2002 CATANA 401 OWNER'S VERSION - PROVEN BLUEWATER CATAMARAN
Carbon Mast | Daggerboards | Extensive Recent Refit | Atlantic & Pacific Ocean Crossings | Never Chartered | Australian Registered
Located in South East Queensland, Australia
Offered for sale is TATA, a 2002 Catana 401 Owner's Version, built in France and exceptionally well equipped for serious offshore and long-term cruising.
TATA has had only two owners since new and has never been chartered. With her carbon mast, daggerboards, quality sail wardrobe, extensive cruising equipment and substantial inventory of spare parts, she represents an opportunity to purchase a genuinely proven ocean-going Catana.
Most importantly, TATA isn't simply equipped for bluewater cruising -- she has done it.
She has crossed both the Atlantic and Pacific Oceans, transited the Panama Canal, cruised extensively throughout the Mediterranean and successfully sailed all the way to Australia.
TATA'S STORY
I am listing TATA on behalf of my father, Bill, who purchased her in Greece in 2018 directly from the original owner.
Owning a capable bluewater cruising catamaran had been a lifelong dream for Bill, and TATA gave him the opportunity to make that dream a reality.
Together, Bill and TATA spent years cruising throughout the Mediterranean and enjoying countless unforgettable adventures.
When COVID changed his plans, Bill made the decision to sail TATA home to Australia.
What followed was an incredible bluewater voyage. TATA crossed the Atlantic Ocean, transited the Panama Canal and then crossed the Pacific Ocean on her journey to Australia.
Over thousands of nautical miles and multiple oceans, TATA proved herself to be a capable, comfortable and dependable offshore cruising catamaran.
Having fulfilled his lifelong dream and safely brought TATA home to Australia, Bill has now decided it is time for her next chapter and another owner to enjoy everything this boat has to offer.

A GENUINELY PROVEN BLUEWATER CATAMARAN
TATA is not a boat that has simply been fitted out with the intention of one day going offshore.
She has already done it.
She has cruised the Mediterranean, crossed the Atlantic Ocean, transited the Panama Canal, crossed the Pacific Ocean and sailed to Australia.
With her carbon mast, daggerboards, extensive recent refit, twin Yanmar diesels, 800W solar system, 480Ah house bank, watermaker, comprehensive navigation and communications equipment, substantial safety equipment and enormous inventory of spare parts, TATA is set up for an owner looking to continue cruising rather than start from scratch.
After years of adventures and fulfilling Bill's lifelong dream, the time has come for TATA to take her next owners on theirs.
Located in South East Queensland, Australia.
