SARINA - Ocean-going cruising catamaran, Ron Given

A legendary catamaran with a genuine voyaging pedigree !
Sarina is the very first offshore cruising catamaran designed by Ron Given, following on from his racing catamaran Split Enz (1980). Custom-built in New Zealand at the Grant Mitchell yard, she completed a circumnavigation with her first owner between 1987 and 1989.

Key strengths
Light, stiff and high-performing, with very fast upwind behaviour
Easy to handle single-handed
Simple maintenance and repairs
Red cedar and epoxy construction, highly water-resistant

A well-maintained, refitted boat
She has had five owners. The current owner has had her for 20 years, 9 of them living aboard.
In 2024, Sarina underwent a six-month refit: resealing of the saloon, re-laminating of the deck and saloon, and a complete repaint for an immaculate finish.

On board
Very bright, with a generous central living space. Owner's version in the starboard hull and three cabins in the port hull. No major work required: she is ready to go cruising again.
