The Contest 45CS is a 45-foot sailing yacht built by the Dutch shipyard Contest in 2011. Her fiberglass hull measures 13.45 feet across the beam and is powered by a single 75-horsepower Yanmar diesel engine. The design combines capable sailing performance with a layout that remains manageable for a small crew, making her well-suited to extended passages and coastal cruising alike.
The yacht features two cabins and a spacious, well-appointed interior finished to a high standard. The deck layout is open and functional, supporting both sailing operations and comfortable time at anchor. Her elegant hull lines and careful joinery throughout reflect the quality of her construction.
This Contest 45CS has been maintained in good condition and is equipped for serious cruising. She represents a well-built example of her class, offering the combination of performance and seaworthiness the model is known for.
