Additional Information

The Nautitech 46 Fly is a performance-oriented catamaran. She has a foam core construction and is almost 10k pounds lighter than many other catamarans in this size range.  Many popular brands in this range emphasize comfort.  We urge any interested catamaran buyers to consider weight and keel design while shopping.  Performance of the Nautitech 46 under sail will not disappoint.

ABILITY has been lightly used and never chartered. Her three cabin arrangement offers generous space for all guests; the flybridge is the largest and most accommodating of any cats in this range.

With low hours, an innovative, cutting-edge electrical system, new sails and excellent maintenance, ABILITY is the best offering among all of the late model, flybridge catamarans.
