Catana is a French builder that has a well-earned reputation for building performance cats that are capable of high latitude sailing and circumnavigating. The new Ocean Class 50 replaces the great 47 that so many couples and families have sailed all over the world. The new design has reverse bows, narrow hulls, a high bridge deck, daggerboards, and a powerful rig with a self-tacking jib and a code zero. The raised helm to starboard has all control lines and sheets handy so a lone watch keepers can trim and reef without leaving the helm. The 50 comes with a standard three- cabin layout with the master suite to starboard and guest cabins to port. A handsome and thoroughly modern new entry in the cruising fleet, the OC 50 will appeal to cruisers with ambitions to sail far, sail fast and sail in both luxury and comfort. Learn more here.
