Balam | 2017 Fountaine Pajot SABA 50

Loreto, MX

About

Balam is a prime example of this celebrated model from Fountaine Pajot. Widely known for its charter-friendly layout and solid sailing performance, any Saba 50 is in high demand.She comes with all required documentation and permits for chartering in Mexico, if the new owner chooses to continue. This fully-equipped six cabin/six head adventure platform is perfectly suited to captained charters in the Sea of Cortez, and the owner could use the boat as much, or as little, as they may choose, while substantially offsetting the costs of ownership. She has never been bareboated, making her maiden voyage across the Atlantic from France as part of the ARC Rally fleet in 2017, and then on to Mexico. Shortly thereafter she was placed in charter with WCM, and has been well cared for ever since. She's a turn-key charter business opportunity! More photos available upon request.

Working with Andrew Hodgdon at The MultiHull Company was a great experience. Andrew has years of experience in the multihull market, especially performence catamarans and was the Technical Director at Balance Catamarans for many years. He’s always available to talk, guide and advise. He’s easy to work with, is extremely knowledgeable, and has a very pleasant way about him. I would highly recommend Andrew to help in your sale or purchase of any multihull.

Working with Will, Andrew Holland and Andrew Hodgdon to sell my Balance 442 was such a pleasure. No one knows multihulls as well as Andrew Hodgdon, especially performance cats like a Balance. As Technical Director of Balance for many years, Andrew knows all of the nuances of that type of boat, as well as the other brands in the category. If you want to sell or buy a catamaran, look no further than Andrew Hodgdon!
