This Lidgard Executive 73 sailing catamaran was conceived to be the ultimate long-range cruiser that offers comfort at anchor with safety and performance underway. Designed by the esteemed multihull designer Lidgard and built by Executive Yachts of Australia. This Lidgard performance catamaran was built with super light construction, a reinforced epoxy carbon fiber blend. The luxurious Executive 73 offers space and comfort to owners and guests. This boat offers an exhilarating sail reaching up to 22 knots in speed and a comfortable cruise at 10 knots. She is built to the highest standards and is hand finished with excellent taste. This catamaran is also USCG documented with its home port being Sullivans Island, SC. However, with its max draft being 4 feet 6 inches with Dagger Boards draft being 9ft, it has performed incredibly well in the Bahamas. This vessel was built to commercial standards where you will find safety equipment not commonly found. She is equipped with engine drive crash pumps in each section of the vessel, cross ship fueling capacity, 2x 8-person life rafts, extra-high stainless steel life lines, and more. SOVEREIGN was completely re-fit in Greece 2017 and has never been charted by current owners. Sovereign was further enhanced with significant upgrades to electronics package and key systems in 2021 and 2022.
