Atolla

Atoll 50

 

This revolutionary design turns every head! Philippe Briand has caused quite a stir in the yachting community with his Atoll 50’. Specifically designed for warm climates she has a cockpit-salon & galley up. Down below there are 6 double cabins and 4 heads & showers, all spacious, comfortable and well ventilated thanks to her beam carried to the transom & state of the art design. The forward double cabins can easily be converted by removing the centre partition into 1 huge double cabin.

The spacious, shaded cockpit-salon seats 12 or more with long, comfy cushioned sofas & foldaway dining tables. The ceiling slides back so you can dine under the stars! She has a huge flat swim step (with fresh water shower) leading into the water, providing easy access for swimming and use of the dinghy. The galley is forward of the cockpit-salon, surrounded by windows it is both breezy and light. A huge fridge and freezer and plenty of counter & cupboard space allow you to provision for large numbers with no problem.

Forward there is a large deck for sunning and lounging. There is a huge coach roof over the galley, which is perfect for relaxing under the shade of the sails.

Her twin wheels allow for easy manoeuvring and excellent visibility from the helm. She has autopilot, depth and speed at the helms. The genoa sheets and mainsheet are worked easily from the helms or cockpit. The main halyard & reefing lines are at the mast. Sailing is stable and smooth. Her thoughtful owner has provided safety nets around the lifelines for extra peace of mind when sailing with children.

Leading from the salon-cockpit forward there are steps down to 4 double cabins, 2 forward (which easily convert into 1 huge cabin), 2 more either side and a head and shower each side. Mid Ships there are steps leading down from the salon/cockpit on each side, each leading to the 5th and 6th double cabins and another head & shower each side. Each double cabin has excellent headroom (over 6’3"), a good-sized double bed (not less than 6’5" long), lots of cupboard space, plenty of opening ports & hatches and cabin fans.
