Marc Lombard's design for Jeantot Marine represents a compelling entry point into the world of performance cruising catamarans. Built between 1995 and 2003, this French-constructed vessel demonstrates the European approach to multihull design during the late 20th century's catamaran renaissance. The Privilege 37's twin-keel configuration and shallow draft of just under four feet opens up countless cruising destinations, from the Bahamas' shallow banks to Mediterranean anchorages. Her generous beam provides exceptional stability and interior volume, creating comfortable living spaces that belie her modest length overall. The masthead sloop rig delivers respectable performance with manageable sail handling for short-handed crews. With a sail area to displacement ratio of 23.8, this catamaran strikes a thoughtful balance between spirited sailing performance and cruising comfort. The fiberglass construction ensures durability while keeping maintenance requirements reasonable for long-term ownership. Jeantot Marine's reputation for solid craftsmanship adds confidence for those considering offshore passages. This design appeals particularly to couples or small families seeking a stable, spacious platform for coastal and offshore cruising. The twin-engine configuration provides reliable auxiliary power and excellent maneuverability in tight quarters, making marina navigation straightforward despite the wide beam.
