What the model is suitable for
conditionally suitable for blue-water sailing and long-distance cruising
Older generation of the Outremer 45 to a design by Gérard Danson. Documented are a race win at the OSTAR 2000, the length of 13,71 m and a single forum statement about cracks on early boats. Nothing is available on construction, systems and seakeeping; the assessment rests on the absence of evidence.
