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.

#DoubleTrapeze #iFLY15 #Foiling double in the trapeze with the i'FLY15 for the first time with coach. Nice review : Philip Walker, recreational / family sailor from Switzerland, Lake Murten: « As a mid-40 year-old with 3 young children, a busy life, moderate fitness, some past but no recent sailing and windsurfing experience, but absolutely no catamaran experience; I watched the same iFly15 youtube videos you have, I eyed the price tag and then for a long while I just sat there on the fence with excuses. When was I really going to find the time to sail the thing, was this not just an expensive mid-life crisis toy, was I even going to be able to sail it, how was I going to get it out of the harbour without crashing, could I right it if I capsized, what if I could not control it? The indecision was my comfort zone, not taking the plunge into the unknown was in my safe place. And then I finally took the plunge, I deserved something for me, and those youtube videos just looked like too much damn fun! Still feeling like this could be an expensive mistake, Michael came to assemble the boat, and to be honest gave me a crash course in all things catamaran. We went out on the water together, the two of us out on the trapeze, and for several glorious runs we foiled, I was immediately hooked! Several weeks later came the tough part, just me, 11-15 knots of wind, white caps, and my iFly15. The excuses and fears came back. Last time it was easy, but that was all Michael, he isn’t here now, this time it was just me. Apprehension, fear, the unknown. I followed the steps in setting the boat up, got the boat out without incident and despite my fears multiple foiling runs, out on the trapeze, speed, whining sound of foils in the water, the full monty! I capsized once and that was not because of being overpowered it was because I lost my footing, and righting the boat went smoothly and without incident. The secret of the iFly15 is it is a highly technical machine made to be easy to sail and incredibly accessible. It is compact with not too much sail area and it is very easy to take the power out of the sail and to comfortably sit in an upward position and catch your breath. Safe and in control, on my first day alone out on the water I finally understood what a great boat this is, and I absolutely love it! »
