Knysna 440

SV Quazami is a recently surveyed 2004 Knysna 440 Catamaran in sail away condition, equipped for the cruising lifestyle and ready for blue water crossing.  She was extensively upgraded in 2021 and then sailed from South Africa to Brazil and then onto the Caribbean in 2022 by the current owner and his family of 5, who comfortably live aboard.

With 1190w of solar, Quazami is energy self-sufficient and can be taken to remote locations, without the need to ever go into marinas. She can comfortably sleep up to 7 people. Quazami has only ever had two owners and has never been in charter.  Recent survey available on request.

Designed by renowned naval architect Angelo Lavranos, one of the pioneers of the light construction technique for racing yachts, the Knysna 440 is an improved version of the legendary St Francis 44. She has been built to a high standard by the Knysna Yachting Company, who prides itself on its reputation within the industry for producing high quality, fast yachts that are able to safely and comfortably cross oceans. Deliberately keeping production numbers low enables Knysna to pay attention to detail without ever compromising on safety. 

This blue water catamaran is well suited to a sailor interested in long travels.  Her light weight and large complement of sails enable her to move with speed through the water in a variety of wind conditions, and her 1 metre draft enables her to go in shallow water.  Climb aboard and her energy self-sufficiency, and onboard water maker, will enable you to visit the most remote locations.
