Prout 45

Omazey is a 1997 launch, built by Prout Catamarans in the UK. Renowned for being strong, sturdy world cruising vessels, this yacht served her owner well, sailing from the UK to Australia via West Indies and New Zealand.

The Prout 45 is a traveller's dream. Enter the spacious and functional cockpit with table, comfortable lounges, and a double helm chair. With the main mast bulkhead set back it enables a huge saloon area with wrap around lounge, large navigation station and great storage throughout. The galley is down in the hull, perfect for preparing a meal out at sea.

She features two queen sized cabins and a double sized cabin on the starboard side. Her owner's cabin features a private ensuite.

Like most original UK built Prouts, the 45 was set up with a cutter rig with the mast set well back for easy short-handed sailing and most of the lines running down the mast into the cockpit. With a smaller mainsail, a larger genoa and self-tacking staysail, this makes her very versatile and easy to handle with a shorthanded crew, or even on your own.

This is a functional, liveaboard cruising catamaran. She is solid fiberglass under the waterline, 9mm cored above the waterline, with Kevlar reinforcements. The original Prout Catamarans are renowned for their safety, load-carrying capabilities, reliability, ease of handling and comfort, and were designed for long-term live-aboard cruising and ocean passages.
