MIROVIA

Shallow draft, wide decks This 84 foot JFA catamaran draws just 1.52m, so she can tuck into shallow coves and sheltered bays that deeper boats have to admire from a distance. Catamaran geometry also means the eight guests aboard get real deck space rather than a negotiated share of it.

A properly stocked toy locker Waterskis in adult and junior sizes, a wakeboard, a kneeboard and a towable tube for anyone who wants to be dragged around behind the tender. Two kayaks, one single and one double. Snorkelling gear, beach games and fishing equipment round it out, which is enough variety to keep a mixed age group off their phones for most of the day.

Steadier evenings onboard At-anchor stabilizers cut the roll when you are staying put overnight, which matters more than most people expect at dinner. Air conditioning runs throughout the interior, the saloon is bright and open with a bar and entertainment system, and the alfresco dining area sits aft with two tables and proper seating.

Built 2004, refitted since Built by JFA in France in 2004 and refitted since, including a new galley, interior panelling and soft furnishings alongside an engine room overhaul and fresh paint on hull and superstructure. A 3,000 nautical mile range makes her a genuine long distance boat, not a marina ornament. Best suited to one family or a couple of families who plan to spend their week in the water and at anchor rather than on the dock.
