2017 OUTREMER 51 “Alegria”
Carbon enhanced. Owner’s Version | World-cruising proven | Exceptionally equipped | US duty paid.
Meet “Alegria,” one of the best-equipped and upgraded Outremer 51s ever built. She has been loved and cared for by her owners, who are completing a full circumnavigation with the World ARC. Now in the final weeks of the journey, she will be arriving in Fort Lauderdale in a few short weeks.
This performance cruiser has done exactly what she was built to do—cross oceans, carry her crew safely, and deliver them around the world. Every system, upgrade, and spare onboard reflects that reality: she is not theoretical, she is proven.
If you are looking for an Outremer 51, this is a boat with a story—and a future just as big.
Alegria sports a carbon mast, carbon longeron, carbon bulkheads, a carbon bimini, and a carbon steering wheel.
The benchmark for blue-water cruising.
With a load capacity far greater than that of the Outremer 45, this best-selling family boat from the Outremer range, twice awarded European Yacht of the Year and Boat of the Year in the United States, is the benchmark cruising catamaran for families sailing around the world. Powerful yet easy, with unequaled resilience, it has proven itself time and again.
“Alegria” is not just well equipped—she is purpose built, upgraded, and proven. From enhanced carbon construction to lithium power, massive solar, redundant systems, and a sail inventory for every condition, she reflects an owner who prepared seriously for world cruising.
Now completing her World ARC circumnavigation and finishing her final leg after a Cape Town refit, she stands as one of the most capable and carefully prepared Outremer 51s afloat.
If you are looking for a blue-water catamaran with a real pedigree, this is it.
