Description:
The St Francis 500 is the result of a close design collaboration between Anton du Toit of Du Toit Yacht Design, Angelo Lavranos, and St Francis Catamarans, with valuable input from brokers and owners. Building on the proven success of the St Francis 460, the St Francis 500 retains the protected helm station, spacious interior, and renowned performance characteristics, while introducing refinements such as a larger hardtop, extended transom, integrated swimming platform, and enhanced keels.
Designed as a true liveaboard blue-water cruiser, the St Francis 500 can be sailed short-handed on long passages, offering exceptional comfort, safety, and reliability. Available in a three-cabin Owner’s Version or a four-cabin layout, the vessel is delivered fully equipped with premium systems and equipment.
Sparcraft Masts is proud to have designed, manufactured, and supplied the mast, boom, standing and running rigging, crossbeam, and longeron with integrated anchor launch system, as well as the Profurl electric genoa furler and Facnor electric screecher furler
