Description
The Catana 40S designed by the famous architect Lock Crowther is a fast cruising catamaran known for its lightness, performance, and reliability in offshore sailing. With only 4.2 tons of displacement, this model is among the performance catamarans capable of offering excellent speeds under sail while maintaining a comfortable cruising experience.
This unit from 1992 underwent significant refurbishment between 2022 and 2024. The work carried out in 2023 is particularly substantial, with structural reinforcements on the mast foot, the davit supports, and the hull / nacelle junctions. The stainless steel rigging has also been replaced, while the mast and boom have been completely refurbished.
The energy system has been fully modernized with a 1,520 W solar installation consisting of four panels and a lithium battery bank of 850 Ah installed in 2023. The whole system is managed by a complete Victron system including MPPT controllers and 375 W and 3000 W inverters. This system ensures significant energy autonomy for life on board.
Water production is ensured by a Seawater Pro desalination unit of 70 liters per hour installed in 2024, complemented by a rainwater recovery system via the hardtop. Together, they allow for total autonomy during long passages.
The interior layout includes three cabins, two double cabins and one single cabin. The saloon has been redesigned to offer a modular table that can transform into a large sleeping area. A workshop and storage space has also been integrated, practical for long voyages.
The kitchen is equipped with a 12 V refrigerator-freezer, a three-burner gas stove, an induction cooktop installed in 2021, and a 7 kg washing machine. The mattresses and cushions in the saloon and cockpit were replaced in 2023.
Outside, the cockpit has been fully optimized with a new table, a custom Airex hardtop, and an extended rear platform incorporating a preparation station for fishing. The aluminum davits allow for the storage of a 2.8-meter Airex dinghy equipped with a Suzuki 9.8 HP engine.
Based in Papeete, French Polynesia, and taxes paid, this Catana 40S represents an excellent platform for a long cruising program or a world tour.
