The new Privilège Signature 580 has a hard act to follow. Its predecessor, the 585, continues to be a much sought-after blue water yacht famous for its heavy weather sailing ability and liveaboard capacity.
The new 580 is designed and built to improve on that record.
The Privilège Signature 580 is available with a forward lounge that can be accessed from both the salon and the owner’s suite. A second option that uses the foredeck area for storage is also available, eliminating the forward cockpit lounge and direct access from the salon and owner’s cabin.
A serious offshore yacht should not be burdened with sail drives. A robust shaft drive installation ensures that engine and transmission components are accessible while the boat is in the water.
The helm position provides greater visibility and direct communication to the cockpit and the upper fly deck. An intelligent line management system allows you to trim and adjust your sails without ever leaving the helm. Also, single line reefing, main halyard, main sheet and genoa sheets are led to two electric winches right at the helm. The genoa is easily controlled by the standard electric furling system.
The forward facing navigation position is an ideal location to plot your next course. The spacious work area gives you plenty of room to plan your passages and stay in touch with the cruising community.
Join us at the upcoming Cannes Yachting Festival this September 6 – 11 where we will have a new Privilège 580 on display. This is an excellent opportunity to get on board for an in-depth tour of the yacht with Rob Poirier.
A unique feature of Privilège catamarans is the semi-custom nature of the build. The Privilège 580 is one of the most customizable in the fleet.
During the hive of activity in the hull, the deck is being layed up. The deck is more laborious than the hull due to its seemingly endless nooks and crannies.
