2021 GARCIA EXPLOCAT 52 - Owner's version !!!
RARE AND FIRST OPPORTUNITY ON THE !!!! MARKET
After 3 magical years spent exploring the most idyllic anchorages in the Mediterranean and the Caribbean, Explocat 52 number 2 is now on sale.
With the Exploration range catamaran, Garcia Yachts, naval architect Pierre Delion and Darnet Design have pooled the best of their experience and know-how to create the ultimate cruising yacht. Elegance and comfort have been the hallmarks of Garcia Yachts production for the past 45 years, enhancing the seaworthy qualities of this unit.
Two shallow-draught aluminum hulls, able to withstand the hazards of the most extreme ocean voyages; bows able to withstand any storm, with complete peace of mind: the Explocat 52 is perfectly in line with Garcia's historical heritage.
Maneuverable by two or with a small crew, it offers safe, comfortable shelter for the crew in all sea conditions. Its generous sails and controlled weight make the miles fly by like never before, in first-class comfort.
A subtle synthesis of proven solutions and innovation, the Explocat 52 offers a truly unique sailing experience. So much so, in fact, that British sailor Pete Goss describes it as the ideal machine for "pushing the limits" of catamaran sailing.
A meticulous deck layout, a rigid platform, a generous sail plan, generously dimensioned fittings and meticulous ergonomics: the Explocat 52 is the result of thousands of hours of engineering, discussion and reflection, for an exclusive result. With the choice to offer maximum protection and ease of maneuvering to its crew, even the smallest.
Its carrying capacity, the size of its water tanks (total volume 600L) or fuel tanks (1000L), the various on-board energy sources: all these criteria allow you to envisage the most remote sailing projects. The Explocat 52 is the new benchmark in blue water cruising catamarans, for a program without limits.
SEVEN, the Explocat 52 number 2, is an obviously customized version designed to offer a family, a couple or a small crew the possibility of comfortable long-range cruising and a high degree of autonomy. It features an owner's hull and a guest hull. The "guest" hull features two beautiful cabins, a spacious bathroom and plenty of storage space. The owner's cabin , located on the starboard side, also features a large cabin, an office and a large bathroom. Plenty of storage space has been provided for life on board. The engine room is located in the very large port bow peak. The saloon can be converted into a double berth, comfortably accommodating up to 8 people on board.
