Kelsall — Kelsall 54
## COOL CHANGE — 16.55m Kelsall Catamaran New Zealand's cruising grounds reward yachts that can slip into shallow anchorages and stay there. COOL CHANGE, a 16.55m (54ft) sailing catamaran launched by Kelsall in 2005, is built for exactly that kind of itinerary — the sheltered bays, the empty coastline, the mornings where the only sound is the water against twin hulls. Kelsall's reputation was built on performance multihull design, and the platform shows it: light, efficient, comfortably driven under sail. She cruises at 7 knots and tops out at 12, a range that suits unhurried coastal passages rather than clock-watching deliveries. A refit completed in 2022 brought the yacht up to current standards for charter service. ### Life aboard The catamaran layout is the real argument here. Wide beam translates directly into deck space and stability at anchor — no heel, no fuss when guests move around, and a genuinely usable saloon and cockpit rather than a compromise between the two. She accommodates up to 10 guests. Your BellaYacht advisor will confirm the exact cabin configuration for your dates. ### Crew and service COOL CHANGE charters with a professional crew who know these waters — the kind of local knowledge that turns a week's itinerary from a list of places into a properly sequenced cruise, with the right anchorage for the right wind on the right day. ### Chartering COOL CHANGE A straightforward, well-sorted sailing catamaran for New Zealand cruising, with the deck space and steadiness that only a multihull delivers.
