Ultimate Bluewater Cruiser
Two decades after the original Shipman 63 redefined the fast, owner-sailed bluewater cruiser, the new Elan SixtyFive takes that vision to the next level. Designed with insights from IMOCA and America’s Cup technology, it delivers exceptional speed, lightness, and safety without compromising comfort or simplicity. Every element — from hull geometry to autopilot control — is shaped by the pursuit of effortless, enjoyable long-distance sailing for a small crew. The SixtyFive bridges racing innovation and ocean-cruising practicality, making advanced performance beautifully accessible.
