Outremer 50' Light

Description:

The Outremer 50' Light versions is uncompromisingly swift with considerably a smaller bridgedeck cabin and fewer berths than the beamier 50' Standard version (up to six are still accommodated in comfort, nevertheless). The reduced displacement and lower windage of the ‘Light’ model translates into more speed and better handling, giving them proven race wining capability.
