Zorba is a 43ft custom catamaran built by Composite Yacht Constructions (now Asia Catamarans) under the management of marine carpenter Roger Diggleman. The boat is a Contraste 44 designed by Jacques Fioleau (French naval architect known for designing light performance catamarans).
The build is plywood epoxy, with 4 watertight bulkheads and a displacement of 8000kg.
The aim of this catamaran is to combine performance, comfort, and safety for extended cruising. The boat has several key features:
o Daggerboards for better upwind performance.
o Light displacement and good sail plan making her very fast
o Rigid extended coachroof for a fully protected cockpit
o Abundant storage throughout, many smart ventilation systems for cabins and engine rooms, rain water collection system
o A simple setup for long-range fast cruising without complications!
The boat is an owners version 3 double cabins, and large bathroom forward on starboard side. The saloon opens fully into cockpit making for open plan living including a lounging area (and 2nd double bunk if you wanted), large cockpit table with seating for 6-8 and a good sized galley in U that faces forwards. The interior is a balance of teak and white painted joinery, offering a bright, easy-to-maintain interior space.
Zorba has been well maintained over the years with regular equipment additions:
- 2024 mainsail North Sails square top pro radial dacron full battens 59m2
- 2017 gennaker North Sails 80m2
- 2014 self-taking solent North Sails
- 2022 new Rocna anchor and chain
- 2021 new house batteries
- W Sunpower flex solar panels: 2 installed and 2 spare, with Victron mppt charter controllers
- 2021 new 220v 800W Victron inverter
- 2023 new 3m rigid inflatable dingy
- 2023 new 18hp Tohatsu outboard
- 2024 haulout for full antifouling and sail drive servicing
The boat is berthed in the south of Tahiti and ready to sail. The Papeete tax is paid so her new owner can continue to enjoy this region if wanted.
