1991 Privilege 39 Prestige | Sauvage

 Owner’s Version Layout | Upgraded Twin Yanmar Diesels | Comprehensive B&G Electronics Package | Substantial Off-Grid Power System | Updated Rigging and Sail Inventory

Sauvage is a distinctive 1991 Privilege 39 Prestige Owner’s Version, combining renowned French offshore cruising heritage with an extensive collection of modern upgrades. Designed by Eric LeFevre and built by the respected Jeantot Marine shipyard in France, she features robust fibreglass construction and a desirable three-cabin layout rarely found in this configuration. Currently lying in Fiji, Sauvage presents an appealing opportunity for buyers seeking a capable and well-equipped cruising catamaran for exploring the South Pacific and beyond.

One of Sauvage’s standout features is her rare factory Owner’s Version layout, featuring a spacious walkthrough master cabin, two additional cabins and two bathrooms. With two queen berths and a single berth, she offers comfortable accommodation for owners and guests, while the practical port-hull galley features three Engel fridge/freezers, a Force 10 two-burner stove and oven, and generous storage for extended cruising.

Auxiliary propulsion is provided by twin Yanmar 3YM30 30hp diesel engines, installed in 2012 and 2017, with approximately 1,900 hours each and servicing completed in April 2026. Both engines are equipped with three-blade Max-Prop feathering propellers, providing efficient propulsion under power while reducing drag when sailing. Her shallow 1.07m draft further enhances cruising versatility, allowing access to sheltered anchorages and destinations beyond the reach of deeper-draft vessels.

Her sailing equipment has benefited from substantial investment, including 2019 compacted-strand standing rigging and a 2019–2020 sail inventory, featuring a furling gennaker for additional versatility in lighter conditions. The combination of a practical sail plan, proven catamaran design and updated rigging makes Sauvage an attractive platform for extended offshore adventures.

Navigation is supported by a comprehensive B&G electronics package, including 12-inch and 7-inch Vulcan chartplotters, Halo radar, NAC-3 autopilot, Class B AIS and wind instrumentation. A B&G V50 VHF with wireless handset and Iridium GO satellite communications provide additional capability for offshore passages and remote cruising grounds.

For independent life aboard, Sauvage is equipped with 1,135W of solar generation, separate 400Ah AGM battery banks for each hull and a Victron MultiPlus 2,000W inverter/charger. A Rainman watermaker, Honda EU2000i portable generator and 16,000 BTU Dometic air conditioning further enhance comfort and self-sufficiency, while generous fuel and freshwater capacities support extended time away from marinas.

Her cruising inventory includes a 25kg Rocna anchor with substantial chain and rode, Maxwell electric windlass, and Zodiac Cadet 300 aluminium RIB with Mariner 15hp outboard. Davits, cockpit enclosures, bimini, deck shower and barbecue provide practical convenience for life in tropical cruising grounds. Long-life Coppercoat antifouling was applied in October 2023, offering an additional benefit for owners planning continued adventures.

With her distinctive Owner’s Version accommodation, upgraded propulsion, modern navigation electronics and comprehensive cruising systems, Sauvage offers an appealing combination of classic Privilege craftsmanship and contemporary liveaboard practicality. For sailors seeking a well-equipped catamaran with genuine offshore pedigree, she represents an opportunity worth exploring.
