For Sale: CATALAC 10M Felix 34' Cruising Cat $94,500 Located in Charleston, SC

[Lynnfairwind]

S/V Felix is for SALE – Rare opportunity for much sought after Catalac 10M in great shape, and ready to sail away! Designed and built in England by Tom Lack, the Catalac 10 is a true blue water cruising cat that is extremely well built, verysea kindly and a super comfortable live aboard. Her solid fiberglass hull is bulletproof and the envy of lesser built small cats. And if you like great visibility – with lots of windows to look out from in every room, then this is the boat for you. It has more windows, and windows that actually open allowing for great ventilation (with screening) than any other boat.



We bought Felix in 2009 to do the Great Loop, East Coast, Keys, Bahamas and whatever else we might dream up. With her newish Twin 30 hp Yanmar Diesel engines, only 3’ draft, and enormous storage she proved to be the perfect boat! We have loved her and lovingly cared for her by adding many upgrades over the years. Now, another dream has come true and we have now purchased a canal boat in France, with the expectation of exploring Europe, thus our decision to sell Felix. This long distance move means that we are not taking our “BOAT STUFF” with us, so we are offering Felix as a turn key deal – tools, cruising books, everything. If you want to go south this winter, north in the spring, or cross the Atlantic, she is ready to go. Hanging out here in Charleston, America’s favorite city, could be a fabulous beginning for your cruising on this GREAT BOAT!


If you are not familiar with the Catalac boats, here are a few quotes taken from the Catalac Catamaransite:
“A Catalac Catamaran, survived the worst recorded storm at sea earning these boats their well deserved reputation as one of the best built boats in the world. Surveyors have been known to refer to Catalacs as the Hinckley of Cruising Catamarans (for those of you who aren't familiar with the term ...it's not an insignificant compliment).”
“…short rigs, aren't particularly fast boats but they have lots of room, they're safe, are well thought out designs and are quality boats which are built like battleships.”
