Cruising Catamaran
Broadblue 385
The NEW 385 Series 4 (S4) is the natural development of the hugely popular S3 model. We have added new features and upgrades. These include:
- Our unique forward facing sail station with angled winches to improve ease of handling, especially when sailing shorthanded.
- Self-tacking headsail for ease of handling and improved upwind performance.
- Removal of backstays to allow square top mainsail for more sail area and better sailing performance.
- Electric headsail furlers added to options list.
Perfect for long distance cruising and combines ease of handling with robust construction, modern hull form, quality craftsmanship and elegant joinery. She is designed for single or short-hand sailing and achieves this by combining a smaller mainsail and larger headsails with all lines led aft to the cockpit. All sail handling can be done without needing to venture away from the cockpit.
The Broadblue 385 S4 is built to the highest level of European Recreational Craft Directive: Category A (Ocean) and is built using the highest standard materials. She is virtually unsinkable due to her watertight bulkheads and buoyancy compartments fore and aft. The keels are integrally moulded and sealed off from the hulls forming a double bottom.
Our 385 S3 customers have circumnavigated the World, enjoyed cruising around the Caribbean, Mediterranean and British Virgin Islands to name but a few, and always lived the dream! It will be no different for the owners of the new S4.
