An Opportunity to own a performance orientated Catamaran designed by World Renowned Naval Architect Alexander Simonis does not come around often and especially at this price point.

Dreams Float is a 2006 5 Cabin Maxim 57 Catamaran built in Durban, South Africa. She has just finished a South Atlantic crossing and has arrived in Georgia for the summer season. She recorded some high speeds on her transit and has proven herself as a capable Blue Water cruiser with several South Atlantic and Indian Ocean passages. The cost to build a boat new to this spec would be astronomical.

The MAXIM 57 is a very purposeful seagoing vessel and with a vast amount of usable space on board both inside and out for a boat this size.

With performance sails, a storm jib, a code zero and a Spinnaker she has a sails for all point of sail for long distance cruising. All made by North Sails.

Dreams Float would make an ideal expedition vessel for large families wanting to explore off the grid or perhaps an affordable expedition catamaran for remote charters in uncharted waters. Built to sail around the world with the length over the waterline and bridge deck clearance that most cruisers can dream of.

The previous owner has completely re-fitted her at a cost of over $150,000 with new sails, new standing rigging, new running rigging, new chargers, brand new water maker and a Brand-new Solar Arch with solar creating additional shade and protection in the cockpit.
