2004 Catana 471

The Catana 471 Ocean Class is a performance-oriented cruising catamaran built between 1997 and 2007, designed by naval architect Christophe Barreau. This 2004 example measures 46.92 feet in length with a 25.26-foot beam and is built from fiberglass. The design prioritizes speed and comfort without compromising structural quality, earning the model lasting popularity in the used market. Two Volvo diesel engines, each producing 55 horsepower, provide propulsion.

The layout centers on a sociable interior with a salon that seats up to ten people, oriented to maximize ocean views even from the dining table. A double cabin with a large bed and oversized portholes offers natural light and sea views, with a forward-facing head nearby. The passageway runs spacious and lined with storage—cupboards and hanging lockers throughout. Two heads serve the accommodation.

On deck, the cockpit is expansive with twin offset helm stations positioned to give clear sightlines for sail handling and crew management. A central electric winch aft manages mainsail operations and reefing. The deck runs completely flush and flat, eliminating obstacles and making movement straightforward. A tight trampoline net spans the bridgedeck.

This boat underwent refurbishment during 2024 and 2025.
