The Voyage 580 represents a pinnacle of the South African "performancecruiser" ethos, blending the robust construction required for the Southern Ocean with the refined amenities demanded by the luxury Caribbean charter trade. Launched as a flagship model to build upon the commercial success of the Voyage 500, the 580 was designed by Simonis Voogd Design to provide a significant increase in internal volume and waterline length without sacrificing the nimble handling characteristic of the brand. Built in Cape Town, the 580 utilizes a vacuumbagged sandwich construction with a choice of foam or balsa coring, ensuring a stiff, lightweight hull capable of maintaining high average speeds over long passages. Unlike many of its contemporaries that prioritize interior volume to the point of compromising bridge deck clearance, the 580 maintains a relatively high profile above the water, effectively reducing the "slamming" effect in heavy seas—a hallmark of Alexander Simonis’s design philosophy for Voyage Yachts.
