This boat is not for sale in US waters to a US citizen until it clears customs. I have sold several Catana 431's over the years and I can tell you this is a very popular yacht for those who have had the privilege to sail one. It is small enough to be handled by a couple, easy to reef and dock, yet large enough to handle big seas and turn nice speeds in most conditions under both sail and power. She has good bridge deck clearance, so she seldom slaps or pounds, a powerful rig to push her along in light breezes, dual daggerboards that enable her to point smartly, and properly vacuum bagged hulls with Klegecelle cores and kevlar lining.
The main salon has an intelligent galley, the aft suites are spacious, loaded with light, and have plenty of headroom. Corazon, like most 431's, was never in charter. She was purchased by her current owner from her original owner and has spent the past year sailing the Caribbean, Bahamas, and U.S. East Coast. She is fully equipped for cruising and in very good condition with low engine hours and brand new sails. For most of her life she was hauled during hurricane season at The Multihull Company at Catamaran Village in Trinidad. She has been under the expert care of Philippe Richard, who operates the facility and manages The Multihull Company at Catamaran Village brokerage. Corazon may be out cruising, so please contact us well in advance so that we may facilitate a showing of this fine Catana 431. Just click on the full specs tab here to see Corazon's extensive inventory - solar panels, wind gen, SSB, new sails -- she is ready to step on and take off to just about anywhere in the world. As of May, Corazon is still in the Bahamas, but the owners plan to work their way up the U.S. East Coast - the plan is to enjoy their boat until she is sold to her new owners. Please contact us to learn where she is currently voyaging so we may facilitate a showing. Contact Phil at The Multihull Company corporate offices in Philadelphia to learn more about this fine used Catana 431. Phil attended the last survey of Corazon and can speak intelligently about her to interested buyers. |
