1989 Tayana T55

The Tayana 55 designed by the Dutch Naval Architect Pieter Beeldsnijder, recognized throughout the world as premiere designer. To many experienced "real world" cruisers, the Tayana 55 Center Cockpit, was at its inception and continues to be the ultimate cruising yacht. It is apparent once aboard this vessel, that nothing is an "afterthought", it was designed and built for serious cruising.

The hull is one of the most durable, versatile, safest and best-performance hulls in its class. The clean flush deck forward provides delicious space for sail handling and even dinghy and life raft storage. The deck access storage both forward in the sail locker and in the huge aft full beam lazarette is unsurpassed. The wide (16'2") beam of T55 provides excellent form stability and is spacious with excellent storage throughout. Few yachts of this size have a full stand-up engine room with workbench and terrific access to its machinery. There is not a better value in a yacht of this class, of this size on the market.
