2004 Broadblue 46 Catamaran – Major Project Opportunity in Prime Boatyard
Overview For the experienced marine craftsman, builder, or determined DIY cruiser, “Dazl Cat” presents a rare and substantial project opportunity. This 2004 Broadblue 46-foot cruising catamaran is a proven blue-water hull design with excellent bones, offering an ambitious buyer the blank canvas needed to bring a premier bluewater cruiser back to life. Currently resting on the hard in a boatyard—with work-yard space available to facilitate the refit process—she is ready for a skilled hand to guide her through a comprehensive restoration and return her to her rightful place on the water.
The Positives & Major Upgrades
New Mast Included: Comes equipped with a brand-new mast, saving the next owner a major sourcing and fabrication hurdle (standing/running rigging and sails required).
New Generator: Features a newly installed auxiliary generator, providing a fantastic head start on the electrical infrastructure.
Spacious Layout & Fine Bones: Broadblue catamarans are renowned for their solid fiberglass construction, seaworthy performance, and comfortable interior volumes. Despite her time out of the water, her interior layout retains a warm, classic aesthetic with great potential.
Yard Access: Located in a fully equipped boatyard that permits hands-on owner-managed work or contractor labor, allowing you to complete the refit right on-site before relaunching.
The Refit Scope “Dazl Cat” has been dry-docked for 16 years and will require a thorough, skilled-level refit across multiple systems. Prospective buyers should anticipate:
Rigging & Sail Inventory: The new mast requires a complete new standing and running rigging package, plus a full suite of sails.
Deck & Interior Remediation: Evidence of rain water intrusion from leaky windows has resulted in localized dry rot and cosmetic/structural wood damage that will need addressing.
Mechanical & Electrical: Shipboard systems have been non-operational for an extended period. All onboard electronics, navigation suites, and DC/AC electrical distribution networks will need updating, rewiring, or replacement.
General Systems Service: Routine servicing, through-hull inspections, and cosmetic detailing throughout.
Broker’s Note Boats of this caliber with this much inherent volume and structural potential rarely come at an entry-level price point ($80,000 USD). If you have the carpentry, mechanical, and rigging skills—or the vision to manage a rewarding marine restoration project—this Broadblue 46 represents an exceptional value proposition.
