Prout Escale 39 Cruising Catamaran
Over some 10-million miles logged with Prout cruising catamarans, there reportedly have been no hull failures or capsizes of any Prout catamaran, including the Escale 39.

Prout 45 Catamaran Review
The Prout 45 was probably the high water mark for the famous British catamaran manufacturer. It's a good looking, solid and seaworthy boat that remains popular today on the second hand market. Prout catamarans have probably completed more ocean crossings than any other brand, primarily with the Snowggose 37. The Prout 45 was introduced in the ...
Prout 45 Sailboat Review
The Prout 45 is comfortable and quick. Laying to her mooring, the Prout 45's sleek rounded hulls, tear-drop shapes astern and contoured bridge promise to handle seas with minimal slapping and jerking. Boarding stairways molded into each hull usher the cruiser to comfortable cockpit seats and table. Close by are large storage compartments ...
Prout 45 Ocean Ranger review
Pelican - Prout 45 Ocean Ranger hull number one under sail. Now lying in Bembridge refitted but lacking much in the way of interior fittings.

Prout 45S
Originally a British company, Prout catamarans are now built in China. The 45S is a good-looking boat, opulently fitted out and with some customizable interior options. There s more wood than we ve become accustomed to seeing in catamarans and the factory has done its best to keep weight down with extensive use of cored moldings. There are four staterooms, and a heads compartment in each hull.

10 Great Cruising Cats
Introduced in the mid-1990s, the Prout 45 followed the 50ft Quasar. Typical of British catamarans designs of the time, she had an innovative interior, with a saloon that stopped short of the forward bulkhead, thereby creating the necessary space for a small stateroom in the center of the boat.
