Kallima is the first of the Catana’s 47 30th Anniversary range built to celebrate the 30th anniversary of the creation of the Catana shipyard. Based on the latest generation Catana 47 Carbon Infusion, the interior design has been redesigned for comfort and long term traveling, thanks to the involvement of her current owners. Kallima remains a sailboat of exception and one of the few long-distance sailing catamarans combining elegance, performance, and seaworthiness. She proved it by cruising with her owners in the Pacific from North to South for 5 years and sailed 33,000 miles. She is in excellent condition and has been very regularly maintained with a systematic and preventive maintenance, which history is provided. She is currently out of the water in Polynesia. She has been “wintered” very meticulously. The boat is fully equipped for a circumnavigation and ready to sail in the Polynesian waters. All the equipment that needed a check-up has been revised; only the personal belongings of her future buyer are missing.

The theoretical maximum speed that a displacement hull can move efficiently through the water is determined by it's waterline length and displacement. It may be unable to reach this speed if the boat is underpowered or heavily loaded, though it may exceed this speed given enough power. Read more.
Classic hull speed formula:
Hull Speed = 1.34 x √LWL
A more accurate formula devised by Dave Gerr in The Propeller Handbook replaces the Speed/Length ratio constant of 1.34 with a calculation based on the Displacement/Length ratio.
Max Speed/Length ratio = 8.26 ÷ Displacement/Length ratio.311
Hull Speed = Max Speed/Length ratio x √LWL
A measure of the power of the sails relative to the weight of the boat. The higher the number, the higher the performance, but the harder the boat will be to handle. This ratio is a "non-dimensional" value that facilitates comparisons between boats of different types and sizes. Read more.
SA/D = SA ÷ (D ÷ 64)2/3
A measure of the stability of a boat's hull that suggests how well a monohull will stand up to its sails. The ballast displacement ratio indicates how much of the weight of a boat is placed for maximum stability against capsizing and is an indicator of stiffness and resistance to capsize.
Ballast / Displacement * 100
A measure of the weight of the boat relative to it's length at the waterline. The higher a boat’s D/L ratio, the more easily it will carry a load and the more comfortable its motion will be. The lower a boat's ratio is, the less power it takes to drive the boat to its nominal hull speed or beyond. Read more.
D/L = (D ÷ 2240) ÷ (0.01 x LWL)³
This ratio assess how quickly and abruptly a boat’s hull reacts to waves in a significant seaway, these being the elements of a boat’s motion most likely to cause seasickness. Read more.
Comfort ratio = D ÷ (.65 x (.7 LWL + .3 LOA) x Beam1.33)
This formula attempts to indicate whether a given boat might be too wide and light to readily right itself after being overturned in extreme conditions. Read more.
CSV = Beam ÷ ³√(D / 64)
