Discover the 2022 Knysna 500SE, a masterpiece from the renowned Knysna Yacht Company, seamlessly blending performance, style, and comfort for the discerning sailor. This sailing catamaran is designed for couples dreaming of living aboard and exploring the world’s oceans with ease and confidence.

Crafted in Knysna, South Africa, by a company with a rich heritage in bespoke yacht building, the Knysna Yacht Company, founded in 2002 by Kevin Fouché, has always prioritised quality over quantity. Their focus on limited production ensures each yacht is a meticulously built, high-performance vessel. The Knysna 500SE — or “Special Edition” — embodies this philosophy, offering a sporty, sleek profile with exceptional finishes. She’s a true evolution from her predecessors, boasting improved design and enhanced functionality for the ultimate bluewater cruising experience.

With sleek lines and exceptional visibility from the helm, the 500SE offers truly short-handed operation. Her hull design provides a smooth, sea-kindly motion, thanks to a long waterline and wide beam for superior stability.

On deck, halyards and reef lines run conveniently to the helm for effortless control. The gently sloped transom steps make dinghy boarding a breeze, with custom lifting tackle to secure your tender. She excels in all conditions, equipped with a full-batten mainsail on a BattCar system and an electric furling genoa. For lighter, off-wind sailing, a screecher on a top-down Karver furler and an asymmetric spinnaker deliver impressive speed.

Quite frankly, this 2022 Knysna 500SE is arguably the most comprehensively equipped modern 50ft sailing catamaran we’ve ever had the pleasure to market. The specifications here are just a glimpse; please do contact us for a comprehensive inventory.

More than just a yacht, the Knysna 500SE is the perfect blend of luxury, ease of handling, and adventure, ready to take you on your next global exploration in unparalleled comfort.
