Introduction: |
The
Manta 40 represents a nice blend of performance,
aesthetics, accommodations and value in a cruising
catamaran. The hull is solid fiberglass below the
waterline. Both hull and deck are constructed in one
piece and bonded together.
PANGAEA includes twin 30 hp diesels with S-drives
and folding propellers, and electric winch. The
accommodation plan has been developed from customer
feedback, offering convenient and spacious galley
up, one complete hull dedicated to the owner's
stateroom and head, large separate shower stalls,
large refrigerator and freezer compartments and
queen-size berths.
