-end equipment you can add to a performance cruising cat!
