Sailing Enthusiasts Prefer Outremer Catamarans

The French word Outremer (ütrÉ™-mer) means “beyond the sea” or “distant lands”, and the Outremer Catamaran more than lives up to its name. The French company has a legendary history of making award-winning boats and their reputation continues today in crafting the finest sailing yachts in the world. Outremer’s strong AAA financial rating clearly stands above the crowd with banks guaranteeing that their boats will be built to exact pricing with on-time delivery. The VPLPO and Barreau-Neumann design teams are synonymous with the America’s Cup, which is the Formula 1 of the boat world and they’re directly involved with designing the Outremer Catamarans. Needless to say, Outremer catamarans are a customer favorite and a 2013 European Yacht of the Year winner that you can find sailing everywhere around the world today.

High Performance Sailing

Its unique and innovative design allows for transoceanic voyages where you can see the world in style and comfort. Besides its high performance cruising capabilities, the Outremer catamaran also offers great durability because of its resin-infused hull construction. The hulls are constructed from solid fiberglass laminate sheets with PVC foam cores. This style of construction is easily repaired and stands up to anything blue water, long-distance sailing can throw at it. Outremer backs their builds for 5 years and has a vast network of service points strategically placed along popular sailing cities.

True sailing enthusiasts know that the Outremer Catamaran has a smooth and natural helming sensation that is unlike any other sailing catamaran. The tiller steering gives a small boat feel on a large boat. The mechanical steering system is an option that gives the sailor the rush that you simple can’t get from a boat with hydraulic steering. The hulls carry daggerboards instead of keels which reduce drag and draft making them much faster. This shallow draft design permits the Outremer catamaran access to smaller anchorages or in an emergency to be beached without damage.
