Vaan yachts R5

About this yacht

The Vaan Yachts R5, in production since 2023, represents a compelling blend of performance and seaworthiness in a 14.94-meter aluminum sailing catamaran. Built to CE Category A certification, this bluewater-capable vessel is engineered for ocean passages and extended offshore cruising with confidence. Her aluminum construction delivers exceptional strength-to-weight ratio, contributing to responsive handling under sail while ensuring long-term durability in demanding marine environments. The shallow 1.20-meter draft opens up exploration possibilities in secluded anchorages and coastal waters often inaccessible to deeper-keeled cruising sailboats. Accommodating up to 12 guests across three well-appointed cabins, the Vaan R5 offers versatile layout options for families, groups, or charter operations. This performance cruiser strikes a practical balance between sailing capability and comfortable liveaboard space, making her equally suited for spirited coastal daysailing or serious passage-making across open water.
