BELLE CARO

The BELLE CARO Catana 53 is one of the most celebrated models from the prestigious French shipyard, offering a perfect balance between exhilarating sailing performance and luxurious comfort. Launched in 2019, this particular Catana 53 is presented in immaculate condition, having been lightly used by her first owner until 2022 before being extensively upgraded and meticulously maintained for ocean passages, including a transatlantic preparation by her current owner and professional team. Today, she stands in turnkey condition, fully equipped and ready to sail.

With a design inspired by the shipyard’s flagship Catana 62 and 70 models, the Catana 53 offers the same pedigree of offshore capability in a size manageable by a couple. Built using advanced infusion techniques, her hull is a foam sandwich composite reinforced with Vinylester resin, Twaron® aramid fibre for impact resistance, and carbon reinforcements in key stress areas. The result is a yacht that combines strength, stiffness, and lightweight construction for superior safety and performance.

Her light grey hull, white superstructure, and Flexiteek decks create a timeless, elegant profile. Structural bulkheads are infused carbon/foam sandwich, integrated and reinforced for maximum rigidity. Carbon is also used extensively in her rig and fittings: Axxon high-modulus carbon mast and boom, carbon bowsprit, longeron, front beam, martingale, and daggerboards, ensuring strength without compromise on weight.

This Catana 53 is configured in the desirable Owner’s Version, offering generous living spaces for family cruising or extended voyages across 3 cabins.
