The Prout Quasar 50 represents the pinnacle of the Prout family’s vision for the ultimate long-distance cruising catamaran. Launched during an era when multihulls were still carving out their place in the bluewater community, the Quasar 50 was a statement of scale and security. As the flagship of the Prout line, it was designed to offer the volume of a much larger vessel while maintaining the ease of handling required for a short-handed couple to circumnavigate. Built with a robust, heavy-displacement philosophy, the Quasar 50 eschewed the "flying hull" performance of modern racing catamarans in favor of a steady, upright platform that could carry several tons of cruising gear without compromising its safety margins.
