The Catana 53 is a composite catamaran built for offshore cruising, combining performance sailing with comfortable long-range accommodations. At 53 feet with a 28-foot beam, the hull employs Catana's lightweight infused construction and includes daggerboards for efficient sailing dynamics. The boat is powered by twin Yanmar diesel engines of 160 horsepower each.
The design prioritizes both seaworthiness and onboard refinement. Key features include a performance rig, raised helm position, and the hull form and systems typical of Catana's offshore cruising platform. The boat was specified with extensive factory options and equipped from new for extended passagemaking.
This example was built as a private owner's boat and used exclusively for personal cruising, never chartered. The single-owner history and careful setup reflect an owner focused on genuine ocean-going capability combined with the comfort standards of a premium cruising catamaran.
