2025 Saffier SC 6.50 Cruise

The Saffier SC 6.50 Cruise Custom is a new boat built to order. This sleek daysailer has modern technology and style with a classic feel. Featuring a self-tacking jib and gennaker on a furler, a large, ergonomic cockpit that seats six, and a deep spade rudder for performance. The bulb keel and modern rig offer excellent upwind sailing with a perfect balance in the boat. Inside, there is hidden space that sleeps two and can store bags and clothing. The Saffier SC 6.50 Cruise Custom is perfect for solo sailing and family cruising.

The classic lines above the water belie the modern technology below. A modern L- shaped Bulb keel provides excellent upwind sailing with a perfect balance in the boat. With the new keel shape, we were able to put the centre of gravity much lower down and ended up with 20% less weight in the keel but an even better righting moment. The deep spade rudder gives the helmsmen the right grip on all courses, keeping the Saffier SC 6.50 Cruise on her track. The design will appeal to a broad range of people who are looking for a simple-to-sail open yacht with beautiful lines and all the comfort and performance you expect from a modern daysailer.

The rig with a slightly roached mainsail and a self-tacking jib provides more than enough sail area to perform, especially in lighter winds, while the self-tacking jib means gybing and tacking is as easy as it gets.She can also be easily fitted out with a furling gennaker sail. This provides a very effective way of getting more sail area downwind or on a reach and the handling is as simple as a furling jib. Because of this rig the Saffier SC 6.50 Cruise is perfect for solo sailing and does not require an experienced crew.With all these modern features her performance is everything you would expect of a modern design.
