The Swiss Cat 55 "Aurora," built in 2009, embodies the pinnacle of excellence in premium offshore cruising catamarans.
With its three spacious cabins and three bathrooms, it is one of only three units ever built of this prestigious model.
"Aurora" is fully equipped, features recent sails, and has been meticulously maintained, making it ready for immediate sailing. Designed for offshore adventure, it stands out as a unique opportunity on the market, offering an unmatched level of performance and comfort.
This catamaran boasts a remarkable history: initially owned by the builder, it was later sold to a second English owner for three years before transitioning to co-ownership with its current owners, who now hold full ownership.
"Aurora" is registered in the British Virgin Islands (excluding VAT) and is currently available in Martinique. It can be viewed throughout the Caribbean, depending on its sailing schedule.
The sale is in US Dollars.
