Simpson Slipstream 15
2000 Simpson Slipstream 15, fast cruising daggerboard catamaran with a high performance design, definitely one not to be missed. The “Big Galah” is quick, topping out at 19 kts, but also has accommodations, space and specifications suited for extended cruising in comfort.

A graceful bird, pretty as you like on the water, her sleek lines convey a look of speed and agility, not seen often in vessels of this size.

This big CAT has been well maintained with knowledgeable owners completing all upgrades to the highest standards. The work list has been extensive with major items including:

● 2009 Full repaint Hull and topsides
● 2010 New Yanmar 55HP Engines and Gearboxes, new sail drives
● 2015 New standing rigging
● 2016 New Saloon/Galley Sole, Galley Splashbacks, Dinette Upholstery

Just antifouled and having completed a comprehensive in and out of water survey inspection the “Big Galah” is truly a turnkey proposal not to be missed. Call Ensign Brokers Mooloolaba Office now to arrange an inspection- a must to fully appreciate this impressive vessel.
