I was back in Leros Marina carrying out a Pre-Purchase Yacht Survey on this Catamaran yesterday. This 1980's highly regarded Prout Snowgoose 37 has earned a well-deserved
reputation as an exceptional blue water passage maker. With nearly 100 reported
circumnavigations completed, you would be hard pressed to find another line
with this track record.

The low draft greatly increases the skipper’s anchoring options when storms approach, and makes her ideal for exploring the shallow waters found in coves around the Greek Islands. |
|
The Prout family began building cats in the 1950s, and their
boats have been well known and respected in the United Kingdom and Europe for
half a century.

The interior is well executed with abundant storage and counter space. The liberal use of teak creates a warm and elegant atmosphere not seen on many modern day cats. |
Surveyors comments: The Snowgoose 37 is a solid, capable world cruiser with a
proven track record. It may not be as flashy as newer-designed cruising cats,
but when the ocean is in an unpleasant mood the last thing on your mind is
flashiness!
