356 engine hours | Maximum owner-oriented specification
This catamaran stands significantly apart from most Astrea 42 models currently available on the market. Unlike standard charter configurations, she has been thoughtfully upgraded as a true owner’s yacht, with a strong focus on autonomy, technology, comfort, and long-range cruising. This is a rare opportunity to acquire a 2024 Astrea 42, already upgraded to a level that would be significantly more expensive to replicate today — without the long wait for a new build and without the substantial cost of post-purchase upgrades.
Maximum Energy Independence. One of the key highlights is the professional-grade electrical system, designed to provide exceptional onboard autonomy and comfort without constant marina dependence:
2 × Victron Quattro 3000VA inverters (6000W total) operating in parallel
High-capacity LiFePO4 battery bank — 32 kWh / 2400A
1660W SUNPOWER MAX3 solar array
Automatic 4000W diesel generator
Full system monitoring via Victron Cerbo GX MK2 and VRM
This setup provides true independence for long-distance cruising and life onboard, allowing full use of household appliances, refrigeration, induction cooking, Starlink, air conditioning, and onboard comfort systems.
Comfort Designed for Living Onboard
The yacht has been exceptionally well equipped for comfortable long-term use:
Air conditioning system: 2 × 12,000 BTU units
Upgraded 80L hot water boiler
Dishwasher
Washer/dryer
Premium Sunbrella cockpit enclosure, helm station enclosure, exterior cushions, and saloon blinds
Upgraded slatted bed bases in cabins for enhanced comfort
Smart Technology & Full Control
The catamaran features an intelligent onboard management system:
Full monitoring via mobile phone or onboard display
Monitoring of batteries, temperatures, tanks, refrigerator, and freezer
Starlink with backup internet system
Premium & High-Value Options
The yacht is equipped with several highly desirable and expensive upgrades that significantly enhance comfort and value:
In-boom furling mainsail system — one of the most sought-after premium options for effortless sail handling
Electric winches
Electric davit winch
Oceanic version
2 × Volvo D2-50 engines
Underwater lighting
For a buyer seeking a nearly new, fully equipped owner-version catamaran, this represents a truly rare opportunity: a yacht already prepared for immediate cruising, long passages, and comfortable life onboard — without the need to invest substantial additional funds after purchase. # 1.
