Description

Just Arrived in Fort Lauderdale!

Beautiful 2016 Knysna 500SE Owners Version Layout, Ready to Sail Away!

Second Chance is a rare opportunity to own this highly upgraded, turn-key blue-water live-aboard, three-cabin, three-head cruising catamaran. Built to premier standards and proven as an ocean-crossing sailing vessel, she is fully outfitted and ready to cruise. It sails like a dream and is easily handled with sheets and halyards running to the helm.

This vessel is in amazing condition and has been impeccably maintained from its systems to the stainless. The layout of the boat is excellent for a cruising couple and their guests. The systems have been upgraded to allow independent, off-the-grid, comfortable living. The 2.5kW solar, generator, and alternator charging systems feed into ample lithium batteries, making for simple and efficient energy management. The watermaker and sizable storage tanks ensure access to clean water when offshore or at anchor.

The queen-sized berths, sizable cabins, and attached heads with large separate shower areas provide comfortable accommodations for both owner and guests. Enjoy the attention to detail on the interior, with real maple wood custom cabinetry and trim that are warm, bright, and homey. Huge windows and hatches create excellent airflow and natural light throughout the boat. From romantic dining for two to hosting a dozen people, the boat offers plenty of space inside and out.

This turn-key ocean-going sailing catamaran will get you on the water immediately to start your sailing adventure, in comfort and style.
