Overview

2011 Privilege 495 ?EVOLUTION? ? $500K+ Refit | Owner?s Version | Bahamas-Ready, Off-Grid Catamaran

Evolution?is a rare opportunity to acquire a?properly refit turnkey Privilege 495, one of the most respected performance cruising catamarans ever built. Purchased in 2021 for?$605,000, her current owner has since invested?over $600,000?modernizing systems, power generation, interior spaces, and mechanical access with a singular goal:?extended, self-sufficient cruising away from the dock.

Offered now at?$749,000, well below total investment,?Evolution?represents immediate value for the experienced sailor seeking a shallow-draft, owner?s version catamaran capable of remaining at anchor for weeks at a time in destinations like the Bahamas and Caribbean out-islands. This vessel is ready to leave the dock and go cruising in style!
