Sunreef 50 Walkthrough w/ Commentary [4K]

[@alexschlitt6453]

I've watched many catamaran videos. However this is the only one I've watched 30 times. This beautiful vessel isn't even new. Amazing.

[@fredpenner5667]

I love this one as well. A perfect retirement home with a few modifications like turning a guest cabin into a gym and adding a small gardening area on the upper deck.

[@celestekreiner2855]

Toured this Sunreef 50 at Miami Boat Show. Been researching and touring various sail cats for several years. Definitely have fallen in love with Sunreef! Sunreef is stellar with attention to detail and the hardware is bar none! Semi-custom options are always an added bonus. If Sunreef is your favorite, this 50’ is bang for the buck - more spacious and luxurious than most of its size category. Love this Sunreef!

[@catamarancentral]

I couldn't agree with you more. Let me know if you ever need any help in your search for the perfect Sunreef.

[@glenpeters955]

I have always thought that 50' was the perfect size for a liveaboard catamaran but BOY, this is the biggest 50' cat that I have ever seen.

[@jeenyus720]

Thought the same thing, looks way too big for a couple without a crew.

[@bernardkariuki1365]

Meeee toooo. Bigger ones look like they are too much. A 50 foot sunreef though looks and feels like a comfortable yet homey home rather than a hotel you might be forced to leave soon.

[@gsadventures678]

I appreciate your honesty: "The owner has just sailed the absolute crap out of it." Fantastic!

[@Leosarebetter]

Yeah, I had a laugh at that as well. Its so refreshing to get the truth.

[@BlaBla-pf8mf]

Sunreef boats are amazing in terms of space and comfort. So much usable space on this one that it looks gigantic for a 50 footer.

[@catamarancentral]

It is absolutely amazing how spacious the boat is.

[@kjc9trader491]

@ 3:11 ...."sailed the absolute crap out of it".... Awesome!

[@mickspriggs7894]

Absolutely stunning boat!

[@catamarancentral]

Thanks Mick!

Love watching your videos, with the “panos”! Great job showing this beauty! Thank you for your hard work to get us excellent information and images of these crafts.

[@bucknaykid5821]

Great tour but I wish you could have shown the crew quarters

[@catamarancentral]

I wanted to respect the crew's privacy.

Ya, it's hard filming on an owner's boat. Good work though.

[@Shiddius]

Beautiful Cat. Would have really loved to have seen that crew cabin though

[@xyzaero]

OMG this 50 is HUGE !!! Compared to a Knysna, Xquisit, Privilige, Leopard, Lagoon ..... all the others look like tiny camping boats, even if they are the same length. This is unbelievable.

[@AhmadAlAjeel]

I wish they made one in the 40 to 45ft range

[@brunolameiras17]

Do you think this is capable of sailing around the world? And how easy do you think doing repairs on board is?

[@dr.growlife6112]

What an incredible boat. The quality is obvious. Not sure there is a better sailing yacht in the 50’ class.

[@catamarancentral]

I would tend to agree with you. She is a very well built boat.

[@jamielancaster01]

Price: an educated guess is better than NO price at all brother.

[@Stoic-of-Rome]

If you did not say the size of this boat I bet most people would think it was a 60 - 65. I think the flat decks and that huge flybridge tricks the eye!!

[@RR-kl6sl]

We're thinking about purchasing this one, but been trying to find some footage of the SR50 actually SAILING in some proper wind, do you have anything like that?

[@Dr-CAPT-Bret]

Did you checkout the engine room ? Is there space to service ? I know that boat had a full time captain.

[@chrisoleary9876]

What an impressive vessel! Great job as usual Wiley! Can't wait to meet you and get a "quick pano" in person!

[@catamarancentral]

Thanks for watching and taking the time to comment. I love making these videos.

[@vokstar]

"Entry level" Man that is a nice boat, ideal one would think for the owners circumnavigation, 18,000 miles on it and still looking good

[@nashvilletljc5904]

I’d love to see the crew cabins.

[@luc526]

How short hand can be? Excellent video!

[@dennisliew36]

HI there. In your tour of this boat, did you see a washing machine?

[@TB12710]

the new 2020 lagoon 67 is a little over 2m US$ , sunreef charges 7.3m US$ for their 80......👉 so these are prices #s for those trying to gauge cat prices.

[@markl8111]

As far as options, is there a hybrid electric drive system, with solar? In place of a sail rig, can they utilize a kite sail, powerboat option

[@catamarancentral]

There sure is Mark. Shoot me an email and I'll send you the details. [e-mail]

[@bernardkariuki1365]

hey, I wanted to ask, is a sunreef 50 something you can man as one lone person? Or is it too much.

[@bumblebee240.]

I wonder the same. Tell me if you find if it can be shorthanded.

[@bpl1376]

Great review as always - what a boat!

[@catamarancentral]

Many thanks!

[@nobigting]

Cheers Wiley, a 50 like this one is our bullseye 😉

[@nobigting]

These would make super comfy 8 pack boats, yeah?

[@catamarancentral]

Could easily be done in a 8 pax layout + crew cabin. Its amazing how spacious these things are... I would say she's bigger and more spacious than the 58 you all are running ;)

[@eZorglub0001]

Is that moving at more than 5 knots all sails out? How many tons is this Condo floating?

[@eddieohearn17]

To address any issues with the sail you have to get up on the Bimini top ... don’t like that at all. Steering is not protected during poor weather and that to sucks.

