Boat Description
Owner’s version Catana 44 catamaran, which was our family home for over a year. Designed by Lock Crowther and custom built at the French Catana yard, she is the only Catana with a factory-built, protected inside third helm station. She is a well built, high performance, ocean proven vessel. Her daggerboard design allows for greater performance when sailing upwind, and reduced drag when cruising downwind. An additional benefit of her shallow draft is the ability to drop anchor close to shore or navigate shallow cuts.
She comes complete with all stores, full complement of tools, spares, and misc dive gear. She is a very comfortable live aboard with a roomy, well thought out galley-up design handy to the big cockpit table. The master cabin (port) and two guest cabins (starboard) have queen beds, with a third twin sized cabin in the starboard forepeak for extra crew or guests. The two heads are electric and each have a dedicated shower. Her solar array provides plenty of power. Curtiseas has never been chartered and has been carefully maintained. She is ready to continue cruising by just moving aboard. She is US registered and currently on the US East Coast (Chesapeake Bay).
The hull and deck were vacuum bagged using polyester isopthalic resin cored with closed cell foam with unidirectional cloth for outer laminate and anti-osmosis epoxy resin below the waterline. The hulls were reinforced with Twaron inner laminate.
*** Major price improvement due to a recent survey which reported moisture intrusion to the deck, which is not uncommon for a vessel of this age. No structural damage or delamination was reported and the coring is foam above the solid glass core below waterline in the hulls. Topside core is balsa. A moisture survey was subsequently commissioned by an independent surveyor to confirm the status since prior surveys conflict with this information. Recent survey results indicated that the boat shows elevated moisture levels in the topsides and upper hulls. Full report available upon request.
