Description
2008 Broadblue 385 Catamaran | Tru Blu
Tru Blu is a 2008 Broadblue 385 aft-mast version, a well-regarded offshore cruising catamaran that blends comfort, performance, and reliability in a very manageable size. With her distinctive Prout heritage, this attractive catamaran is as capable as she is spacious, offering an ideal platform for both seasoned sailors and those new to the cruising lifestyle.
The interior is bright and airy, thanks to panoramic saloon windows that bathe the space in natural light. The well-appointed saloon features a fully equipped galley with all the essentials for extended cruising. Accommodation is generous, comprising three main cabins including a dedicated owner’s hull with a private ensuite, perfect for liveaboard comfort or extended voyages with family and friends.
Renowned for her robust construction and stable sailing characteristics, the Broadblue 385 delivers confidence whether you're day sailing or embarking on offshore adventures. Her smart deck layout is optimised for single-handed sailing, with all lines and controls easily accessible from the helm.
Tru Blu has been well maintained and recently upgraded by her current owners, including recent additions such as a new mainsail, genoa, lithium batteries, and solar setup to ensure she’s offshore-ready.
This is an exceptional opportunity to secure a well-priced, ocean-capable catamaran that’s equally suited to cruising or liveaboard life.
