Waterline 55

We will save you time, money and mistakes on your next boat.

Waterline 55

Sheer elegance is the best way to describe the Waterline 55. The exquisitely styled three cabin layout is light and spacious.

The 55 is a perfect boat for a family to live aboard and explore the oceans of the world. With a comfortable 225 mile a day pace, passage making can be swift and exhilarating. Utilization of in-boom furling for the main and single-line control for the staysail make handling the 55 in rough water uncomplicated. Tacking is as simple as turning a wheel.

Ultimate strength and elegance combine to make the Waterline 55 a perfect family world voyager.
