Introduction

A catamaran designed to set sail

CRAZY DOG – OVERSEAS 52 No.14 (2024)

Among the Outremer 52 in circulation, CRAZY DOG is distinguished by the level of detail brought to its configuration. This boat has been built with special attention to life on board and the great journey.

Offered here by the official brokers of the Outremer shipyard, this boat is worth taking the time to discover.

The Outremer shipyard has been built for more than 40 years in La Grande Motte catamarans designed for the great voyage. Thanks to its collaborations, in particular with VPLP Design, the brand has been able to evolve without ever denying its DNA: more comfort, more contemporary lines, more modern fittings, while maintaining the lightness and marine sense that have made its reputation. Today, this maturity makes Outremer one of the essential references for those who are considering a real long-term start. Great sailors have not been mistaken: some have owned or still own an Outremer, like Mike Golding, two-time winner of the Vendée Globe, whose boat we have also sold.

Designed by VPLP, the 52 benefits directly from the experience accumulated on the 55. It takes up the spirit while finding a particularly successful balance between size, storage, volume and comfort, a compromise that makes it one of the most accomplished models in the range for those who want to sail far without giving up living space.

CHIEN FOU en est une illustration exemplaire. C'est une version propriétaire, avec trois cabines dont une en configuration MyFreeSpace (MFS), pensée pour un couple ou une famille en grand voyage. Son propriétaire, un marin expérimenté ayant déjà possédé plusieurs bateaux, a construit sa spécification avec un souci du détail rarement égalé, dans le seul objectif de rendre la vie à bord et la navigation les plus agréables possible. Le résultat est un bateau mûri, cohérent, prêt à partir.

Sur le plan de voilure, le génois bénéficie d'un montage 3D (identique au 5X), une option qui améliore sensiblement la manœuvrabilité et le réglage fin de la voile. Le bateau embarque également une véritable trinquette Incidence, et non une simple préparation, pour un jeu de voiles complet et polyvalent. Les cloisons carbone, offrent déjà une excellente base structurelle, complétée ici par un mât carbone fixe et un gréement dormant en Kevlar, une option rare sur un 52. Sur le pont, les winchs Performa équipent le bateau : des modèles peu courants, nettement plus puissants que les winchs habituellement montés en série, un choix qui change concrètement le confort de manœuvre au quotidien.

À l'intérieur, chaque équipement a été sélectionné avec la même exigence : dessalinisateur Aquabase, lave vaisselle grand format, lave linge sèche linge combiné, four combi Miele, groupe électrogène Fischer Panda, 2140 W de capacité solaire, chauffage diesel, compresseur de plongée et connexion Starlink. Rien n'a été choisi par défaut.

Peu naviguée, uniquement en Méditerranée, et suivie par un propriétaire aux bonnes compétences techniques, CHIEN FOU offre aujourd'hui une base exceptionnelle pour tout marin ou toute famille souhaitant partir en grand voyage, avec possibilité de reprise de leasing.

Acheter CHIEN FOU via les brokers officiels du chantier, c'est bénéficier d'une transparence totale sur son historique, d'un suivi technique privilégié avec le chantier, d'un réseau d'experts, de formations, de rallyes et de services qui prolongent l'expérience bien au delà de la simple transaction. Choisir Outremer, c'est aussi rejoindre l'écosystème Grand Large Yachting : rallyes transocéaniques, formations, préparation au grand voyage, refit et réseau mondial de propriétaires.

Our commitment

So why should you choose Grand Large Yachting?

Buying or selling a used Outremer catamaran means continuing a story that began at the shipyard. That’s why Outremer Brokerage exists — the service dedicated to the resale of used Outremers, run by the very same teams who have followed our owners since their boat was built. We’re not just another intermediary: we are the shipyard’s official brokers.
This closeness changes everything. We know each boat, its history and its maintenance, often since the day it was delivered. This trusted relationship, built over time with our owners, is our greatest strength — and it benefits sellers and buyers alike.
We believe that a well-sold boat is a well-described boat. Every catamaran offered for sale undergoes a rigorous technical inspection, carried out by teams who know the Outremer inside out — structure, rigging, systems. Buyers and sellers thus have access to reliable, honest information, the foundation of a smooth transaction.
Our team combines in-depth hands-on experience with sharp knowledge of the pre-owned Outremer market, staying in constant contact with the naval architects, production, and after-sales service at the shipyard. No one else has this expertise.
Buying or selling a catamaran is about far more than an online listing. We handle the entire journey — valuation, technical survey, marketing, viewings, negotiation — followed by the full administrative and legal process: sales agreement, VAT, financing. One single point of contact, from the first day to the last.
Every Outremer carries an adventure within it. Our mission is to pass it on to the next owner, so the story goes on — and so the brand keeps moving forward too.
Buying an Outremer is often the project of a lifetime. Our role is to support you with rigor, transparency and passion at every step — from the first viewing to the handover.
