The Catana 471 is widely regarded by multihull purists as the zenith of the French shipyard’s "performance-cruising" era. Launched in 1998 and designed by the esteemed Christophe Barreau, the 471 was the successor to the original Catana 47. It represented a significant leap forward in production technology, utilizing vacuum-bagged construction and Twaron (aramid fiber) to create a hull that was exceptionally stiff yet light enough to maintain high speeds in light air. Unlike the modern trend toward "floating condos," the 471 was engineered for the sailor who prioritizes passage-making speeds and the ability to point high into the wind—a feat made possible by its signature deep-draft daggerboards.
