Design Review

Soubise Freydis 46 (Andanza A Serious Catamaran)

Naval Architect: Erik Lerouge
Builder: Soubise Plaisance

Built by Soubise Plaisance this semi-custom catamaran uses Airex foam sandwich construction, the yacht achieves an impressive strength-to-weight ratio. Reinforcement in high-impact areas, including Kevlar in the hull bottoms and dual crash boxes in each bow demonstrates a serious offshore brief. This is not a lightly built coastal cruiser, but a bluewater catamaran engineered with appropriate safety margins for extended ocean passages.

Under sail, the Freydis 46 delivers performance that sets it apart from heavier production cruising catamarans. The rotating wing mast improves aerodynamic efficiency, allowing the vessel to point to approximately 30 degrees apparent wind angle and tack through roughly 90 degrees true. Off the wind, speeds of 13 to 15 knots in 25 knots of true wind are achievable. This performance reflects the synergy between moderate displacement, fine hull entries, and an efficient rig. Importantly, speed does not come at the expense of balance or control. The sail plan is powerful without being extreme, and the boat is reported to remain predictable and manageable when sailed short-handed or even single-handed, a hallmark of Lerouge’s practical design approach.

The hulls are relatively slender with controlled wetted surface, reducing drag and promoting a smooth motion through chop. Windage has been carefully managed despite the generous beam typical of cruising catamarans. The coach roof and superstructure remain proportionate rather than overly voluminous, preserving sailing efficiency while still delivering interior comfort. This thoughtful balance positions the Freydis 46 between heavier, charter-oriented platforms and ultra-light performance cats.

Overall, the Soubise Freydis 46 stands as a well-executed example of Erik Lerouge’s commitment to building multihulls that are fast, structurally sound, and genuinely offshore capable. It is neither a floating condominium nor a stripped-out racing machine, but a carefully engineered performance cruising catamaran designed to reward the engaged sailor while providing the safety and comfort required for serious ocean voyaging.

Broker Comments

The Freydis 46 is widely regarded as one of the most capable bluewater cruising catamarans in her size range, and this example represents an opportunity to own a true offshore-designed multihull with a proven pedigree. Designed by Erik Lerouge, whose work emphasizes safety, structural integrity, and seaworthiness, the Freydis stands apart from lighter production cats with her robust construction and conservative, confidence-inspiring design.

Her practical layout, dedicated owner’s hull, reliable Lambardini engines, and substantial electrical system with solar support make her well suited for long-range cruising, liveaboard use, or extended time off the grid. This is a vessel built for sailors who value capability and safety over dockside flash.
