The Tilapia 6.50, designed by the prolific French naval architect Pierre Rolland, represents a sophisticated departure from traditional coastal cruiser design. Conceived as a "neo-catboat," this 21-foot vessel aims to strip away the complexities of modern sailing—eliminating stays, shrouds, and headsails—in favor of a high-performance, minimalist configuration. Originally built by the French shipyard Morgère (and later associated with Atelier d'Interface Marine), the Tilapia 6.50 was part of a small family of cat-rigged cruisers that included the smaller Tilapia 550 and the larger Tilapia 700. While it shares a length-over-all with the famous "Mini 6.50" offshore racers, the Tilapia 6.50 is focused on accessible coastal speed and "beachable" versatility rather than grueling transatlantic competition.
