Vaan yachts R6

About this yacht

The Vaan R6 represents a bold new direction in aluminum catamaran construction since her introduction in 2024. Stretching 17.68 meters, this sailing yacht combines the strength and durability of aluminum with the stability and space that defines modern catamaran design. With accommodations for up to 12 guests across 4 cabins, the Vaan yachts R6 delivers genuine liveaboard comfort without sacrificing performance. Her shallow 1.30-meter draft opens access to secluded anchorages and coastal cruising grounds that remain off-limits to deeper-keeled vessels, while her CE Category A certification confirms her capability for extended offshore passages and bluewater exploration. The aluminum construction offers distinct advantages for serious cruisers: exceptional strength-to-weight ratio, corrosion resistance in saltwater environments, and reduced maintenance demands compared to traditional materials. This is a cruising sailboat engineered for owners who value both adventure and reliability, whether island-hopping through the Mediterranean or undertaking longer ocean crossings.
