Manta 40 Catamaran - "Escape Velocity"
Seaspray Yacht Sales is pleased to present "Escape Velocity, " a proven bluewater cruising catamaran now available at Rebak Marina. The current owner purchased the vessel in 2021, and while she hasn't seen heavy use since the COVID period, she has benefited from several thoughtful upgrades during that time.
The Manta 40 is a well-regarded American-built catamaran, constructed by Endeavour Yachts, and known for solid, durable composite construction and genuine bluewater capability. These boats were purpose-built for private owners--not charter fleets--making them a favoured choice among experienced cruisers seeking a strong, stable platform for long-range passages or extended time at anchor.
Key features that make the Manta 40 stand out:
3-cabin, 2-head layout with a private master suite in one hull and two guest cabins in the other
Large GRP hardtop providing excellent sun protection, ample space for solar panels, convenient sail handling, and secure dinghy stowage
Easy to sail with self-tacking jib and all control lines led to the cockpit for safe, single-handed operation
Spacious interior and cockpit ideal for comfortable living aboard and entertaining
Generous beam of 21 feet providing stability and living space
About Rebak Marina...
"Escape Velocity" is currently berthed at Rebak Island Marina, one of Langkawi's primary yachting facilities. Being located on a private island just off Langkawi's main beachfront offers distinct advantages:
- Secure, well-protected marina with a dredged channel accessible at most tides
- Resort-style amenities including a swimming pool, spa, private beach, fitness centre, tennis courts, and multiple dining options
- Convenient access via scheduled boat transfers to Cenang Port, with Langkawi International Airport just a short journey away
- Serene, secluded setting away from the mainland's hustle, yet close enough to explore when desired
Langkawi is Malaysia's primary yachting centre and the main service hub for vessels moving between Thailand and the Malacca Strait. This makes it an ideal base for your next adventure:
Practical Advantages:
- Duty-free status provides significant savings on alcohol, packaged goods, and provisions
- Reliable provisioning with several large supermarkets and a consistent fish market
- Comprehensive marine services including haul-out yards, mechanical and electrical technicians, sailmakers, and riggers
- Clear entry formalities as a designated port of entry
