...AND CATANA 42 CUTS AHEAD OF THE COMPETITION

Queensland’s distributor Multihull Solutions will display a new Catana 42 demonstrator model at Sanctuary Cove.

The company says the fully optioned Catana 42 demo will include performance hydranet sails, bowsprit with gennaker, carbon bimini, textile lifelines, solar panels, Garmin electronic pack, LED lights, and Alcantara interior.

According to Multihull Solutions, the Catana 42 recorded nearly 22kts during recent European sea trials.

“The fiery catamaran is demanding attention from buyers, media and industry experts alike with its ability to harness the slightest gust and deliver fast and outstanding offshore performances,” said the company.

The Catana 42’s ability to sail at speeds is said to be due to its “comprehensive range of technical innovations, exclusive to the Catana shipyard”. They are said to include the catamaran’s unique beam/length ratio, adjustable daggerboards, tilted and tulip-shaped bows, aerodynamic coach-roof and torpedo-shaped hulls.

The cat has been built using a carbon infusion process (standard on all Catana models) that the manufacturer says ensures the Catana 42 is an incredibly high-performance, light and resistant boat.

Multihull Solutions is the exclusive importer and distributor of Catana in Australia and New Zealand.
