Outremer 45 Buyer's Guide
Shopping the brokerage market for an Outremer 45 means choosing between two generations: the Gérard Danson original built from 2000 and the Barreau-Neuman redesign launched in 2014, with Patrick Le Quément styling and Darnet interiors. Both owner three-cabin and charter four-cabin layouts are well represented used, and ex-charter examples are common, so buyers should calibrate condition expectations against prior commercial use.
Layouts on the Used Market
Owner three-cabin and charter four-cabin arrangements appear in good numbers on the resale side, and ex-charter boats are a common sight. The saloon and cockpit share a 360° view, and a helm-centered layout places all maneuvers within reach — useful whether the boat was privately owned or run as a charter unit. The chart table sits for comfortable night watches without climbing on deck, a feature that matters on either layout when evaluating a tired ex-charter helm station.
Equipment and Common Upgrades
Well-equipped examples commonly carry solar, AIS, chartplotter, watermaker, autopilot, lithium batteries, inverter, self-tacking jib, asymmetric spinnaker, bimini, radar, spinnaker, and life raft. For buyer consequence, focus on the power and energy cluster — solar, lithium, inverter, and watermaker define off-grid range — and the sail-handling cluster of self-tacking jib and asymmetric spinnaker. Often-seen additions include a code zero, electric winches, heating, and freezer, which signal a higher-spec voyaging boat. Less common but valuable owner upgrades run to dinghy davits, cockpit shower, and air conditioning; a reduced-crew sailing configuration is a frequent owner refinement rather than a factory default.
What to Inspect
The 2018 structural revision shed nearly 500 kg using the same core materials as Gunboat cousins while making storage more ergonomic, so verify whether a candidate predates this change. In 2019, davits, bimini, and gennaker fittings became standard; earlier boats may show owner retrofits of varying quality. The 2020 CZone multiplexer integrated electrical control — confirm its function on later hulls. A documented Teoula example logged 40,000 miles and needed a full service and antifouling facelift to appear nearly new, a reminder that high-mileage hulls demand thorough drivetrain and hull surveys.
Availability and Buyer's Takeaway
Typical markets include France, the United States, Grenada, New Zealand, French Polynesia, and Australia. For a buyer, the checklist is brief: confirm generation and whether extended hulls are standard; test the CZone multiplexer on 2020-onward boats; inspect davit and gennaker fittings on pre-2019 hulls; validate solar and lithium capacity for intended passages; and weigh ex-charter history against documented mileage and refit evidence.
