Catana Catamarans 411 Recently Reffitted Offshore Performance Catamaran Just Listed

CATANA 411 "NIUE" - FULLY REFITTED, PROVEN BLUEWATER CRUISER - TURN-KEY & NOW IN FIJI
Recently arrived in Fiji for the cruising season, "NIUE" is an exceptional Catana 411 presented in outstanding condition for her age. Renowned for combining exhilarating sailing performance with luxurious comfort, the Catana 411 has earned a legendary reputation among serious offshore sailors, with countless successful circumnavigations to her name.

Designed for fast, safe and comfortable passagemaking, she delivers outstanding windward performance, responsive handling and exceptional offshore capability. Spacious enough to provide genuine liveaboard comfort, yet compact enough to be easily managed by a couple--or even sailed single-handed--she is equally at home on coastal cruising or ocean crossings.

The thoughtfully designed cockpit offers level access to the transoms, making boarding from a dinghy and swimming effortless and safe, while twin aft steering stations provide excellent visibility under sail and when manoeuvourring.

Comprehensive Factory Refit by Catana (France)
What truly sets NIUE apart is her extraordinary factory refit completed by the Catana shipyard in France during 2019-2020. Few yachts of this vintage can match the scope and quality of the work undertaken.

A Proven South Pacific Cruiser
We are the current owners of NIUE, and have lived the cruising lifestyle aboard her throughout our ownership.
After purchasing the yacht, we sailed from Tahiti through the islands down to New Zealand, before returning to Fiji, covering thousands of offshore miles through some of the most spectacular cruising grounds in the world. Throughout the voyage, she consistently demonstrated why the Catana 411 is so highly regarded--fast, safe, comfortable, and exceptionally capable in all conditions.
The entire journey has been documented on our "Another Way of Life" YouTube channel, where prospective buyers can see NIUE sailing offshore, at anchor, and living the reality of extended bluewater cruising.

Fully Equipped for Offshore Cruising
Unlike many yachts on the market, NIUE is offered as a complete cruising package, ready to go immediately.
She comes with a full complement of offshore tools and cruising spares, including drills, grinders, workshop equipment and a substantial onboard inventory of replacement parts. Notably, this includes a spare standing rigging shroud, providing valuable offshore redundancy.
Also included are two folding bicycles, along with numerous additional cruising spares accumulated for long-distance self-sufficient voyaging.

Ready for Her Next Adventure
NIUE is far more than a refitted yacht--she is a proven offshore cruiser that has been professionally upgraded, continuously maintained, and extensively sailed in real bluewater conditions.
She is offered exactly as we have cruised her--fully equipped, comprehensively maintained, and genuinely ready to continue her next adventure.
The sale will be completed as an offshore transaction in accordance with Fiji Customs requirements, ensuring a straightforward process for international buyers.
