Catana 471 Ocean Class | 2005

The Catana 471 Ocean Class is a powerful, fast and safe boat.  Built with vinyl ester resin, PVC closed cell foam and carbon fibre reinforced bulkheads, meaning a quality build made to last.

The Catana is a performance catamaran, with daggerboards giving excellent upwind sailing performance and is set up with a gennaker as well as solent foresail and large 90m2 mainsail.  The boat is easy to manage single handed. The centre cockpit electric winch allows for all sail handling without leaving the cockpit, as well as lifting the dingy onto the davits.

The advantage of the Catana is it combines performance with space and comfort.  Zen is a 4-cabin 4 bathroom version.  The interior has attractive wood paneling, a large salon with table seating, galley facing aft with corian work surfaces.  There is plenty of storage, the beds are large

Zen was fully refitted in the Catana yard in 2012 and has been in private ownership ever since and maintained by the yard until 2021 when the boat set sail for the Pacific.  The equipment and maintenance list attest to the care that has been taken of this boat:
