Outremer Outremer 5X
About this yacht
The Outremer 5X represents a compelling synthesis of bluewater capability and refined cruising comfort. Built by the renowned French shipyard Outremer since 2013, this 18.28-meter performance cruiser has earned its reputation among experienced sailors who refuse to compromise between speed and liveability. With a shallow 1.3-meter draft and CE (A) certification for offshore passages, the Outremer 5X is engineered for serious ocean crossings. Her lightweight composite construction and carefully balanced sail plan deliver exceptional speeds while maintaining the stability and safety critical for extended voyages. This is a sailing yacht designed for ambitious itineraries—whether island-hopping through the Caribbean or tackling transoceanic passages. What distinguishes the Outremer 5X from conventional cruising catamarans is her accessibility. Despite her 60-foot length, she's purposefully designed for short-handed sailing. Controlled displacement and well-proportioned sail area mean a couple can confidently manage her in all conditions. Four distinct helm stations—two wheels and two carbon tillers—provide exceptional control and adaptability, whether you're navigating tight anchorages or running downwind in open water. The interior, crafted by designer Franck Darnet, balances functionality with sophistication. Three guest cabins offer comfortable accommodation for extended cruising, while the flowing layout maximizes the generous beam without feeling cavernous. Materials and finishes are fully customizable—select wood veneers, lacquered cabinetry, upholstery fabrics—allowing owners to create an environment that reflects their personal aesthetic. The Outremer 5X occupies a distinctive position: larger and more spacious than the Outremer 51, yet still manageable for experienced couples. She appeals to sailors who prioritize performance without sacrificing the comfort and space essential for long-range cruising. This is a bluewater sailboat for those who understand that true capability comes from thoughtful design, not simply size.
