Comar Sailboats for Sale

Comar

Italian yard with a long pedigree

Comar is one of the historic names in Italian yacht building. According to the yard's own history, the company started out in Forlì in 1961 under the name Sipla and was one of the early Italian pioneers of GRP boatbuilding. Today Comar is based in Fiumicino near Rome and continues the brand as a manufacturer of sailing yachts and catamarans.

Comet: the classic signature

For many years, Comar was best known for its Comet yachts. The yard still carries this line on today, including deck saloon models such as the C52 RS, C62 RS, C85 RS and C100 RS. These boats in particular stand for the "tipico mix italiano" of elegant lines, performance and semi-custom ambition that the Comar name carried for so long.

C-Cat: the second, younger identity

In recent years, Comar has become visible primarily through its C-Cat catamarans. The official model page currently lists the C-Cat 38, 48, 56 and 65; in 2025 the C-Cat 65 was presented as the new flagship and launched in August 2025. Trade magazines rate the C-Cat 37/38 and the C-Cat 48 in particular as sporty cruising catamarans that bring sailing fun and liveaboard comfort together quite convincingly.

Technically interesting: composite construction taken seriously

What gives Comar its technical profile today can be seen in the C-Cat line. For its catamarans, the yard cites modern composite construction methods such as Corecell sandwich, epoxy – more precisely epoxy vinylester resins – and vacuum infusion; on the C-Cat 65 there is also carbon fiber, carbon structures and components designed using finite element analysis. The clear aim is a good weight-to-stiffness ratio – in other words, boats that are light, responsive and structurally sound.

Performance, but not at the expense of comfort

The C-Cats in particular can sail in sporty fashion without ruining everyday life on board. Multihulls World described the C-Cat 48 as a sporty yet highly liveable catamaran. The 38 was rated "as light, modern and capable in a wide range of wind conditions". Details such as daggerboards, a carbon bowsprit and the generally slim, performance-oriented geometry of the boats fit right in.

Safety and structural aspects

On the C-Cat 48, Comar also underlines its performance ambition in structural and safety-related terms. The yard cites several watertight sections with generous volume and a structure drawn up with the help of FEA, with a high carbon content. This shows quite clearly that the focus here is not only on speed, but equally on structural safety and reserves.

Models:

At its core, Comar today stands for two worlds: the Comet monohulls and the C-Cat catamarans. Anyone looking for a classic Italian performance cruiser will tend to stick with the Comet monohulls; anyone who prefers the lighter, sportier multihull route ends up with the C-Cats. It is precisely this range that makes the brand remarkable.
So Comar is not a yard for sailors who merely count square meters in the saloon. The name stands instead for boats with a bit of temperament and a clear design idea – in the past mainly on Comet yachts, today visibly on the C catamarans as well. To put it another way: Italian yacht building with sporting ambitions and plenty of well thought-out engineering.
