If you want a beautiful and extremely fast (carbon fiber hull and rig),
comfortable, easy-to-sail, offshore cruiser that is in excellent condition, THIS
IS IT …   This owner loves this boat but, his daughters are older now and they
aren’t doing extended family cruises any longer, so it’s time to sell.

Sovereign is a rare performance catamaran that is very fast and easy to
short-hand-sail with one crew, thanks to a thoughtful carbon fiber rig design
that features a main halyard on a Harken reversing captive spool, self-tacking
jib and all lines led to the raised helm. 

It has constantly been upgraded with all new Garmin electronics, new sails,
Tenderlift, new interior varnish and wall covering, and extensive solar power.

The layout provides comfortable accommodations in 6 cabins for 12 quest people. 
This is a mobile private island, configured with solar power sufficient to run
refrigeration, electronics, hot water, fans and even the water-maker…
minimizing the need for generator in normal daily life and meaning your cruising
range is enormous.

Capable and proven ocean sailing machine, with travels from Australia to the
Mediterranean, Caribbean, Bahamas, and Chesapeake Bay.  She can do it all,
engineered to be safely handled by shorthanded crew….

This Lidgard Executive 73 sailing catamaran was conceived to be the ultimate
long-range cruiser that offers comfort at anchor with safety and performance
underway. Designed by the esteemed multihull designer Lidgard and built by
Executive Yachts of Australia. This Lidgard performance catamaran was built with
super light construction,  a reinforced epoxy carbon fiber blend. The luxurious
Executive 73 offers space and comfort to owners and guests. This boat offers an
exhilarating sail reaching up to 22 knots in speed and a comfortable cruise at
10 knots. She is built to the highest standards and is hand finished with
excellent taste. This catamaran is also USCG documented with its home port being
Sullivans Island, SC. However, with its max draft being 4 feet 6 inches with
Dagger Boards draft being 8ft, it has performed incredibly well in the Bahamas.
This vessel was built to commercial standards where you will find safety
equipment not commonly found. She is equipped with engine drive crash pumps  in
each section of the vessel, cross ship fueling capacity, 2x 8-person life rafts,
extra-high stainless steel life lines, and more. SOVEREIGN was completely re-fit
in Greece 2017 and has never been charted by current owners. Sovereign was
further enhanced with significant upgrades to electronics package and key
systems in 2021 and 2022. Sovereign has just completed a major technical and
cosmetic refit interior and exterior. See below list of recent improvements,
including daily, electronics, major engine servicing, and electronics.
