About the Outremer 49 Sailboat

French catamaran builder Outremer earned its reputation crafting fast, seaworthy multihulls for serious blue-water cruisers, and the 49 exemplifies this heritage perfectly. Produced between 2010 and 2012, this design from the Barreau/Neuman team represents the sweet spot for performance-oriented cruising couples seeking to cover ocean miles efficiently. With nearly 49 feet of waterline length and a substantial sail area-to-displacement ratio of 29.18, the Outremer 49 delivers the exhilarating sailing performance that defines the brand. The fractional sloop rig and twin daggerboard configuration provide excellent upwind ability while maintaining the shallow draft versatility essential for catamaran cruising. Construction features infused fiberglass with PVC foam core topsides and deck, utilizing vinylester resin for superior durability in marine environments. The generous 24-foot beam offers stability and spacious living areas, while twin 39-horsepower engines ensure reliable auxiliary power. This catamaran excels at offshore passage making, combining speed with the comfort and safety that long-distance cruisers demand. Outremer's reputation for building robust, ocean-proven vessels makes the 49 particularly appealing to sailors planning extended voyages or circumnavigations where performance and reliability are paramount.
