51 Outremer 2021 Boat for Sale

Traverse Boat | 51' Outremer 2021

Traverse is a superb example of the acclaimed Outremer 51, a performance bluewater catamaran designed for sailors who refuse to compromise between speed, seaworthiness, and comfort. Built by Outremer in La Grande-Motte, France—a shipyard globally recognized for its expertise in long-range cruising catamarans—the 51 is celebrated for its lightness, balance, and agility at sea, all while offering remarkable liveability and understated luxury. It remains the benchmark for those looking to sail far, fast, and safely.

Delivered in 2022, Traverse is an Owner’s Version and embodies the very best of what this model represents. Her first owners undertook an ambitious voyage from Europe to New Zealand, a route that perfectly showcases her long-distance capability and inherent reliability. She was then entrusted to the hands of Mike Golding, one of the world’s most respected ocean racers and a veteran of the Vendée Globe. With his expertise and high standards, Traverse completed her return to Europe via the Pacific, Indian and Atlantic oceans, performing flawlessly throughout—an experience that further underlines her credentials as a capable, proven offshore cruiser.

Technically, Traverse is well equiped with a longeron that allows for a staysail, a valuable addition for serious bluewater sailing, enhancing versatility and control in heavy conditions. Traverse benefits from an optimized foam-core construction throughout the coachroof and structural elements—carefully engineered to reduce weight while maintaining strength, rigidity, and thermal insulation. These refinements contribute significantly to the boat’s exceptional sailing efficiency and handling.

Inside, her layout is refined and intelligently designed. The owner’s hull occupies the entire port side, offering a spacious aft cabin, generous storage, and a private en-suite with separate shower, ensuring exceptional comfort for life aboard. To starboard, the forward cabin has been thoughtfully converted into a flexible space—ideal as an additional berth, office, or utility area, depending on the needs of the voyage. The saloon is bright and panoramic, with excellent visibility, cross-ventilation, and an inviting dining area seamlessly connected to the galley.

Energy autonomy has been carefully considered with lithium batteries, solar power, and a Watt&Sea hydrogenerator, Traverse is ideally suited to long periods off-grid, offering freedom and self-sufficiency wherever you choose to explore. Every system onboard reflects the experience and standards of her owners, and her maintenance has been meticulous throughout.

Flagged in the UK and now offered at €1,039,000 ex VAT, Traverse is a rare opportunity to step into a nearly new, ocean-proven Outremer 51 without the waiting time of a new build. She is currently located at the Outremer shipyard in La Grande-Motte, where she was originally launched, and is being offered by the yard—with the full confidence, support, and technical insight that only the original builder can provide.

Whether you dream of a family sabbatical, a high-latitude adventure, or an effortless circumnavigation, Traverse is more than ready to take you there—with elegance, integrity, and unmatched performance.
