Overview
About this vessel
Large-Volume Australian Built Blue Water Cruising Catamaran (Australian Registered)
This Australian-built IMP55 sailing catamaran, constructed in 2001 and launched in 2006, is a substantial and highly liveable blue water cruiser offering impressive space, practical systems, and a comfortable layout ideal for extended cruising, liveaboard life, or relaxed coastal adventures. Australian registered and well set up, she presents as a capable and enjoyable cruising catamaran ready to be enjoyed on the water.
The spacious cockpit is designed for easy living and entertaining, protected by a solid hardtop with full covers for comfort in all conditions. Sail handling is simple and efficient, allowing straightforward short-handed sailing without leaving the cockpit.
Inside, the layout is open and functional, with excellent accommodation. There are four cabins — two doubles and two twin-single cabins — complemented by three bathrooms, each with its own toilet and shower, providing excellent privacy and convenience when cruising with family or guests.
The starboard galley is well equipped and thoughtfully arranged, with generous bench space and storage. Two dinette areas, one inside and one in the cockpit, provide flexible dining and relaxation options regardless of weather or location.
She is powered by twin Perkins naturally aspirated diesel engines with shaft drives — a simple and reliable setup. Each engine has its own start battery. Comfort systems make longer stays away from marinas easy.
On deck, there are features for relaxed time at anchor. For shore access, she comes with an OC Cruising Tender (3.6m) powered by a 25hp Honda electric-start outboard.
Overall, this IMP55 is a large-volume, Australian-built blue water cruising catamaran with the space, practicality, and onboard systems to cruise confidently and enjoy life on the water.
