Chamberlain 42 Bluewater Cruising Cat

A FABULOUS, READY TO GO, SHAFT DRIVE, BLUE WATER CRUISING CATAMARAN.
Hulls and deck built with immense strength in lightweight closed cell foam / fibreglass sandwich by OSTAC catamarans, Brisbane, and interior professionally fitted by the original owner who was a highly skilled timber craftsman. Entry is via courtesy lit transon steps into the spacious cockpit protected by an extended hardtop. The steering station is to port forward in the cockpit. The nav station is within reach of the helm and forward of this is the saloon which is light, bright and welcoming. It can seat 8-10 people. There are two queen cabins forward and two single cabins aft. There is a full walk in shower module with a door in the bathroom in the port hull midships, that has a toilet plumbed to a lectra san system under the wash basin. There is a second electric head aft in the starboard hull.
The spacious galley midhsips to starboard is equipped with a two burner gas stove/oven /grill, twin stainless sinks, a massive amount of storage. The galley is open to the saloon so the chef can see and communicate with the rabble in the saloon. There is plenty of ventilation in the galley with an overhead hatch and two opening ports in the hull.
Graceful Lady being light yet immensely strong with a powerful rig, sails exceptionally well on all points of sail.
