This St. Francis 48' catamaran is a luxurious, well-built, and performance-oriented vessel designed for both comfort and adventure on the open water. With her sleek lines and distinctive design, this vessel is renowned for its stability, speed, and a spacious interior. Known for offering a smooth sailing experience while providing plenty of room for both relaxation and entertaining. "Oceans" has a weight of only 24,251.00 lbs which directly benefit the vessel's handling and speed! Her Superb construction consists of one mold for the deck and one mold for the hulls/bridge-deck, both of which are cored with closed cell foam from the waterline up and thick fiberglass below using quadriaxial non-crimp fabric, isopthalic resin, and NPG gel coat for strength and weight reduction. This superior material and build process keep the vessel light without sacrificing strength and minimize the need for repairs over time.

Designed by Angelo Lavranos, the St. Francis catamaran is a superb choice for coastal cruisers, live-aboard, and serious voyagers. "Oceans" has the strength and quality to go anywhere with magnificent overall performance. High bridge deck clearance with outstanding deck and handling ergonomics make her a true joy to sail in rough water. The real teak and holly floors give a distinguished "yachty" feel inside; she's a true “home away from home”. Her furniture and cabinets are to a much higher standard than you'll find on most mass production cats. "Oceans" is in truly excellent cosmetic and mechanical condition. Constantly maintained by her current owners who have been living aboard since the Spring of 2016. She is turn-key and ready to take on the world.

The exterior of the catamaran features a large, open deck with ample space for sunbathing, dining, or lounging, with easy access to the water via sugar scoops. The  cockpit is designed for comfort, and safety. Featuring ample seating and a spacious helm area for smooth navigation allowing the skipper to see all four corners of the catamaran making docking a breeze. The deck is equipped with impressive storage capacity, including room for sails, equipment, and gear.

The interior boasts a stylish, functional layout with plenty of natural light and ventilation. The main salon is spacious and well-appointed, featuring a large dining area, a comfortable seating arrangement, and a fully-equipped galley with fantastic counter space. It offers four well-designed staterooms with three heads and showers ensuring impressive comfort and privacy for guests.

Under sail, the St. Francis 48 is highly responsive, with a well-balanced rig and powerful sails that make it a joy to handle in a variety of conditions. Its efficient hull design ensures good performance even in light winds, while its stability and reduced heeling make it an excellent choice for cruising in comfort. Whether used for coastal cruising or long-distance ocean voyages, this is a versatile catamaran that combines performance with luxurious living spaces, making it a perfect option for sailors looking for both adventure and relaxation.
