Voyage 510 Buyer's Guide
The Voyage 510 is the more compact sister to the Voyage 590 and the newest performance cruising catamaran from Cape Town’s Voyage Yachts, a builder long focused on bluewater multihulls. For a shopper scanning the brokerage market, the 510 is a large, light-displacement platform whose standard equipment and structural details matter more than trim differences, since the model is young and ex-charter examples are common.
Layouts on the Used Market
Charter four-cabin arrangements are the more common on the used market, though both layout types remain available, and ex-charter examples are common. The standard boat provides four cabins and four heads sleeping eight to ten, while the owner-choice plan adds up to four identical en-suite guest cabins plus two further en-suite crew quarters. A mid-deck living and dining area flows into the galley and helm, and a flybridge lounge adds a top-side social space. Buyers should confirm which layout a specific hull carries, as the crew-quarter version changes the below-deck balance significantly.
Equipment and Common Upgrades
Factory specification already covers the systems that matter for offshore use. Power and energy are handled by twin 57-hp Yanmar diesels with shaft drive, a 24V/12V DC supply, Victron shore charger, and a 600 amp-hour house bank, so most buyers need only assess battery health rather than plan a rebuild. Sail handling is led from the helm through all control lines, with Andersen winches, Harken gear, and Spinlock organizers as delivered. Ground tackle is substantial from new: a Lofrans windlass, 50 kg Delta anchor, and 80 m of galvanized chain. The available listings data shows no commonly fitted or often-seen aftermarket packages, so any added equipment should be assessed as present on that hull rather than assumed standard.
What to Inspect
The composite construction uses polyester resin with quadriaxial glass and an infused hand lay-up, and bulkheads are tabbed to hull, deck, and coachroof anchor. Verify the forward watertight compartments with horizontal bulkheads are intact and that the anti-osmotic epoxy coating on the underwater body shows no blistering. With four automatic bilge pumps and high-level alarms plus two black-water systems, test each pump and holding-tank path for operation. A survey should still confirm the shaft-drive seals and the helm-led line runs for chafe.
Availability and Buyer's Takeaway
The typical market for used Voyage 510s is South Africa. For a buyer, the practical checklist is brief: confirm the layout variant and ex-charter history; survey the epoxy hull coating and tabbed bulkheads; exercise all four bilge pumps and both black-water systems; and verify the windlass, chain, and anchor gear match the factory spec. A well-kept example offers large-catamaran volume with short-handed sail control and serious tankage for passage work.
