Nunca diga que é brasileira em outro país se não tiver a intenção de sambar. Porque com toda certeza vão te pedir pra sambar, é assim por todo o lugar onde passamos. E que bom que o samba ta no sangue brasileiro. 🇧🇷❤️ #vidaabordo #veleiro #samba #brasil #cuba #vidaabordodeumveleiro #pelomundo

I’ve spent the last two days tucked into Osaka, racing to finish the 4th draft of my new book — and somehow, miraculously, I wrapped it early ahead of a November 15th deadline. To celebrate, I wandered to a quiet corner of Dotonbori and found an outdoor café by the canal. As I settled in, a boat drifted past… carrying a live jazz band. New Orleans, floating through Japan. Completely unexpected. Completely perfect. After weeks of travel, interviews, and late-night writing, this moment felt like Osaka’s way of saying, “Good job. Take a breath.” Life is strange and beautiful. Especially in Japan. #Osaka #Japan #Dotonbori #Jazz #TravelJapan #AuthorLife #WritingJourney #BookInProgress #NeverTooLate #SlowTravel #Serendipity #CanalLife #UnexpectedJapan

CATANA 582 Catamaran For Sale By Owner Location: Messolonghi Additional catamaran photos, details, and equipment list as well as owner contact information can be viewed at: https://www.catamaransite.com/catamarans-for-sale/catana-582/ S/V Eidos Cat is a Greece based 2001 Catana 582 catamaran for sale by owner. Catana 582 (2001) - Performance Cruising Catamaran Overview General Information The Catana 582 is a luxury performance cruising catamaran built in 2001 by the prestigious Catana Shipyard and designed by the renowned Christophe Barreau. Currently located in Greece and registered under the Slovenian flag, this yacht has been imported into the EU in 2019 and represents a refined balance of sailing performance and onboard comfort. Design & Construction With a length of 19.00 meters (62.34 feet) and a beam of 9.10 meters (29.86 feet), the Catana 582 offers impressive interior volume and outstanding stability. The hulls are constructed from GRP with a PVC foam core sandwich, delivering a strong yet lightweight structure optimized for performance cruising and bluewater capability. Performance & Rigging Equipped with twin Yanmar 4JH3-DTE 125 HP diesel engines, each showing fewer than 1,100 hours as of September 2024, the vessel provides reliable propulsion when needed. The sailing rig features a 115 m² mainsail, a genoa, and a self-tacking jib—all replaced in 2014—as well as a versatile gennaker added in 2018 for enhanced light-wind performance. The rig is designed for experienced sailors who appreciate responsive handling and speed. The inclusion of daggerboards significantly improves upwind performance and reduces leeway, allowing the Catana 582 to sail closer to the wind and access shallower anchorages when needed. Interior & Accommodations The interior layout is designed with long-term liveaboard comfort in mind. The yacht features a luxurious owner's suite with a private head and shower, two guest cabins each with their own en-suite facilities, and a skipper's cabin currently used for storage, which can be easily reverted to crew quarters. The saloon includes a large round sofa and a custom teak table added in 2018, creating an inviting space for socializing or relaxing. The galley is equipped for spacious and easy cooking. Energy Systems & Autonomy The Catana 582 is outfitted for off-grid living with approximately 1.5 kW of solar power managed by four independent MPPT controllers. The energy storage is provided by a 480AH @ 24V GEL battery bank (replaced in 2020), and power conversion is handled by a Mastervolt Ultra 24/3500 inverter/charger installed in 2018. These systems support extended cruising without reliance on shore power. Summary This Catana 582 stands out as a well-maintained and comprehensively upgraded performance catamaran. Its proven bluewater pedigree, robust construction, and premium liveaboard features make it an exceptional choice for sailors seeking both adventure and comfort at sea.
