1997 Manta 40

As with many of the Catamarans she has a large, comfortable main salon that is center of the vessel between the two hulls. The salon opens out to the cockpit and helm area which offers abundant seating, a piped hard top, windshield and can be fully enclosed from harsh weather.The Salon is the hub of the vessel with a large L-shaped dinette to starboard forward. Entering the vessel on the starboard side one will see the dinette which provides comfortable seating for 6 and there are 2 upholstered ottomans with storage under. She has a large adjustable table for dining or entertaining. Built-in wrap-around storage shelf on the back of the dinette/settee. To port of the settee are two large chest-style refrigerator and freezer (new compressor and plate in 2016). Creating an L-shape is the stand up navigation station with electric panel. Aft to port is the U-shaped Sea Galley. This Salon has expansive windows offering unparalleled views and abundant light. She has tinted salon windows with (2) sets of exterior sunscreens and interior covers (2018). Faux teak and holly sole give her warmth and her teal colored cushions feel like one is already in the islands.The port hull features the Owner's suite with private head and separate shower stall. The owner's master is aft with a queen size fore and aft facing berth. There is a custom shelf over the head of the berth, bedside storage and shelves, reading lights and fans, plus an overhead hatch and port-lights for excellent ventilation. The center of the hull offers a full-length custom teak bookcase, pantry and linen cabinets with storage. This area is the walk-way between the master stateroom and the master head which is forward. The master head has an electric marine toilet, holding tank (new sanitation hose in 2018), vanity with countertop sink and faucet, large mirrored medicine cabinet above sink and of course the large separate shower stall. Here too there is good ventilation and light from the overhead hatch.Next we move to the starboard hull where the guest staterooms and second head is located. The VIP guest stateroom is aft and has an athwartships queen size berth. There is also a settee with storage under, cedar-lined hanging closet, storage drawers and lockers, reading lights, fan, overhead hatch and port-light for added light and ventilation. Moving forward is the guest head that can be accessed from both guest staterooms. One actually must walk thru the head to the forward guest stateroom. This stateroom offers a double fore and aft berth, settee with water maker controls under, end storage cabinet, large custom tool closet and custom parts storage, Splendide combo washer/dryer, Universal aqua technologies 30 gal/hour water maker and the water heater. The quests are fortunate to have a large head as well with separate shower stall, electric marine toilet, holding tank (new sanitation hose 2018), vanity with sink and faucet, and large mirror with storage cabinet below.The exterior of this vessel offers a ton of space from the forward trampolines and corner Catbird seats, spacious foredeck and side decks to her massive cockpit and helm area. The aft end of her hulls are built-in steps for ease entering the vessel from a dinghy.
