Outremer 55 Light 2002

LIL BEAR is a high-performance Outremer 55 light, expertly equipped for serious voyaging. With cutting-edge sails and efficient solar power and refrigeration systems, she boasts impressive sailing speeds, capable of covering 200 to 240 nautical miles in a day. Thanks to her excellent weather routing capabilities, LIL BEAR can effectively navigate or outrun harsh weather conditions. Built to last with robust fiberglass hulls, she earned the title of Cruising World's "Best Cruising Multihull" in 2000. The motivated owner is open to offers, and the boat is in superb condition. LIL BEAR is a true performance-oriented vessel, ideal for cruising enthusiasts looking to achieve extensive 200+ mile days at sea. In terms of both performance and comfort, she offers exceptional value for her size and quality. Recently refitted between January and April 2008, she received a brand new Z-Spar mast, standing rigging, and top-tier cruising laminate sails (Hydranet radial main, jib, and screecher) costing $38,000, alongside another $40,000 for the new mast and running rigging. The total refit investment was approximately $100,000. The current owners acquired her in 2011 and have enjoyed light day sailing around San Francisco Bay, with occasional excursions beyond. In addition to her upgraded sails and rigging, LIL BEAR features a Spectra Santa Cruz watermaker, four solar panels, an Equinox heating system, a large newer Dacron screecher, a 2002 Quantum asymmetrical spinnaker in excellent condition, separate Isotherm refrigerator and freezer, multiple anchors, an oversized Lofrans windlass, two new Raymarine autopilots, a Victron Inverter, a 2013 Raymarine Hybrid Touch multifunction display with radar and AIS, and a new Achilles 10' 4" tender with a 2013 20 HP Honda 4-stroke outboard. With a 737.5 HP Nani diesel engine installed in 2014 and the starboard Nani replaced in 2009, LIL BEAR is configured with spacious queen berths in the aft, central heads, and large centrally-located showers in each hull. The forward sections of each hull offer V-berths that can be arranged as singles or converted into "over and under" bunk beds. LIL BEAR is perfectly set up for long passages, providing both comfort and remarkable speed, making her a turnkey catamaran for the dedicated sailing aficionado.
