Woods 40 Meander Catamarans For Sale

Designed to be sailed by one person, all mainsail reefing is done from the cockpit with separate reefing lines for the clew and tack. Her cutter rig sail configuration means she’s well balanced on all points of sail and in all conditions.

The cutter design, with the small mainsail well aft, a big genoa, and staysail, means that unlike catamarans with big unbalanced mains, the Meander 40 is able to perform exceptionally well down wind. Unlike many cats, the Meander’s deep dagger boards means she can point as well as a typical monohull and has proven to be equally, if not more, comfortable in upwind conditions. Downwind she outperforms them every time.

On ocean passages she will regularly do 150-175 mile days without stressing the boat or crew. Despite being a light boat, she does well in heavy weather. In +20 knots of breeze and large seas she provides a comfortable ride at 8 knots but will happily do more.
