ORC57 – 2024 – High‑Performance Carbon‑Optimized Catamaran

Avel Vaez is a 2024 ORC57 (formerly Marsaudon Composites), one of the most capable and exhilarating performance cruising catamarans available today. Designed by Marc Lombard and built by the renowned ORC / Marsaudon Composites yard in Lorient, the ORC57 is celebrated for its rare combination of race‑boat DNA, lightweight composite engineering, and true offshore cruising comfort. Avel Vaez elevates this pedigree even further with an exceptional list of factory upgrades, carbon reinforcements, premium rigging, and a full offshore sail wardrobe—making her one of the most comprehensively specified ORC57s ever delivered.

Built for sailors who value speed, simplicity, and safety, this ORC57 delivers effortless 15–20‑knot passages, fingertip control, and remarkable autonomy thanks to her upgraded lithium power bank, solar array, and high‑efficiency systems. Her Lorima full‑carbon mast, Kevlar standing rigging, Dyneema stays, and carbon structural elements significantly enhance stiffness and performance while reducing weight. The sail plan is equally impressive, with multiple gennakers, storm sails, and optimized furling systems for short‑handed or long‑distance sailing.

The cockpit and deck layout are designed for both performance and comfort. Carbon davits rated to 380 kg carry a 4.15 m Hypalon tender with a 25 HP Yamaha. Electric Harken winches, ACS safety system, and optimized deck hardware make maneuvers smooth and secure. A custom turquoise matte hull wrap gives Avel Vaez a striking, unmistakable presence in any anchorage.

Inside, the ORC57 offers a bright, modern living space with panoramic views, premium upholstery, and numerous custom enhancements. The salon features extended cabinetry, additional refrigeration, a large dining table for 10, and a redesigned galley with improved storage and ergonomics. The four‑cabin layout includes upgraded mattresses, 3D ventilation grids, enhanced lighting, and a custom skipper cabin with superposed berths. Comfort systems include a 105 L/h watermaker, large washing machine, multiple freshwater outlets, and extensive 220 V and USB power distribution.

Avel Vaez is fully equipped for serious offshore cruising and commercial operation. She carries a complete Category A safety kit for 12 persons, Spade anchor with 70 m chain, towing gear, emergency equipment, and commercial vessel compliance for ocean crossing. Her electronics suite is top‑tier: NKE performance pack with pilot backup, B&G radar on carbon mast support, Starlink, Iridium 13000 + 9575, and a dedicated navigation computer running TimeZero with Mediterranean and Atlantic charts.

Delivered in 2024 and meticulously specified, Avel Vaez represents a rare opportunity to acquire a near‑new, fully optimized ORC57 without the multi‑year wait and with every major upgrade already installed. She is turn‑key, powerful, elegant, and ready for her next ocean adventure.

Avel Vaez had a professional permanent crew on board from delivery (skipper and hostess) and she has been meticulously maintained and updated. She comes with her remarkable brand covering and registration for the ARC2026, ready to sail (already two participations in 2024 and 2025), with all the safety gear required by the ARC organization. She also took part in the Aegean 600, the RORC 600, Heineken Regattas and BVI regattas. She has a MOCRA and a CSA rating certificate.

Avel Vaez is available in Britany, France. We can organize delivery with a professional crew to the Med or the Caribbeans.
