2022 Outremer 5X ‘S/V CYAN’: A 60-Foot Bluewater Cat

A rare, performance-bred 60-foot Outremer catamaran built for serious ocean miles.


The Outremer 5X is the French yard’s flagship performance cruising catamaran, and S/V CYAN — a 2022 build — represents one of the most capable bluewater platforms afloat. Presented by broker Alexis de Boucaud, this 60-foot cat pairs Outremer’s signature light-displacement engineering with the accommodations and range voyaging couples and families expect for extended offshore passages.

Built for Miles, Not Marinas

The 5X is the boat Outremer owners graduate to when they intend to circumnavigate. Long, narrow hulls, a powerful sailplan and a helm philosophy that keeps the skipper connected to the sea state make her fast in light air and forgiving in a blow. At 60 feet, she offers volume without sacrificing the responsive, tiller-and-daggerboard sailing feel that defines the brand.

About S/V CYAN

Commissioned in 2022, CYAN is a young example of the model — a boat still well within its early cruising life, and one that reflects current-generation systems, layouts and finish from the La Grande-Motte yard. For buyers who have been watching the 5X market, fresh inventory at this age is uncommon.

The Outremer 5X remains a scarce sight on the brokerage market — production numbers are small and boats tend to change hands quietly.
