The 2023 Knysna 500 SE is a 50-foot fiberglass catamaran designed for offshore cruising. Powered by two Yammer diesel engines of 114 horsepower each, she achieves a cruising speed of 8 knots and a maximum speed of 12 knots. The 26-foot beam provides excellent stability and interior space across her three cabins and three heads.
Launched in early 2024, the yacht carries approximately 900 engine hours of light, purposeful use. She is equipped with air conditioning, a watermaker, and an advanced Integrel Solutions power system paired with nearly 2000 watts of solar capacity—well-suited for extended cruising away from shore facilities. Her sail wardrobe and Bruntons Autoprop three-blade feathering propellers support both sailing and motoring performance.
Additional equipment includes a Highfield CL360 center console tender with a 25-horsepower Yamaha outboard. Recent maintenance has been completed with antifouling applied. The yacht comes furnished and ready for sea.
