VAAN R5
23Pages

At 49ft the Vaan R5 really goes the distance. A luxury platform to explore the most distant places and faraway islands. A spacious sailing machine for couples to large families. And like every Vaan it is made of circular materials and almost entirely recyclable. A true testament to the Vaan mission: Sail the Planet. Let’s go.

The open spaciousness of the R5 transforms this sailing cat into your penthouse on the water. Even with a family of six you can spend a year exploring the planet. And with the Live-Aboard version, indoor comfort is even more grand.

MOVING FORWARD The optional forward seating area offers a nice cooling breeze while at anchor. Or a beautiful sunrise view while you’re having your first cup of coffee. The table can be raised to provide seating for 3-4 people, or lowered to offer a large lounge bed. And why not fill the bottom section with some ocean water for the kids to play in or for you to cool off in? Hello jacuzzi:)

HOME AWAY FROM HOME In the evening, when lights are dimming, the saloon provides the ultimate view of the starry night sky. The wrap-around windows give a great sense of freedom and transparency, with all the coziness you want from a home. NOTE: This is a preliminary brochure for the Vaan R5.

THAT WALK-IN FEELING The R5 is all about space and no place makes that more clear than the walk-in closet in both hulls. The five closets on the right hold enough cloths to spend months away from home, and buy some new ones along the way. The optional dresser on the left gives you extra drawers for accessories and other smaller items. NOTE: This is a preliminary brochure for the Vaan R5.

RECYCLED \ ALUMINIUM The design of every Vaan is based on circular principles from the start. It is mostly made of recyclable materials and it is almost completely recyclable itself. The hull is made of more than 50% recycled aluminium like old window frames, traffic signs and license plates. Some parts contain even more than 85% reused materials. Aluminium also has an excellent track record for its strength, safety and flexibility. And of course it has a great look.
