Overview

ROCKING B is the cleanest, most thoughtfully upgraded, meticulously maintained, and outstandingly equipped bluewater cruising catamaran you will find in this size and price range today.

When the Voyage 440 catamaran was introduced in 2001, it was the first multihull ever to be awarded Cruising World's overall boat of the year award.  The judges fairly gushed over the unmatched blend of performance, quality of construction, and attention to details necessary to qualify her as a true bluewater cruising cat. Though Voyage Yachts was anticipating this coup would boost the sales of their 4 cabin versions for their namesake charter fleet, instead they found the factory book full of orders for owner's versions.   The 2001-2003 era Voyage 440 Owner' s versions set a standard that few other production catamarans have subsequently achieved.  They are so well regarded that most have known only one or two owners since new.  

ROCKING B is a two owner catamaran whose current owner's have not only meticulously maintained her to a standard that belies her age, but have made many upgrades and improvements that make her stand tall above her sister 440's.  

A select few examples would be:

• A self sufficient power plant centered around 1280W of Sunpower solar panels coupled with dual 3000w Victron inverter chargers.
• OEM refrigeration replaced with super efficient Frigoboat air/keel cooled fridge and freezer system
• All stainless ground tackle consisting  of 2- Ultra SS anchors, all stainless chain, and Autoanchor wireless windlass remote and chain counter
• Custom bowsprit with Screecher and Harken furler
• 12' apex dinghy with console seat and helm and 20hp 4 stroke Honda, sits on custom chock extensions that allow for full aft walkway access while dinghy is stowed.
• Port aft stateroom converted to tool room with full complement of quality tools and spares
• Raritan freshwater electric flush heads
• Sleep number style mattress in owner's berth
• Fischer Panda genset, Air conditioning, Water Maker, Washer Dryer, the list goes on and on....

Please review the full specification and photos for a complete understanding of Rocking B's outstanding condition and equipment.
