Catana 47
Catana 47: Technical Specifications
Design Christophe Barreau
Interior Design Linea Concept
Length 14,02 m (46 feet)
Beam 7,6 m (25 feet)
This is a key launch as the Catana 471 was
Draft, boards up 0,75 m (2.46 feet)
probably the most successful of all of the
Draft, boards down 2,80 m (9.19 feet)
Catana models launched. It is a legendary
Light displacement 10,9 T
boat as it embodied all that a successful
Mast clearance 21,5 m (70.54 feet)
Mast length 19,5 m (64 feet)
performance cruiser should have.
Main Sail 88 m2 (947 sqft)
Genoa 53 m2 (570.5 sqft)
Gennaker 80 m2 (861 sqft)
The 47 is much smaller than the 50 which has been criticised
Engines (Saildrive) 2 x 39 HP
as being too heavy. The 47 is lighter, faster and the builders
hope still a Catana and true to the shipyards heritage.
Fresh water capacity 670 L (177 US Gal)
Fuel capacity 600 L (158.5 US Gal)
Initial reaction at Cannes Boat Show as positive – we wait to Black water capacity 55 L (15 US Gal)
try it!
