The start of the One Circular Quay Australian Maxi Championship SOLAS Big Boat Challenge saw Master Lock Comanche lead the fleet down the harbour. Bow Caddy tracked her from our boat and this is the result from a hand-held non-gimballed camera with Master Lock Comanche reaching speeds of around 25 knots plus. It was an impressive sight. Great driving from Stu Don.

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.
