About the Privilege 650

Launched in 2022, this luxury catamaran represents the latest evolution in Privilege Marine's prestigious lineup of long-distance cruising vessels. The collaboration between Marc Lombard and Franck Darnet Design has produced a sophisticated platform that balances performance with the comfort expectations of serious blue-water cruisers. At nearly 70 feet overall with a 30-foot beam, the 650 offers exceptional interior volume while maintaining the seaworthy characteristics that have made Privilege catamarans favorites among circumnavigators. The fractional sloop rig and twin-keel configuration provide excellent sailing performance, with the substantial sail area delivering respectable speeds while remaining manageable for short-handed crews. Built using advanced GRP construction techniques, the design emphasizes structural integrity for offshore passages while incorporating modern amenities expected in this class. The twin 110-horsepower engines provide reliable auxiliary power and impressive range under power. The moderate draft allows access to shallow anchorages without sacrificing stability in challenging conditions. This model continues Privilege's reputation for building expedition-capable catamarans that don't compromise on luxury. The 650 is ideally suited for extended offshore cruising, whether island-hopping in the Caribbean or undertaking trans-oceanic passages, making it a compelling choice for serious cruising sailors seeking both comfort and capability.
