Broker's Comments
The Catalac 8m Catamaran are well regarded for their excellent sea-keeping, stability and sturdy construction. In fact you will find quite a number of them across the pond in North America having successfully sailed there.
The interior offers good family accommodation with a saloon seating area between hulls and the galley to starboard. The separate heads is located forward in the port hull and then the single berths are aft of this. The main large double is forward of the saloon and is accessed via the starboard hull form the galley area.
Arrangements to view can be arranged in advance 6-days a week by contacting the Boatshed Essex office direct.
