Overview
The Enksail Orion is a Dutch-built custom aluminium sailing yacht range combining cruising comfort with sporty performance. Available in two sizes (Orion 49 and Orion 54), the design by Kees van de Stadt (Satellite Yacht Design) features a straight bow and an all-aluminium hull delivered as bare aluminium as standard. An optional centreboard keel provides a variable draft for access to shallow waters.

Performance
The Orion series uses a relatively low-displacement, sporty hull form to deliver efficient sailing with moderate crew effort. Aluminium construction and the optional centreboard keel enhance versatility, allowing good seaworthiness and adaptability to different cruising areas.
