This 2002 example, named KAIKALA, combines the performance of a capable offshore multihull with the equipment and amenities suited to extended cruising and comfortable liveaboard life.
KAIKALA features a spacious three-cabin owner’s version layout, with a separate forward crew cabin in the starboard hull. The interior accommodates six guests plus two crew, with three guest heads and showers and an additional crew head and shower. Mahogany veneers, Alcantara liners, and teak-and-holly flooring give the interior a warm, refined finish. The salon features generous seating, a forward-facing navigation station, and ample storage throughout.
Powered by twin 125 HP Yanmar 4JH3-DTE diesel engines with straight-shaft drives, KAIKALA cruises at approximately 8.5 knots under power. Her sailing inventory and lightweight carbon rig are particularly noteworthy, featuring a Lorima carbon mast without spreaders, a 10-meter carbon longeron bowsprit, and an extensive selection of North Sails, including a 3Di mainsail and multiple 3Di headsails and downwind sails. Hydraulic and manual Harken winches provide capable sail handling for a wide range of conditions.
KAIKALA is equipped for extended time aboard, with substantial solar capacity, lithium house batteries, a generator, a watermaker, and generous refrigeration and freezer capacity. Her onboard amenities are complemented by a spacious cockpit with seating for eight, a hardtop, cockpit cushions, a propane BBQ, and teak bow pulpit seats.
A well-equipped Catana 582 combining an impressive carbon sailing rig, extensive sail inventory, and comfortable accommodations, KAIKALA offers a compelling platform for serious cruising and life aboard.
I have participated in the sale of several Catana 58s in the last 10 years and personally viewed four in the last year. KAIKALA is the cleanest, best-maintained Catana 582 I have had the pleasure of visiting in this time. It has the highest-spec rig (Lorima mast) and standing rigging (all textile, NAVTEC, and Dyneema) available on a Catana. The interior is gorgeous, with immaculate mahogany veneers throughout. The engines and engine rooms are impeccable. The attached photos are all mine taken in November 2026. Video courtesy of the owner.
