AQUAVISTA is a well-presented Simpson Cloud 12 offering a proven and practical platform for coastal cruising, extended liveaboard use or exploring the Queensland coast.
Designed by respected Australian multihull designer Roger Simpson and launched in 2001, she measures 11.9m with a generous 6.4m beam, shallow 0.9m draft and twin daggerboards. The three-cabin layout provides double berths forward in each hull plus a further double aft in the port hull. The starboard hull incorporates the galley and bathroom, while the spacious central saloon and protected cockpit provide comfortable living areas both at anchor and underway.
AQUAVISTA is well equipped for extended cruising, including:
Twin Yamaha 9.9hp four-stroke outboards, approximately 2019
Fully battened mainsail, furling genoa and screecher
Standing rigging replaced in 2019
B&G Zeus 9" chartplotter
Raymarine autopilot and wind instruments
Sea Recovery Aqua Whisper watermaker.
320L freshwater and 250L fuel capacity
Victron Multiplus 2000W inverter/charger
200L refrigeration plus 90L freezer
Custom GRP cockpit bimini
30kg Sarca Excel anchor with Maxwell 2200W electric windlass
3.2m Quicksilver inflatable tender with stainless davits and electric winch.
Importantly, AQUAVISTA underwent a professional condition and insurance survey in April 2025. The surveyor described her as "well cared for" and presenting in "above average condition commensurate with her age. " Accessible hull areas showed no delamination or distortion, with no evidence of osmosis or hull deflection identified during the inspection.
For someone looking for an affordable, capable Australian-designed cruising catamaran with shallow draft and much of the equipment already aboard for extended cruising, AQUAVISTA deserves a closer look.
