The exterior design is once again the work of René van der Velden and clearly follows the lines of the tried-and-tested Voyager range. However, with its compact, elongated silhouette and low profile, the Voyager 50 looks considerably sportier than its sister models – and cuts a fine figure in the Mediterranean too.
Life out in the open on deck
The spacious cockpit invites you to enjoy pleasant hours in the fresh air, whilst the expansive aft deck provides the perfect setting for cosy moments with family and friends. A large storage compartment with an electrically operated access hatch in the transom offers space for bicycles or other luggage. A hydraulic floating platform can be fitted as an option, on which a tender up to 3.85 metres in length can be carried. Stabilisers and Humphree HE750 interceptors are available as options for added comfort whilst underway.
A comfortable saloon and flexible layout
Thanks to the upright front window, the saloon offers a surprising amount of space – considerably more than on comparable yachts in this class. The interior is designed to accommodate up to eight people and comprises a comfortable saloon with a well-equipped galley, three cabins with six berths, and a bathroom. As the Voyager 50 is built entirely from aluminium, the layout, materials and fittings can be customised entirely to the owner’s specifications.
Handling characteristics
The standard bow and stern thrusters make manoeuvring in harbour easier, whilst the 480-PS engine enables a top speed of up to 22 knots. The open-plan layout and low step-in height also make the Voyager 50 comfortable to use well into old age – a yacht for every stage of life.
