Used Catana 58 Sailboats for Sale

The Catana 58 stands as a definitive benchmark from the era when Catana Catamarans, under the design leadership of Christophe Barreau, dominated the high-performance cruising market. Built in the late 1990s and early 2000s, this model was engineered for experienced sailors who demanded the ability to cover 200-plus nautical miles a day in absolute security. Constructed at the Canet-en-Roussillon yard in France, the 58 utilized advanced composite techniques for its time, incorporating vacuum-bagged foam cores and significant carbon fiber reinforcement in high-load areas. This focus on weight management allows the vessel to maintain a high bridge-deck clearance, a critical design element that minimizes "slamming" in heavy seas—a common complaint in lesser-built multihulls. The model eventually evolved into the refined Catana 581 and the ultra-luxurious 582, both of which utilized the same high-performance hull mold while iterating on interior ergonomics and weight distribution.
