2019 Catana 47

DOMINI is the last Catana 47 built. The 47 epitomises all that you would expect from a Catana, and many consider the 47 to be the ultimate Catana. She delivers excellent sailing characteristics which can be achieved when handling short-handed; a great hull design, dagger-boards and a well-designed rig and deck layout are combined with a displacement which is light enough to deliver sparkling performance but is still able to carry the equipment and supplies needed for comfortable long-range cruising. A difficult balance to achieve but having done so, the Catana 47 is a compelling option, and DOMINI represents a great opportunity. To quote the builder: “The Catana 47 is the ideal boat for any adventure, whether it’s a round-the-world trip, or simply island hopping from deserted bay to tropical lagoon. Imagine yourself at the helm of a high-performance catamaran with the power to maintain high average speeds over long distances. Timed at almost 25 knots during initial trials, the Catana 47 is fast, light, robust and exceptionally easy to handle, giving both helmsman and passengers an incredible sensation of speed and acceleration.” The current owners have sailed some 40,000 miles, yet the engines have run only a little over 1,000 hours which speaks for itself. Her condition is excellent evidencing careful ownership and proactive maintenance. - Carefully used, very well-maintained by her only owners since new - Widely respected as Catana’s best-ever design, DOMINI is the last 47 to be built - Dagger-boards for upwind performance and a high nacelle to help manage bigger seas - Boom is set low to hard-top making access to the mainsail easy - Light enough to deliver sparkling performance under sail but still able to carry cruising loads - All lines are led aft, making her easy to handle short-handed - Excellent owners' suite occupies the entire starboard hull, plus two guest cabins in the port hull - Great cruising spec with good RIB, ample solar and the possibility to acquire a huge inventory of spares and equipment for long-distance cruising - Onan genset from 2021, refurbished water-maker, JP3 bearings replaced - Starlink installed in 2024, instruments and many electricals renewed in 2024 - Anti-fouled April 2025, berth paid until May 2026 - New black trampolines and dagger-boards were serviced in September 2025 - Engines and Genset serviced April 2026 The whole mould is composed of three main parts, with joint surfaces at the keel connections. The mould of the platform and inner half-hulls is in one part to ensure maximum rigidity. The hull has a white gelcoat finish. As for many years, the hull is built with a sandwich foam infusion using Vinylester and Polyester resin. The structure is reinforced with Monolithics, Aramid fibre reinforcements using the Twaron® Impact process and above all, in order to optimise weight, certain parts of the hull are now 100% carbon such as the chain plate zones and horizontal stiffening s
