GENERAL

The design concept for the Farr 50 Pilothouse series was for a fast and comfortable bluewater cruiser that could be handled by two people from either the cockpit or navigation station in the pilothouse. The cockpit is spacious and well protected, with all sail controls easily reached from the helm. The aft decks are wide with built-in seats, generous storage lockers, built-in swim platform and watertight bulkheads forward and aft. Another unique and very desirable feature is the raised pilothouse/main salon area that provides a raised seating area with panoramic views all around and the ability to pilot the yacht from down below with full visibility. 

ACCOMMODATIONS

CALADAN sleeps six in three private cabins with two heads and two shower stalls. Interior joiner work is all satin varnished African mahogany with locking teak and holly soles, flush door hardware and customized vents for locker spaces. Large pilothouse windows, opening hatches and hull portholes provide great light and ventilation. There are Oceanair screens/sunshades and ventilation fans throughout the interior, and all interior lights are on dimmers. 

Pilothouse/Salon 

The main companionway is only three steps down from the cockpit and offers a safe entrance into the pilothouse/salon area. The area is designed to provide a good all-around view while standing, and the raised 'U- shaped’ dining/seating area to starboard offers unmatched views when seated. The large mahogany dining table accommodates six very comfortably and features bottle storage locker below. There are two opening deck hatches and two large opening portholes to cockpit. 

The navigation station is to port, with chart table and adjustable pedestal chair. There are electrical panels, full instrumentation and engine controls to allow piloting from below deck. Aft of the nav station is a locker that holds a pop-up flatscreen TV. Grab rails are well positioned around the entire area. Access to the main engine, generator and mechanical equipment is under the salon sole, which easily lifts on gas struts. 

Galley 

The walk-through galley is located two steps down from the aft port end of the pilothouse. There are large cabinets with sliding doors and large storage lockers above the counters with drop-down fronts to provide more counter space, and several drawers and lockers below counters.

Owner Cabin 

Aft of the galley, the unique aft-facing centerline queen berth is ideal at sea, as the occupants are lying closer than usual to the yacht's center of gravity. There is generous stowage in this cabin, including two very large hanging lockers, and full-width locker storage across the aft end of the cabin with washer/dryer. An overhead hatch with screens and blinds and three opening ports into the cockpit offer excellent ventilation.  

The en-suite head with separate shower is to starboard with wash basin, Vacuflush toilet, shower unit with seat, mirror, towel rack, and good storage under the vanity. There is one opening port and exhaust fan for ventilation. The countertop and flooring are Corian. 

Starboard Guest Cabin 

To starboard and forward of the pilothouse is the smaller guest cabin, which features a large single berth and two large storage lockers and shelving. The berth location is ideal for sleeping while at sea, with an additional pipe berth available when needed. Opposite to port of the passageway are two large storage lockers ideal for long term cruising.   

Forward Guest Cabin 

The forward guest cabin has a centerline queen berth, shelves and storage outboard. There is a hanging locker, a small desk with seat, opening ports each side, and a large opening overhead hatch. There is a large en-suite head with both forward and starboard cabin entry doors and a shower compartment, all nicely appointed with Corian countertops, molded sink, Vacuflush toilet and white laminated walls.
