Like the St Francis 460, the St Francis 500 is the result of a close design collaboration between Anton Du Toit of Du Toit Yacht Design, Angelo Lavranos,
St Francis Catamarans, and valuable feedback from brokers and owners.

​

While the St Francis 500 shares the St Francis 460’s protected helm station, spacious interior, and renowned performance characteristics, it introduces several refinements, including a larger hardtop, extended transom area, integrated swimming platform, and enhanced keels.

​

Designed as a true liveaboard blue-water cruiser, the St Francis 500 can be easily sailed short-handed on long passages, offering exceptional comfort, safety, and reliability. The superior craftsmanship and attention to detail that define St Francis Marine are evident throughout.

​

Expansive saloon and galley windows provide outstanding panoramic views, while the large sliding door and window between the saloon/galley and cockpit seamlessly combine these spaces into a single, covered entertainment area. A swivelling TV screen ensures optimal viewing from anywhere in the space.

​
