Catana 42 NEO (2007/2019/2026) "The Little Prince 2"
"The Little Prince 2" Catana 42 NEO hull No. 2" version 3 cabins / owner
First launched in 2007, the boat underwent a major refit by CATANA following the NEO program in 2019 and a long list of updates in January 2026.
Its second owner, an experienced sailor, made his choices and brought this boat to a high level of preparation, both in terms of sail choices and electronics, safety equipment, and comfort fittings. It is an exceptional unit equipped with Harken fittings, Black Magic blocks, etc. Its third owner has maintained this level and has just completed over 29,000 euros of work (see listing below).
This is an exceptional opportunity!!!
