She is ready to sail away now, “Tempus” offers the total package for liveaboard and extended ocean passage-making with interior accommodations and covered aft deck comparable to larger cats. Her Van de Stadt design remains highly regarded for its stability, performance, comfort, and ocean friendly hulls. The 2014 adaptation is CE certified and is attractive, spacious, and versatile. Her fuller hulls reduce bow movement and flatten the seas, minimizing ocean contact with the bridge deck. The hull design also provides reduced draft, and an ability to carry more without affecting performance.

The external fishing, diving, BBQ, and recreational storage area is also unique, and it assists in keeping the wet and dirty activities outside while the spacious cockpit area offers the guests a superb entertainment area and the helmsman good and protected all round visibility. More power, water, sail, space, and storage enable one to travel further, anchor over your favourite fishing or dive areas for longer and offers greater versatility – they can operate successfully as charter vessels too. Besides her attractive looks, the Majestic 530 is a pleasure to handle. Steering is effortless and trimming the sails requires a simple press of the button to activate self-tailing winches.
