Sunreef 50 overview
The Sunreef 50 is a 15.20-metre luxury sailing catamaran that uses its 9.10-metre beam to create significantly more living area than a monohull of comparable length. It is offered in classic and eco-oriented versions and is designed as a compact entry into Sunreef's sailing range without giving up the broad deck areas, flybridge and custom interior approach associated with the builder's larger multihulls.
The flybridge carries the main helm but also functions as a leisure deck, with space for movable furniture, a wet bar and sunbathing areas. The wide platform also creates generous foredeck and cockpit zones, making the yacht particularly suitable for owners whose time aboard is heavily weighted toward anchoring, outdoor dining and extended stays in warm climates.
Dimensions and capacities
Current official specifications give an overall length of 15.20 metres and beam of 9.10 metres, with composite construction. The classic version is listed with twin 80 hp engines, 1,000 litres of fuel and 800 litres of fresh water. Sunreef publishes accommodation capacity for up to ten guests, depending on the chosen interior arrangement.
The sailing plan includes an 80-square-metre mainsail and a 79-square-metre genoa. Sunreef also publishes approximately 167 square metres of living space, illustrating why length alone is a poor measure when comparing a beamy catamaran with a conventional 50-foot monohull.
Classic and eco choices
Sunreef offers both conventional and more electrified or solar-led configurations. Buyers should therefore compare not only headline dimensions but also propulsion, energy storage, solar generation and the intended cruising profile of the specific specification being considered. The broad platform provides considerable roof and deck area for energy systems, one of the reasons this model has been used as a basis for the builder's eco developments.
Luxury Yacht Guide assessment
The Sunreef 50 is especially relevant to buyers prioritising living volume, stability at anchor and customisation over the narrower footprint of a monohull. At just over 15 metres long, it demonstrates how a multihull can deliver accommodation and deck area associated with much longer yachts, while the trade-off is a 9.10-metre beam that requires more careful berth planning.
