Scape 40 Sport for sale in Durban, South Africa

Dual Flyer is a stunning 40' Scape Yacht. The owner has said she turned out better than he could have ever expected and sails better than originally advertised. This is a twin cabin layout with an open deck for entertaining that also includes single bunks in each bow. Dual Flyer includes a salon and full galley that is easily accessible in each hull. This is a mid engine boat with saildrives which increases maneuverability under power and will turn on a dime. The North Sails have been upgraded to their NorLam cross-linked PET resin system. This further reduces heat, water, and UV degradation in a performance sail. This an great sailing catamaran with an open layout and an abundance of amenities.  

Dual Flyer can be sailed short handed with all lines and winches controlled from one central location. She includes asymmetrical dagger boards to create lift for a faster pace overwater, easily reaching 25 knots. The entire catamaran, including hulls and benches are manufactured with epoxy and foam sandwich construction throughout (no wood). Both the main sail and jib are self-tacking. To increase durability, longevity, and further weight savings, all stanchions are made of carbon fiber. In big seas, the bridgedeck is a meter off the water encouraging the boat to not slam and stay dry as each hull is designed to be closed off for a water tight seal.  

*Option to upgrade to full electric engines after purchase.
