PDQ 36 Capella - Owner’s Manual

GENERAL 1

General Description 1-1

Your 36 Capella cruising catamaran combines comfortable accommodation, good

performance and pleasing appearance. It is intended primarily for coastal cruising and

island hopping, and is capable of offshore passages.

This is a strong, safe boat, built by experienced boat builders with best-quality

materials, to the design of a professional engineer who is an experienced multihull

cruiser. There are six watertight compartments: 4 forward and 2 aft. The fin keels

have a sacrificial section to allow the boat to stand up to grounding at relative high

speed.

The layout of the boat gives two double berths forward. A large open-plan saloon

places the galley on the port side and navigation station on the starboard side. The

large head is located in the starboard aft cabin. The port aft cabin is normally custom

fit to individual requirements.

The “Classic” version is the original concept, providing lightweight, economical and

reliable auxiliary power with two Yamaha outboard motors, specially designed for this

purpose. The “LRC” or Long Range Cruiser version is equipped with Yanmar Diesel

Sail drive inboard engines, for the dedicated sailors who want the additional power and

security of twin Diesel engines and skeg protected rudders.

Your Warranty 1-2

The terms of your Warranty are included in your purchase contract,

which should be referred to for details.
