Piana 40
Introducing Cejlu, a beautiful and safe 2006 40ft Piana Sailing Catamaran registered in New Zealand (tax not paid)
We've completed our ambition of a year's sailing mission around the Pacific Islands; now it's time to pass her on to a lucky new owner. Currently located in the stunning cruising grounds of Tonga, but can be relocated to Fiji on request.
Cejlu is our "ray of sunshine" and has demonstrated her offshore sea-going capabilities, as she's sailed all the way from France.
With thoughtfully designed cabins and storage, as well as a cozy and practical cockpit, Cejlu is outfitted with safety, comfort, and independence in mind.
We would be delighted to offer any interested parties a boat tour and, of course, a sail while we are residing on Cejlu in May and June. The boat will be ready for takeover in July 2025, right in time for the cruising season!
