Callisto is wonderful example of the Outbound 46, which has been described as the perfect cruising boat. Not only is she built with serious sailing in mind, she is also easy to handle for a short-handed crew. A fun boat to sail whether it is around the bay or around the world.
Callisto is a single owner boat has spent the last 14 winters in the Caribbean lying in Grenada at the conclusion of season. The owners have had quite the adventures and cherished memories during their ownership, and are ready to pass on Callisto so she can continue to provide these experiences for the next owner!

The hull of the Outbound 46 is designed and engineered for serious offshore cruising. Each yacht is individually constructed of 100% hand laid solid fiberglass laminate... still the preferred choice with a massive system of stringers, longitudinals and bulkheads that are carefully bonded directly to the hull while it is still in the mold. Laminates are increased in high stress areas and in the bow and bilge for added strength. Bi-axial fiberglass cloth adds to the overall impact resistance, outer layers of vinylester resin will protect against osmosis and Ashland MaxGuard premium grade ISO-NPG gelcoat will maintain the yacht's beauty for years to come. To eliminate keel bolts and for maximum strength, the hull and keel are molded as a single lamination. After the deck is through-bolted and sealed to the hull with 3M 5200 polyurethane sealant, the bulkheads are fiberglassed on their entire perimeter, not just screwed in place. All furniture is then carefully bonded to the hull, adding to the structural support system.
The deck is Baltek cored and vacuum bagged with the core materials removed and replaced with solid fiberglass with stainless steel backing plates and easy access removable overhead panels at all deck hardware locations. Pushpit and pulpit are 1 1/2" diameter stainless steel connected by double lifelines with gates port and starboard. Solid handrails extend from the pushpit to the midships gates to assist cockpit exit and entry. There are stainless steel grab rails along the coach top, a custom stainless steel double anchor roller, and six stainless steel 12" mooring cleats. There are ten opening ports and eight Lewmar hatches. Four dorades with chrome cowls, inside closures and line guards keep the air circulating in inclement weather when ports and hatches are battened down.
The cockpit is a safe and comfortable place whether driving the boat in a gale or resting in a quiet anchorage. The long seats provide plenty of room for entertaining, sleeping outside while partner is on watch or sunbathing. Most importantly, the cockpit is deep and narrow with seat back ergonomically designed for maximum comfort. For safety and comfort he Outbound 46 was designed to make moving about the cockpit and cabin as easy and safe as possible. A three-step companionway allows you to use the whole boat without having to plan a major voyage down a steep and unsafe ladder. Forward of the companionway way is a molded sea hood with integral instrument box and large coaming for dodger attachment. A walk-through transom with boarding platform and fold down swim ladder makes returning to the boat after a refreshing swim easy.
The Outbound 46 is known for its' thoughtful and functional design. There is dedicated storage for sails, fenders, lines, ground tackle, dive gear, dinghy, outboard, tools, spares, ship's stores, playtoys and most important, room for you and all of your personal items. There are comfortable berths through-out.
Starting in the cockpit, you will find generous locker storage to include a dual 20# bottle propane locker. Access to the swim platform is directly aft of the helm, via a bishop folding helm seat. There is a hot / cold water shower on the platform. The cockpit seats are long and wide enough to enjoy some quiet time or a nap. Via the port seat, you find direct access to the large workshop and mechanical systems locker / room.
When going below, you will be pleasantly surprised to find there are three (only three) wide steps that provide safe and secure access to the cabin area below. Immediately to starboard of the companionway is the Nav Station. To port of the Nav Station is a wonderful Galley that is comfortable to work in at anchor or underway. There are great views of the anchorage to be enjoyed from the large galley and salon port lights.
To starboard, you will find a generous quarter cabin. Forward of the head and galley is the salon with comfortable seating that converts to two of the best single sea-berths you will find. The salon table folds for easy access to the bin storage storage outboard. The salon table can also be lowered to create a queen-size sleeping area.
Moving forward is the master cabin with its' own in-suite head with separate stall shower. There is a huge storage area under the Pullman berth and there are numerous lockers and chests. Given the position of the Pullman berth (much further aft than your conventional V-berth), you will find this berth comfortable at anchor or underway. Immediately forward of the forward head is a water-tight bulkhead and a huge sail locker that is accessible from the bow deck hatch.
The interior fit and finish of this vessel is incredible.
The master stateroom is located forward of the main salon through a locking privacy door. Callisto features a Pullman layout with a queen-sized berth to port with lockers along the hull above the berth. There is plenty of room for gear/personal items in the large dresser of hanging lockers and drawers to starboard as well as the large storage compartment under the mattress and the four drawers below the berth.
The main salon is aft of the master stateroom. The semi-raised salon provides excellent natural lighting. There is a large U-shaped dinette to port with a drop leaf table, and a straight settee to starboard. The table lowers to transform the dinette into a double berth. The mid-section of the back rest of the starboard settee drops down to become a small table - great for a game of cards or a place for drinks! Book shelves with adjacent lockers are above both settees. The straight settee converts to a comfortable sea berth when underway. the cushions are covered in jade green ultra-suede.
The U-shaped galley is located to port and includes polished Corian counters, forward facing Scandvik double stainless steel sink with Scandvik faucets and a Force Ten three burner propane stove with oven and broiler. Jabsco fresh and raw water foot pumps augment the pressure hot and cold water system. There are two access hatches to the large top opening fridge below the counter just forward of the stove cooled by Frigoboat 12V systems. There is plenty of space for storage of ship's stores, dishes, cutlery, and pots and pans. While at first glance the galley will easily meet the needs of the most discerning chef, the space also meets the "safety at sea" requirement that is part and parcel of each Outbound yacht. When tucked into the U-section of the galley, one is not only secure, but also out of the way of anything that might be launched from the stove top.
The navigation station is situated adjacent to the companionway, the navigator will be in close proximity to those on watch allowing for clear communication with the helmsman. The top opening chart table easily accommodates all necessary navigational equipment. A Garmin chart plotter display is mounted in the cabinet above the table.
The guest stateroom is aft of the nav station and is comprised of a comfortable double berth. Louvered lockers are above and outboard of the berth with additional storage in cabinets along the aft bulkhead. there is a large hanging locker and book shelves as well as two drawers below the berth. Two ports open into the cockpit, providing excellent ventilation.
A dedicated shop and mechanical room is accessed via the aft head. The cockpit lazarette opens into this mechanical space, providing standing headroom at a workbench that runs along the port side when the hatch is open. There are drawers for tools and spares onboard. There is also excellent access to the propeller shaft seal in this well-conceived space. Further aft, the steering quadrant can be easily accessed through a hatch in the aft bulkhead. While there is plenty of room for all the gear necessary for long term cruising, there is also space available to service these systems in conditions better than most stand up engine rooms.
