AQUA TERRA: The ultimate exploration catamaran

This ready-to-sail aluminum catamaran is an exceptional opportunity for blue-water cruising enthusiasts. Crafted with meticulous care by Garcia Yachts - renowned for the outstanding quality of their aluminum hulls and accommodations - it strikes the perfect balance between performance and comfort.

Built to meet its owner's exacting standards, AQUA TERRA embodies uncompromising quality. An experienced nautical professional was commissioned to refine project specifications and provide detailed oversight at every stage of the build. Every detail has been carefully considered to meet the demands of the most ambitious expeditions.

Since its launch in spring 2023, the boat has been entrusted to full-time professional crews, ensuring its pristine condition. The shakedown cruise took place in April 2023. Over the past 18 months, a series of voyages between the Mediterranean and the Caribbean - including three Atlantic crossings - has allowed the owner, along with the builder and subcontractors, to fine-tune every aspect of the vessel. Today, AQUA TERRA is in impeccable condition.

The owners are passionate about sports and frequently plan cruising activities such as kite surfing, kayaking, diving, and hiking in remote locations.

AQUA TERRA's sturdy commercial-grade construction and equipment allows the crew to consistently meet the owner's rigorous cruising schedule, ensuring timely arrivals.

New owners' commitments will prevent them from dedicating enough time to the use of AQUA TERRRA. They have therefore decided to sell the boat.

The boat has just been launched after new bottom paint and maintenance in Grenada.

Garcia Yard Presentation

This Garcia Explocat 52 features an impressive array of equipment and amenities. Whether you dream of family cruises in the Caribbean or high-performance, comfortable circumnavigation at any latitude, AQUA TERRA is fully prepared to deliver.

To reconcile what might seem contradictory, to bring together what seemed incompatible, it took all the experience of Garcia Yachts, the know-how of its teams, the intelligence of our partners, architect and designer, to propose a new way to explore the world: the Explocat 52.

Twin aluminum hulls with shallow draft, built to withstand all the hazards of the most magical long-distance voyages, with bows that can brave all storms, in complete serenity, the Explocat 52 is perfectly in line with the historical Garcia lineage.

Manageable by a crew of two, who are always well protected thanks to the intelligence of its unique design, its generous sail area and controlled weight make the miles scroll by like never before, in first-class comfort.

A subtle blend of proven solutions and innovations that offer you a truly unique sailing experience. This is so true that the British sailor Pete Goss describes this unit as the ideal machine for anyone looking to "stretch navigational boundaries". Design innovations include a forward cockpit accessible through a door at the front of salon, pivoting helm allowing "outside/inside" positions as a function of weather...
