Switch 51 built 2000 lying North Carolina, U.S.A. The Switch 51 is a luxury performance catamaran fully equipped and ready for long distance voyaging. All systems on this Switch 51 have been meticulously maintained and upgraded to very high standards. A retrofit was completed in January 2012, replacing most of the electronics as well as the batteries.
This is a turnkey opportunity!
Switch 51 “Following Tides” is a very well appointed and upgraded Switch 51 and fast. Yet, with her cutter rig, she is easily sailed by a couple. Over the past few years she has had several major upgrades. She sails circles around a Catana 471. In fact, during the Transcaraibes De Passion rally this catamaran won every single leg. On the leg from Puerto Rico to Cuba she finished 6 hours ahead of her closest competitor, an Outremer 53 catamaran. She averaged 16 knots for 12 hours! You might think, well, this is a racing cat. Not so. She is a luxurious high performance cruiser designed for short-handed sailing by Marc Van-Peteghem and Lauriot Prevost who have designed all of the Lagoon catamarans. The Switch is a Lagoon on steroids. She was built with super high-tech construction and carries dual carbon fiber daggerboards, so she points like a bandit into the wind. Here is a chance to own a fabulous performance cruising cat at substantial discount.
The owners raced the boat in Antigua Sailing Week in 2007 and won every race as well as overall in her class. She corrected out over all 200+ boats in her division in every race as well.
The owners have done two trans-Atlantic crossings with the boat, spending 1-1/2 years in the Mediterranean. They've also cruised the Caribbean extensively and spent the last two season cruising the Bahamas, including the Exumas, Raggeds & Jumentos. This boat is well maintained and ready to take you wherever your heart desires. Owner is willing to assist or sail boat to Mediterranean or South Pacific with/for new owner.
Twin Yanmar 56hp 4JH3E diesel engines. One new 2006; one completely rebuilt at that time; both with very low hours.
Twin Yanmar SD-31 saildrives.
Twin new 17" Flex-o-Fold propellers installed November 2012.
