2013 Knysna 480 "Seaducer"

3 Cabins | 3 Heads | Owner's Version

Lightly Used With a 2024 Refit

S/V Seaducer is a rare and immaculate 2013 Knysna 480 catamaran designed by Angelo Lavranos that represents a truly unique ownership opportunity. Originally serving as the ex-factory show boat for the Knysna Yacht Company, she was barely used for her first 10 years.

In 2024, she underwent an extensive, top-tier refit before completing a successful transoceanic crossing from South Africa to Greece via Brazil and the Caribbean. She has exceptionally low engine hours (650 hours on twin Yanmar 3H5E engines) and generator hours (165 hours on a Fischer Panda 7kW generator). Her massive 2024 refit includes all-new Ullman sails, new standing rigging, new Garmin navigation electronics, a 2,920W solar array with Victron power management, Starlink Gen 3, and True Design composite thru-hulls. Configured in a luxurious 3-cabin, 3-head layout featuring a washing machine and a dishwasher, Seaducer is in "as-new" condition and ready to cruise immediately.

Seaducer is a distinctive, highly capable catamaran that stands out for her quality, pedigree, and thoughtful ownership. She offers a compelling combination of comfort, performance, and reliability for anyone looking for a serious cruising platform.
