Brief
Rob Roy III is an exceptional performance catamaran. Designed by renowned architect Christoph Barreau, with a weight of 28T, fully enclosed cockpit and large sail area. Built in an era where quality was more important than price point, she is safe, fast and sea worthy making it the perfect choice for a family.
Hull number 5 has the configuration of an upstairs galley, with 2 king cabins and 2 double cabins, all en suite, positioned in the wings, giving a feel of space with long hallways.
She has benefited from over 100,000 Euros maintenance and upgrades in the last year. The new owner may feel they want to pay some attention to some interior cosmetic details.
Having crossed The Atlantic 3 times in the last 2 years, the most recent time with 3 children on board she has proven her safety, performance and comfort.
Broker's note:
Catana entered the catamaran market in the 1980's. Loch Crowther, a visionary designer of the era, valued sailing performance and safety at sea as highly as interior space and luxury. This 53' is a big, beautiful and a wonderful sailing boat. It is also well refit, and offers a very safe platform for long range sailing.
Rob Roy III is a perfect boat for fans of current performance cruisers whose criteria starts with daggerboards, and whose idea of sailing means turning off the engines, and going sailing! That may seem like an obvious objective....but.....
Have a look at this boat. She is lying in Grenada which is a perfect starting point for starting a serious sailing adventure!
