Crowther 36 Sailing Catamaran

Designed by renowned multihull designer Lock Crowther as a compact, affordable and capable fast passage-maker, Imagine 2 is the ideal entry-level cruising catamaran for sailors looking for simplicity, efficiency and adventure.

Set up for easy short-handed or single-handed sailing, her light loads and uncomplicated systems make sail handling effortless--you can manage the mainsail without even needing a winch.

Imagine 2 underwent a major refit in 2023/24, including:
* New standing rigging (2023)
* Saloon coachhouse reconfigured to provide approximately 2.0m headroom
* Entire vessel professionally two-pack painted (2024)
* New horizontal anchor winch installed
* Antifouling and engine servicing completed (2026)
* New fridge/freezer compressor (2026)

With a shallow 1.0m draft, she opens up a huge range of anchorages inaccessible to deeper-draft vessels, making her perfectly suited to exploring the East Coast and beyond.

Her off-grid capabilities are impressive, featuring 900 watts of solar, over 600Ah of battery capacity and a 2000W inverter--providing ample power for a coffee machine, blender, refrigeration and all your modern cruising essentials.

Accommodation consists of two comfortable forward double cabins, each fitted with large opening Lewmar hatches and fans for excellent ventilation. A practical bathroom and shower is located aft in the starboard hull, while the galley occupies the aft port hull, creating a practical and comfortable liveaboard layout.

Twin 9.9hp outboards propel this lightweight 5-tonne catamaran easily at hull speed under power, while her true performance comes alive under sail.

Whether you're looking for your first cruising catamaran, a capable coastal explorer, or an affordable platform for extended adventures, Imagine 2 is ready to turn your cruising dreams into reality.
