Nirvana is a superb example of a quality, blue water cruising catamaran - fully equipped and ready to set sail anywhere with confidence and peace of mind. Launched by Voyage Yachts and built to withstand the demanding conditions of the South African coast and beyond, Nirvana features solid GRP construction below the waterline and closed cell foam sandwich above - ensuring a robust, ocean capable vessel.
She has recently undergone an extensive refit to bring her to true turn key condition. Notable upgrades include:
* Full hull and exterior respray in 2-pack polyurethane marine paint
* Completely repowered in 2022 with twin 57hp Yanmar diesel engines and new SD60 saildrives
* Upgraded electrical system with Victron components and a lithium house battery bank
* Enhanced navigation electronics: B&G Zeus3 (15" at helm, 10" at nav station), B&G Triton, Raymarine autopilot, Halo 24 radar, Starlink Wi-Fi + router
* 2022 Highfield rigid inflatable tender with custom chaps
* 30hp Tohatsu outboard with electric start (New 2022)
* Boom crane for dinghy lifting to aft cradle
* Village Marine 75L/hr (20 GPH) watermaker
* New refrigeration unit (2025)
Under sail, her wide beam and powerful rig - combined with a full suite of quality cruising sails - make her a pleasure to sail across a wide range of conditions. The sail wardrobe includes a fully battened mainsail with stack pack, jib, screecher, and asymmetrical spinnaker, all managed via two electric primary winches and two manual winches.
When motoring, enjoy quiet, reliable performance from the twin 57hp Yanmar engines with very low hours.
Below deck, she offers four generously sized queen cabins, each with its own private ensuite. The galley is well laid out and practical, featuring ample storage and refrigeration - perfect for long term liveaboard cruising.
Nirvana is fully equipped, recently antifouled in May 2025 and ready for you to move aboard and start your cruising adventure today.
