About
Over the years, we've loved Maine Cat 41's for their open bridgedeck with hard top and full enclosure for great ventilation, excellent visibility and the ability to close it all up for weather.
Owner has authorized a $12,000 price reduction, and McElbeau is now available for only $329,000! Call now and you can be sailing in the tropics this winter.
McElbeau was built by Maine Cat and Dick Vermeulen. She's been actively sailed from New England to Florida and to the Bahamas. She's well maintained with many recent upgrades.
MC 41's exhibit a good turn of speed and generally outsail the basic charter cats we've become accustomed to.
She's got twin diesel Yanmar engines, Autopilot, Color GPS chartplotter, radar, AIS and VHF radios (2) with RAM Mic. She has a bowsprit to run her Screecher Sail and the Spinnaker. She has BRAND NEW Fully battened Mainsail (9/22) and Stackpack (9/22) with Lazy Jacks. Flexofold Props, Great ground tackle, excellent power system including large solar panel array and large Firefly battery bank, electric windlass and she's even got an electric winch, for easy and short handed sailing.
She points high when going to windward with her twin daggerboards down and flies on a broad reach with boards up.
Her interior accommodations are excellent with the starboard hull as owner's suite with massive owners berth, and port hull has a well equipped galley with an equally large VIP berth. She has two marine heads with owners side walk in shower compartment plus crew berth.
If you are looking for a well equipped, well cared for and easy to sail shallow draft vessel with a good turn of speed that will be perfect for warm weather sailing and can handle the cooler northern waters once the salon is buttoned up with her almost new Strataglass enclosure, you owe it to yourself to check out our 2005 Maine Cat 41.
She's in Deltaville Virginia and can be seen by appointment. Don't let this one get away. Call now!

I can’t say the process was stress free, but there was ample communication throughout the process. We made it happen. The broker was super and even helped us after the sale was completed to ensure that we got underway safely.
I wanted to acknowledge how wonderful it was to work with Josie Tucci. Having her represent us as a buyer’s broker was such a breath of fresh air. She was extremely ethical every step of the way and her knowledge was expansive. She didn’t just want to get the sale/commission, she wanted to make sure we knew exactly what we were taking on and supported us in getting full transparency from the seller. I cannot recommend her enough!
Cal Landau went above and beyond taking care of issues that came up during the listing. I can’t say enough.
