RONIN
40 ft' Admiral Celtic 40 2016

$ 324,900

The Celtic 40, previously known as the Admiral 40, is a robust Bluewater catamaran engineered to endure challenging open ocean conditions. Beyond its offshore capabilities, Celtic Yachts are designed to be easily managed by a small crew while providing excellent sailing performance and a comfortable living environment. Notable enhancements to the Celtic 40 include a redesigned helm station that facilitates ease of short-handed sailing, a new davit platform, a molded bimini ceiling, redesigned heads, more generously sized forward and aft cabins, increased locker space, extended salon seating, and a wider sliding door opening.

Constructed in South Africa, RONIN was sailed directly from the manufacturing facility to the United States by Tim Duncan, the owner and designer of Celtic Yachts. Her second owners acquired her new at a boat show and subsequently enjoyed several years of cruising on the Chesapeake Bay. Upon acquisition by her current owner, RONIN was equipped for Bluewater sailing, and she subsequently spent two years cruising the Caribbean. If you are considering Leopard catamarans, we encourage you to also consider RONIN. She offers comparable build quality and presents an exceptional value.

SALON

Upon entry, the galley is located to port, complemented by a dinette to starboard. The inclusion of substantial side and front windows ensures an abundance of natural light and provides a comprehensive view of the surroundings. Additionally, carefully positioned opening hatches and ports allow for effective ventilation and airflow throughout the vessel.

A prominent feature of the Celtic 40 is the extensive and easily accessible storage capacity, which represents a considerable benefit, especially for individuals contemplating longer durations onboard. The redesigned and enlarged sliding door to the cockpit smoothly integrates the interior and exterior areas, maintaining proximity to guests and allowing for continuous appreciation of the anchorage views from within.

The salon has a large U-shaped dinette with beige marine leather upholstery, which offers the advantage of easier maintenance compared to fabric and provides a cool environment when the air conditioning is in use. The front opening cabinets are designed with wooden door fronts in a basket weave pattern, facilitating air circulation and preventing mildew. 

Additional features include:

  • Samsung 32" TV
  • Impressive 6'8" headroom
  • LED lighting
  • Marine Air 16,000 BTU AC with Soft Start ducted to the salon and main cabin (2017)
  • Mesh sun screens for the large side windows
  • New gaskets for the front two port lights (2022)


GALLEY

The well-appointed galley offers exceptional functionality and features the same ample and easily accessible storage solutions present throughout the salon. Its placement within view of the helm facilitates enhanced communication and provides a clear visual connection between individuals in the interior and exterior of the vessel.

Additional features include:

  • Isotherm Marine front loading 130L refrigerator and a separate Isotherm Marine front loading 90L deep freezer, which is particularly advantageous for provisioning during extended voyages. These operate on either 12V power or via the engine
  • Double stainless steel sink that features a separate low flow water faucet to conserve water reserves
  • 3-burner stove and oven with a rotisserie
  • For safety, a propane gas detector and shutoff system are installed
  • The burner cover conveniently provides additional countertop space when the stove is not in use
  • The countertops are finished with Corian


HULL LAYOUT

The port and starboard hulls each offer a layout comprising two cabins and one head, resulting in a total of four cabins and two heads. The inclusion of large salon windows ensures ample natural light and ventilation throughout the hulls.

The two aft cabins are equipped with substantial athwartship berths, measuring approximately 7'2" by 6'6", which is comparable to a king-size bed. The two forward cabins feature double beds, sized at 6'3" by 4'7", offering versatility for various configurations. This adaptability allows for potential use as additional storage space or even a compact workshop if not required for sleeping accommodations.

Each cabin provides generous storage for personal items and clothing. The front-opening cabinets are designed with wooden door fronts in a basket weave pattern, promoting air circulation and inhibiting mildew growth.

Air conditioning is ducted into the starboard aft cabin. Furthermore, newly installed fans are present in the remaining cabins to enhance ventilation. The port aft cabin includes a radio separate from the vessel's primary audio system.

Both heads are fitted with a separate shower, a sink basin with storage underneath, and a full-length mirrored locker. The vessel features electric flush heads, with the starboard head having been newly installed in 2022. A pump-out connection is located on deck for the holding tank, and the plumbing allows for either raw water or freshwater flushing.

The remarkable amount of indoor and outdoor space afforded by a catamaran presents a significant advantage over a monohull. Beyond the expansive cockpit, the foredeck, featuring large trampolines and integrated seating, creates an ideal setting for enjoying evening sunsets. The wide and open side decks facilitate an unobstructed passage from the bow to the stern, even while the vessel is underway. Furthermore, the redesigned davit platform located aft simplifies dinghy boarding and enhances the flow of movement within the cockpit. This configuration is particularly well-suited for accommodating large groups or those traveling with pets. The starboard helm offers excellent forward visibility and a clear view of all corners of the vessel during docking maneuvers.
