Outremer 64 and Outremer 57: evolution of a performance philosophy

With the launch of the Outremer 64 and Outremer 57, the French shipyard continues to refine its long-standing vision of bluewater cruising, combining performance, reliability and durability. These two new catamarans represent different expressions of the same DNA, developed through forty years of experience in offshore multihulls.
 
Designed for extended periods at sea, both models place emphasis on natural light, ventilation and functional ergonomics. Interior layouts favor fluid circulation, contributing to safety underway and ease of life at anchor, while maintaining a clear focus on sailing efficiency.
 

Outremer 64

Positioned at the top of the range, the Outremer 64 marks a significant step in the shipyard’s evolution. Conceived as a bridge between Outremer’s performance-driven cruising heritage and the semi-custom yacht approach developed within the Grand Large Yachting group, the 64 benefits from close collaboration with the Gunboat teams.
 
The exterior design by Patrick le Quément gives the boat a balanced and contemporary profile, with controlled volumes and a low center of gravity. Although measuring 64 feet, the interior volumes are comparable to those of larger multihulls, without compromising weight management or sailing characteristics.
 

The layout allows for the presence of a professional crew if required, thanks to an independent skipper’s cabin and well-defined circulation paths. Living spaces include a protected cockpit, a bright saloon with panoramic glazing and a generously sized owner’s cabin. Particular attention has been paid to modularity: the “My Free Space” concept offers multiple configurations, allowing owners to adapt the boat to different cruising programs.

From a technical standpoint, the Outremer 64 features carbon daggerboards and mast, a refined sail plan and twin helm stations. The result is a catamaran designed to maintain performance and comfort even when fully equipped for long-distance cruising.

Outremer 57

The Outremer 57 follows in the wake of the Outremer 55, refining a format that has become emblematic of the brand. Its lines are clean and restrained, reflecting a design intended to remain relevant over time rather than follow short-lived trends.
 
Conceived for owners sailing with a small crew, the 57 prioritizes simplicity and balance. The interior has been reworked to improve storage capacity, technical access and load management, all key aspects for ocean passages. The connection between cockpit and saloon is particularly fluid, while the helm station benefits from improved ergonomics and visibility.
 
Natural ventilation is enhanced through additional hatches forward and to the sides, contributing to onboard comfort in warm climates. The galley and central island have been redesigned to support daily life at sea over long periods.
 

Equipped with daggerboards, a carefully controlled displacement and a sail plan derived from the Outremer 55, the 57 remains faithful to the brand’s reputation for efficient, forgiving performance. The emphasis is not on extremes, but on consistency, ease of handling and the ability to sustain high daily averages during long passages.
