Boat Description
The Africat 420 is a robustly built and beautifully finished power cat that is rare on the market. This specific unit, aptly named AFRICA 3, is in impeccable condition and recently upgraded and maintained by its second owners. The first owner kept the boat in Key Largo and used it very lightly in the Florida Keys. The Volvo IPS 500 engines (pod drive transmission) have only 800 hours on them and have been recently serviced for optimum performance. The current owners, who have previously owned top-end sailing multihulls, are currently cruising in the Bahamas.
AFRICA 3 features a 2 cabin/3 head interior layout. The starboard hull is dedicated to the owner with a queen berth aft and a large en-suite with walk-in shower forward. The port hull has a guest cabin aft with queen bunk and en-suite and a large cabin forward with vast storage capacity, walk-in shower, washer/dryer and workshop space. This is an ideal layout for long term liveaboard for a couple or small family.
The IPS500 drives are controlled by electronic throttles from three different positions in the cockpit, interior helm and flybridge. The IPS pods greatly facilitate maneuvers in port and in tight quarters compared to a straight shaft propulsion arrangement. The attached video walk-though details these throttle positions.
AFRICA 3 is a 110V boat originally built for the US market. The current owners added a lithium battery bank and solar panels. The boat is also equipped with a 9KVA Onan generator, water maker, washer dryer to complete the comfort amenities. A brand new Highfield RIB dinghy + Honda outboard is maneuvered on and off the boat with a hydraulic crane positioned on the foredeck.
