Rigid Hull & Deck Construction

A center cockpit with clean lines, moderate displacement, low freeboard, push button sailing. The refined Outbound 521 is prepared to delight a new generation of sailors.
Critical to our design refinement was building a yacht that can be handled by a cruising couple with ease. This means a moderate displacement hull, a low cockpit, and a short companionway. The result is a comfortable, easy to handle, and safe offshore passagemaker.
Designed and built to be as comfortable offshore as she is on the hook, the 521 features a center cockpit that is deep and secure. Sails and instruments are within easy reach and the short companionway makes the cockpit an extension of the interior with easy and safe access.
At Outbound Yachts we tackle safety from a performance and ergonomic point of view. Yachts designed to sail fast, not to mention avoid adverse weather. The 521 is optimized to fight fatigue with simple systems and excellent ergonomics, making her simply safer for the cruising couple.

As important as excellent construction and having the best equipment available is, the ability to easily perform maintenance on every system also means your Outbound will be sailing while others are dockside.
