Catana 531 Specifications
Rob Roy III is hull number 5 (of 5). She is an exceptional performance catamaran designed by renowned architect, Christoph Barreau, with a weight of 28T, fully-enclosed cockpit, and large sail area. We crossed the Atlantic 3 times in the last 2 years, the most recent passage with 3 children on board. She has proven her safety, performance, and comfort.
Built in an era where quality was more important than price point, she is safe, fast, and seaworthy making it the perfect choice for family cruising.
€100,000+ (US$110,000+) was invested over the past year on maintenance and upgrades. Her bones and systems are in great condition, but the new owner may prefer to freshen some interior cosmetic details.
