Boat Details
Description
PRICE REDUCED!
The Switch 51 is a classic high-performance world voyager designed by VPLP. She was built with high-tech materials for discriminating sailors at Sud Composites in Sète, France. Sud built 18 of these fine performance catamarans from 2001-2007, at which time the yard was taken over by Swiss Cat, another fine builder of boutique performance cats.
The current owner purchased Holokai in early 2021 and undertook a complete refit of the boat. Everything on the boat is new. Over $500,000 has been invested in the boat in the last 3 years:
New engines and sail drives
New standing and running rigging
New sails
New Lithium battery system
New air-conditioning
New solar panels
New electronics and radar
New tender and outboard
New watermaker
New marelon sea cocks
And much much more!
This boat is in fantastic condition just having finished a season of cruising in the Caribbean. The boat is available to be viewed in Virginia Beach immediately.
