Manta MKII 42 (Florida)

Asking $350,000 (USD)
Location Stuart (Florida)
S/V Tiki Hej is a 2005 Manta MKII 42-foot for sale by owner.
We are docked at Sunset Bay Marina in Stuart, Florida. Love this yacht and lifestyle but it’s time for us to move on. Six years ago we looked at all the other catamaran brands and were disappointed with so many impractical design decisions for our needs–until we came across a Manta. It was love at first sight and we’ve never regretted that decision. So easy to single hand sail, good performance, safe, blue water proven, and ICW friendly–more destinations and weather options.…

Aboard S/V Steal Breeze: A 1997 Manta 40 Catamaran

Caught on the hard and waiting to get back in the water, the 1997 Manta 40 S/V Steal Breeze gets a brief but telling walkthrough in this video tour. The clip is short and practical — the kind of quick pass a cruiser gives a boat that’s mid-refit rather than staged for a boat show — but it covers the details buyers tend to ask about first. Top of the list: new bottom paint, applied while she’s hauled out. From there the tour moves forward along the walk-on forward scoop, past the storm anchor, and into the accommodations, where new solar fans have been fitted in both heads — a small but genuinely useful upgrade for ventilation in the tropics.…

Aboard S/V Steal Breeze: A 1997 Manta 40 on the Chesapeake

The walkthrough of S/V Steal Breeze, a 1997 Manta 40 lying on the Chesapeake Bay, is short and to the point — but it covers the ground that matters most to a liveaboard or long-range cruising buyer: where you sleep, where you cook, and where everything else goes. Salon, galley and nav station The tour opens in the salon before stepping into the galley, where the narration highlights “plenty of storage” — a recurring theme aboard this boat. Boat hooks and a stereo system are noted in passing, and the walkthrough then moves back to the nav station, a proper dedicated chart-table area rather than an afterthought.…
