The 45 Cantius takes style and enjoyment to new heights, fusing 360-degree visibility through sweeping windows with aft opening panes so family and friends stay connected to the water in every moment. An aft galley services both cockpit and salon with effortless grace, ensuring conversation and cuisine flow as one convivial space.

Salon/dinette

Flooded with natural light, the salon affords excellent 360-degree visibility, anchored by a C‑shaped raised dinette with a removable table that invites lingering conversations. Pleated blinds temper the ambiance as desired, while the aft galley design keeps service seamlessly close. A powered sunroof with shade opens the sky, and side opening window vents usher in fresh breezes. Entertaining moves effortlessly through a large glass door to the cockpit and an opening glass panel aft of the galley, with two reclining seats to starboard offering a relaxed vantage point. Thoughtful storage cabinets keep the space tidy, a flat-screen TV on a swivel bracket pivots to the moment, and 110‑volt GFCI outlets alongside the AC/DC breaker panel deliver convenient, protected power throughout.

Galley

Perfectly positioned aft to serve both salon and cockpit, the up galley is appointed for gourmet ease with a Nova Kool side‑by‑side refrigerator and freezer, a generous Corian countertop, and a stainless steel sink with a matching Corian cover. A Princess two‑burner electric stove beneath its Corian cover and a Cuisinart microwave/convection oven extend culinary versatility, while aft windows that open outward and abundant storage make preparation and hosting effortless.

Guest stateroom/ center cabin

The inviting center cabin features a double berth with a therapeutic foam mattress for restorative rest, complemented by a chaise lounge and two recliners that convert to an additional berth when needed. A cedar‑lined hanging locker and a large aft‑wall mirror add refinement, while an LG TV with a Sony DVD player, expansive windows with blinds, and ample storage complete a serene retreat for guests.

Corian tile flooring underfoot, towel bars, and a protected 110V GFCI outlet complete a space that is as practical as it is polished.

Master stateroom forward

Forward, the master stateroom centers on a true queen berth with a therapeutic foam mattress and its own ensuite head for complete privacy. An LG flat‑screen TV and a Sony AM/FM CD/DVD player provide entertainment, while warm walnut cabinetry, large portlights, and an overhead hatch with screen and cover bathe the space in natural light.

Command comes naturally at the helm with a double‑wide, adjustable seat and a tilt steering wheel placed for all‑day comfort. Precision docking is at your fingertips via the IPS joystick, complemented by windlass, spotlight, and trim tab controls, a dedicated Volvo engine display, and a supportive footrest. A vent window delivers fresh air and clear dockside communication, while the keyless ignition system, air‑conditioner vents, defrosters, and a high‑water alarm add confidence. Navigation and awareness are elevated by two Garmin 7212 displays with a software update, a new Garmin radar added in 2018, and a new Garmin backup camera installed in 2018.

Garmin electronics package

Designed for clarity and control, the suite centers on two Garmin 7212 color‑screen monitors that share chartplotter, sonar, and radar functions, with the network updated new in 2018. Deep detail comes via Garmin sonar with a 2 kW transducer, while course‑keeping is entrusted to the Garmin GHC 10 autopilot. A Garmin 48‑mile dome radar, Garmin G2 Vision SD chart card, and a Garmin GHS 10 VHF radio complete a cohesive, cruise‑ready package.

Electronics

The yacht’s broader electronics include Intellian SAT TV (no receivers), a Ritchie compass, and Sirius weather for timely forecasts. A Go search light stands ready alongside stereo control, single‑lever controls, and a precise joystick. Power and practicality arrive with two 12V outlets, a horn, windshield wipers, trim tabs, and an anchor windlass, while a Land & Sea WiFi booster helps keep you connected.

Electrical

Robust onboard power is assured by a 13.5 kW Kohler generator showing 465 hours and a single 50 amp retractable shore‑power connection. Systems include a 120/240 volt DC system and a 12/24 volt DC system, a Kuuma 11‑gallon water heater, and a Charles ISO Boost 50 battery charger, supported by a battery isolator, battery parallel switch, bonding system, and a comprehensive distribution panel. Convenience and safety are enhanced by GFCI‑protected outlets, all new AGM batteries installed in 2018, and a new 12V busbar with wires retipped for reliability.

Mechanical

Performance and confidence stem from twin Volvo D6‑IPS 600 engines rated at 435 HP each, with 430 hours, supported by engine‑room blowers and lighting. Reliability is bolstered by a new engine CPU with a 2018 software update, a bilge pump with auto float switch, a high‑water alarm, an automatic fire‑extinguisher system, and an oil‑exchange system. Fuel stays pristine through an Algae‑X conditioning system, while climate control comes from two Cruisair air conditioner/heater units, recently serviced and acid‑washed with a custom flush manifold. Handling benefits from Bennett trim tabs with new cylinders, actuators, and controls in 2018, and cruising convenience is elevated by a waste‑tank macerator and a hydraulic swim platform that received complete service in 2018.

Cockpit

Designed for social ease, the cockpit features an L‑shaped lounge with storage beneath, forward‑ and aft‑facing seating that converts into a sun lounge, and an aft‑facing jump seat at the swim platform. Fresh 2018 covers protect all seating, while a retractable Power SureShade sun awning extends cool comfort. Entertaining is effortless with a Kenyon electric grill and a Vitrifrigio refrigerator, and access is practical via a swim ladder and an engine‑room hatch. Two stowable cockpit tables, stereo speakers, courtesy lights, and a transom storage garage with a power hatch and a new actuator in 2018 add versatility, alongside a hot‑and‑cold cockpit shower, wide side decks for safe, easy bow access, a hydraulic swim platform connection, and removable cockpit floor covering.

Deck and hull

Secure passage forward comes via wide side decks with protective rails, leading to a polished stainless‑steel anchor, sun pads with chaise lounge and new covers in 2018, and a robust stainless‑steel bow rail with safety handrails. A recessed windlass and raw‑water washdown streamline anchoring, while a windshield cover and deck hatch add practicality. The bottom received new anti‑fouling paint in May 2020, LED underwater lights were rebuilt in 2018, windlass controls on deck were serviced in 2018, and new canvas covers round out the upgrades.
