DUALASEAS is a 2008 Catana 50 in the sought after Owner Version, designed by Christophe Barreau and built by Catana in France.
Named Best Cruising Multihull in Cruising World's 2008 Boat of the Year awards, the Catana 50 is one of the most respected performance cruising catamarans of her generation: vacuum infused foam sandwich construction reinforced with carbon and aramid fiber, daggerboards for real upwind ability and twin aft helm stations.
Always privately owned, well maintained and never chartered, she has known only three owners.
Only lightly used for long distance sailing, she has completed just one Atlantic crossing and one Pacific crossing to Tahiti, where she now lies.
Her level of equipment is simply exceptional, with true offshore redundancy built into every critical system, from energy and navigation to water production, steering and ground tackle.
