About
Manta Catamarans are very well respected for their construction, thoughtfully design and ease of handling for a couple or single handing.
Valinor, unfortunately, has been idle for 4 years and needs an ambitious sailor to get her back to sailing condition. Refitting this boat can probably be done below market value.
The hull is very sound and all the normal attributes of the Manta 42 Mk 2 line.
Pluses:
Sound hull
Excellent construction
Generator is operable
Sails are in fair condition
Negatives:
Starboard engine turns over but does not start
Port engine does not turn over
Saildrives are questionable
Propellers need rebuilt
Trampoline needs replaced
AC is very weak
Fridge Freezer are weak
Steering system needs repair
Navigation lights need repair
Radar does not operate
Working with Andrew Hodgdon at The MultiHull Company was a great experience. Andrew has years of experience in the multihull market, especially performence catamarans and was the Technical Director at Balance Catamarans for many years. He’s always available to talk, guide and advise. He’s easy to work with, is extremely knowledgeable, and has a very pleasant way about him. I would highly recommend Andrew to help in your sale or purchase of any multihull.
Working with Will, Andrew Holland and Andrew Hodgdon to sell my Balance 442 was such a pleasure. No one knows multihulls as well as Andrew Hodgdon, especially performance cats like a Balance. As Technical Director of Balance for many years, Andrew knows all of the nuances of that type of boat, as well as the other brands in the category. If you want to sell or buy a catamaran, look no further than Andrew Hodgdon!
Multihull Company did a great job with advertising and selling our boat. Also with the closing and documentation work. Highly recommend them and our broker, Dunbar Lewis.
