{"id":34,"count":19,"description":"The 12M Catalac 41 is a limited production cruising catamaran designed for live aboard cruisers and perfect for passage making.  These boats offer a seven berth layout in spacious style with furnishing and trimmings to match. Designed for living in style Full standing 6\u2032 5\u2033 headroom in both hulls and wheelhouse, and of course plenty of room when you sit down to your meal in the main saloon  making entertaining on the Catalac an absolute pleasure. The galley is located in the port hull and offers hot and cold pressurized water, a refrigerator, a four burner hob, oven and stainless steel sink with integral draining board. The central saloon area with its octagonal table has permanent seating for five in luxury on 6 inch thick cushions, with more than ample elbow room. Everywhere you\u2019ll discover masses of locker space.\r\n\r\nThese boats have the reputation of being a very well built, seaworthy boat and have been called the best live aboard cruising catamaran ever made.  The interior steering position is just aft of the saloon. Full instrumentation and dual controls for the twin diesels, plus all the desirable navigational aids are standard. Space is also available for a radar display. The helmsman\u2019s built-in seat provides a high degree of comfort for any watches spent at the wheel, in the company of those relaxing in the saloon. \r\n\r\nThese boats have another great feature common to all Catalacs which are the cabin windows. They actually open. The first position is 1\/2 open which allows airflow in rain storms without allowing water in the boat. The 2nd position is completely removed, and window screens can be fitted into the window openings.   This is a perfect example of the thought that went into the cabin design. Airflow remains constant leaving the cabin comfortable in tropical climates. All windows in a Catalac are tempered glass and look as good today as the day they were installed 25 years ago. Yes, this is a rare and rather expensive feature when compared to the plastic windows in most cruising catamarans, yet it\u2019s entirely worth it as it\u2019s another reason why these boats seem to age gracefully.","link":"https:\/\/www.yachtsite.com\/brand\/catalac-12m\/","name":"Catalac 12M","slug":"catalac-12m","taxonomy":"brand","parent":28,"meta":[],"acf":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.yachtsite.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/brand\/34","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.yachtsite.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/brand"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.yachtsite.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/taxonomies\/brand"}],"up":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.yachtsite.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/brand\/28"}],"wp:post_type":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.yachtsite.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/reference?brand=34"},{"href":"https:\/\/www.yachtsite.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/yachts-for-sale?brand=34"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
