UNIVERSE is a 53ft Schionning G-FORCE 1500C, custom-built and continuously upgraded to deliver elite bluewater performance without sacrificing comfort. Designed for sailors who value speed, agility, and efficient long-range cruising, she has been meticulously refined into a turn-key performance machine.
The current owners purchased UNIVERSE in 2019 and spent a season exploring the BVI and Caribbean. In 2020, she arrived in Fort Lauderdale, where an extensive program of engineering, weight optimization, and premium upgrades transformed her into one of the finest Schionnings afloat.
Built for Speed & Efficiency
Every enhancement was made with precision and purpose:
Hull extensions for superior hydrodynamics
Strategic weight management for optimal lightness
Carbon fiber beams and davits for strength without added weight
Built in the Netherlands by PreCat VOF, her Airex foam-core fiberglass hulls are vacuum-infused with epoxy for maximum strength and minimal weight. At her most recent haulout, she registered only 8.4 metric tons, significantly lighter than most comparable boats.

B&G Navigation Suite & H5000 Autopilot - Advanced sailing intelligence for shorthanded or solo sailing
