The Kraken 50 is a semi-custom fiberglass sailing yacht built for serious offshore cruising. Her design centres on the Zero-keel construction—a structurally integrated keel with no bolts—engineered to withstand groundings and years of demanding use. The hull is hand-laid and heavily reinforced, delivering a stable, sea-kindly motion suited to extended ocean passages.
The yacht combines traditional bluewater principles with practical modern performance. A protected centre cockpit and thoughtfully arranged deck layout allow both shorthanded and crew sailing. The sail plan is powerful yet manageable, and the design balances efficiency with timeless aesthetics.
Below decks, the insulated interior accommodates both arctic and tropical cruising. Systems are positioned for accessibility and at-sea repair. Tankage supports long-range independence without frequent resupply. A single Yanmar diesel engine of 80 horsepower provides auxiliary power when needed.
The 50-foot beam of 14.76 feet reflects a hull optimised for offshore work—stability, carrying capacity, and the comfort needed for extended time at sea. This is a yacht designed not for day sailing, but for those committed to long passages, liveaboard life, and serious blue-water exploration.
