Kraken 50 -- Bluewater Cruising, Uncompromising Build. Your next horizon is waiting.
The Kraken 50 is a semi-custom, bluewater cruising yacht built for sailors who demand strength, seaworthiness, and the confidence to go anywhere the wind takes them.
Engineered for crossing oceans with her Zero-keel(TM) construction -- a structurally integrated keel with no bolts to fail, designed for groundings and decades of hard sailing.
Looking Good II has a heavy-displacement hull that provides a smooth, stable motion offshore; the sea-kindly ride that lets you rest on passage. Built for true blue water sailing with a massively reinforced hull and deck that was hand-laid by craftsmen. Insulated interior for arctic or tropical cruising with tankage for true long-range independence, systems accessible and repairable at sea.
All of this combined with timeless design and modern performance.
The Kraken 50 balances tradition with efficiency: a powerful yet easily managed sail plan, protected centre cockpit, and a layout that puts everything within reach -- whether you're sailing shorthanded or with crew.
This isn't a boat for day-trips. It's a yacht for circumnavigating, liveaboard, and dreamers ready to make the leap.
