2012 NAUTITECH 542 Compare

Built by Nautitech in 2012, TOHORA is a 16.45-metre sailing catamaran (Nautitech 542, hull number 6) that offers a compelling combination of offshore performance, onboard comfort and reliability. She has been owned by a single private owner since new, maintained by a full-time captain and crew, and has logged over 14,000 offshore miles across multiple ocean passages — including a Europe-to-Australia voyage and several Caribbean and New England seasons. US import duty has been paid, making her immediately accessible to buyers in that market.

TOHORA is configured in the preferred three-cabin owner's layout. The port aft hull houses a spacious master stateroom with a queen berth and a forward office that could be converted into a fourth cabin. The starboard hull offers two single berths aft and a queen berth forward. A dedicated wet locker in the port bow provides organised storage for watersports and dive equipment. Onboard systems are extensive and well-considered: the Yanmar engines have been serviced on schedule using only authorised spare parts, and the original sail drives have been replaced with new SD60 units to reduce vibration and noise. The sail inventory has been selected to work optimally with the aluminium mast and V-shaped lightweight boom. Additional equipment includes an 840-watt solar array, a 9 kW Kohler generator, air conditioning, a watermaker, a washer and dryer, a dishwasher, two refrigerators, two freezers, an icemaker, a dive compressor and a 14-foot tender.

TOHORA is particularly well suited to buyers seeking a capable and genuinely proven bluewater cruising catamaran. Her track record across multiple ocean basins, her thorough equipment fit-out and her single-owner history make her a serious option for those planning extended offshore passages or simply looking for a well-maintained, ready-to-sail catamaran with no shortcuts taken in maintenance or equipment. She represents strong value in the 50-foot-plus catamaran segment.
