Description
NADI is a proven blue water circumnavigating catamaran. Angelo Lavranos designed this 48 ft Knysna to give the owners confidence to go anywhere they would like to go in comfort and speed. This design, with the high bows, long waterline and ample bridge deck clearance makes for great sailing in almost all conditions.
The bright interior, large staterooms and heads, make life very comfortable.
Owner statement:
We bought the boat for the comfort and build quality of the Knysna brand. After an extensive refit we set sail through the Bahamas the Exuma chain just my wife and me. The boat sails wonderfully in 15-20 knots of wind sailing at 7-9 knots even in heavier weather.
We spent 6 months in the Bahamas making great friends all through the Exuma chain. Then we sailed north Jamaica making our way down to Panama. The sail was wonderful with 20-30 knots of wind. We were reefed the whole time, still making 7.5 knots average. with 8-12ft swell on the beam the boat still felt safe and comfortable.
From Pamana we sailed to Saint Andres and Providencia. We spent several months there enjoying the water and Colombian culture. From Providencia we sailed to the Cayman Islands averaging over 180 miles a day. Then from Cayman we sailed back to Florida and found out we were going to have a baby.
The boat is built super well and strong and I don't have anything bad to say about the design and construction of the boat. After 4 years of living on board it was a very pleasant home.
