About Bareboat Catamaran Catana 41 OC
The Catana 41 OC offers the performance and stability that distinguish French multihull design. Built for the cruising sailor, this catamaran delivers superior handling across variable conditions without sacrificing comfort, making it well suited to both experienced and ambitious charter crews.
Based on Raiatea, one hour from Papeete, this bareboat provides four double cabins for eight guests, with comprehensive provisioning for weeks at sea. Included are snorkelling equipment, dinghy with outboard, safety briefing, and all linens and towels. The bimini top offers essential shade in the tropical sun.
A valid coastal skipper certificate or equivalent experience in similar-sized yachts is required to charter. Long-duration bookings qualify for incremental discounts, with 15 per cent off charters of 28 days or more. Charters commence at 12h30pm on day one and conclude at 9am on the final day.

The Charter Experience
The waters between Tahiti and Bora Bora reward deliberate exploration. Trade winds favour steady progress between islands; anchorages in Raiatea's sheltered lagoons allow unhurried days of swimming, snorkelling, and local discovery. This is sailing without the pressure of set itineraries, suited to crews comfortable with self-reliance and the rhythms of the South Pacific.
Suggested Itinerary
A typical fortnight might depart Raiatea to explore the outer islands of the Society group, with time spent anchored in the crystalline lagoons of Bora Bora, Taha'a, and Huahine. Routes and pacing remain entirely in your hands, allowing for extended anchorages, village visits, and unhurried passages under sail.