[@Kstruthers10]

Another great vid - thanks Wiley. Any thoughts on the helm on the flybridge being disconnected from the rest of the salon etc for a cruising couple. Quite different to say the Leopard 50 and the Bali range (I quite like the front door). Looks fantastic and I love the quality but is it too big for a couple (assuming the Leopard 50 is manageable)?

[@chunkychinn]

Would have been nice to see the crew areas??

[@FXPL9277]

I'd convert crew area into a workshop. At sea, these babes seems to enjoy being serviced...

[@michynature]

Crew areas? On a 50? At best a birth squished into the front tip of the hulls

[@FXPL9277]

@@michynature Exactly. Instead of these squished quarters, a complicated 50' like this deserves a nice workshop. Unless you just want to hang in the marina.

[@monstermegahoschi]

Whenever I hear you Florida guys say "boat", I chuckle.

[@bumblebee240.]

Can it be shorthanded?

[@ConFincham]

Stunning boat

[@catamarancentral]

I think so as well.

[@frklee]

How much is it？

[@bmjforbes]

Wow! Great video. Awesome boat. Incredible layout for the size! (still frustrated about lack of price/range...:-)

[@catamarancentral]

I think its amazing on what they were able to do with the Sunreef 50. Such an impressive yacht.

[@astudentpilotlife]

I come here to this video because of the long beach rental for $400/hour. What is the best time to sail this out from long beach to Catalina island. Do the rentaler need a boating license or with a sailor included in the package? We are planning to do this on 3-4 week from now.

[@bradscrazylife4269]

One of the best Cats yet

[@KylanHurt]

I honestly think I prefer the Bali 5.4. Sunreef should start doing solid foredecks.

[@RogerWilco1]

The one I’ve been waiting for! Thanks! Wait, no hot tub?!?? ;-) The deck looks to be a redwood color, not teak. Is it wood, or a new high tech solution so you don’t have to be refinishing teak constantly? I don’t want any teak. In fact, I’d like dark grey.

[@catamarancentral]

Its a faux teak finish. I'm not sure of the exact material, but definitely maintenance free.

[@RogerWilco1]

Wiley Sharp Catamaran Expert sweet!

[@jugaloking69dope58]

Tub could be hidden underneath the front right lounge cushions 🤔, might take away from the headroom of the front guest cabin

[@FXPL9277]

No sauna either! What a shame!

I need one with a hot tub 😖

[@rickymsilaen9094]

Is it an aluminum catamaran?

[@andrewlabat9963]

It's seems so much bigger than other fifties, the beam on this has gotta be quite a bit wider..

[@catamarancentral]

She's got a 30ft beam. She's one big girl

[@andrewlabat9963]

@@catamarancentral I was so glad to hear they are circumnavigateing the glob. You expect a high end cat just to stay with the within a certain geological area, so that's fantastic to hear.

[@FXPL9277]

She's a fantastic lady! Apart from the awfull "VIP's berth" (in such a large cabin!), she's near perfect. Is it possible to order it with a sport helm?

[@catamarancentral]

Unfortunately there isn't an option.

[@FXPL9277]

@@catamarancentral I dislike being isolated from my family and friends...

[@onajet1]

You do suck a great job of showing boats. You are correct about the price BUT you could say stuff like "New this boat ranges from $550,000 to just under $1.1m depending on your choice of trim" or things like that. Also I am from the Midwest and if I came down and bought a 50' boat could I legally sail it out into open waters? Or do I need a permit or license? I want to buy a cat next summer. Thanks

[@catamarancentral]

Dick, the range on the Sunreef 50 is between $1.7M to as high as $2M. You don't need a license to operate a boat like this privately, but you will need to meet your insurance companies requirements for coverage.

[@onajet1]

@@catamarancentral that is good to know. Price is about what I expected also. As the date gets closer I will reach out to you before I buy from anyone else. Thanks and keep up the good videos!!

Beginning to consider converting from a motor cruiser to sail... tired of smaller boats not having the range and larger boats being out of my range 😂

Catamarans make a great alternative to crosiers.

[@GeorgeLista]

Wiley Sharp Catamaran Expert which age range and model gets you most bang for your buck... I’m seeing 1998-2003 cruisers 12m+ providing great value and not too dated in style/features. I will start looking at catamarans too from now on although never been on one. Be interested to hear or see video from people doing both or going from one to the other - differences/pros/cons...

[@sonicglitchexe3947]

Wow! If you want to sell a yacht, or even charter. Your choice of wording isn't good..What maybe simple jester, can be disastrous. *18,000 miles on it* - The owner, *SAILED the ABSOLUTE CRAP out of it* That wording would be used more towards the 20 somethings age group. If it were just all fun and games talking. But a prospective buyer, *no* No matter the age. That's a huge let down. But to some, would be wondering why after that many miles. Problems ? I can see talking like that to a teen ager... Other then my rant.. Luv the cat..

[@MyTube4Utoo]

OMG! Enough political correctness already.

[@michaelm3986]

Lose the "Pano" lingo (no such word, and far from cool)....try saying "wide shot" or "panorama shot." Pano is annoying, as is whipping the camera around when going wide. When you turn.... do it slowly so we can see everything in slow motion. Thanks for the videos...just slow it down, take a deep breath and really show us the boat...where is the electrical panel, water-making, Genset, etc. You tend to like to show all the cosmetic stuff when we really know that it is the electrical (central nervous system) and mechanicals (muscular system) that make a boat special. Need more detail....please consider this feedback.
