The final hull of the iconic Gunboat 66 series, SLIM is a high-performance cruising catamaran designed by Morreli & Melvin and built in South Africa. SLIM was launched in 2012 and has been impeccably maintained throughout the years with major refits in 2015 and 2019. She is custom fitted to her owner’s requirements for world-cruising and exploring those places that only a yacht has access to. Her composite fiber construction complimented by a fast displacement racing hull design, SLIM handles any conditions and delivers superior sailing performance. SLIM comfortably accommodates up to 6 guests in 3 cabins, each equipped with walk-in shower, AC, sound system and flat screen TV. Elegant lines, comfort and an extravagant design combine superior performance with luxury and style.

MORE DETAILS: Port hull is as follows: Aft cabin with double bed. Midships cabin with double bed. Forward cabin with over/under bunkbeds. All port side cabins share a midships head/shower and a separate shower just forward of the aft cabin.
The owner set the port side up with just his kids in mind…he was only begun chartering a few years after owning Slim hence she’s more suited to a family than 3 couples, or 2couples as that way one couple gets the privacy of the entire port side and the other couple gets the Owner’s cabin which is full privacy.
Port ideal for kids OR
yacht is good for two couples; one couple gets port hull; other couple gets master in starboard.
