Broker's Comments

This Catalac 8M has been with the current owner for over 30 years and will be very sorry to sell her. they have enjoyed many cruises. She is always wintered ashore .
A popular and comfortable cruising Catamaran. She is safe, easy to handle and a good fast passage maker. Ideal for the family due to her excellent accomodation. She could also be cruised through the canals, as her mast can easily be stepped.
These boat details are subject to contract.
Note: Offers on the asking price may be considered.
