As the latest addition to the Maritimo fleet, the 56 Cruising Motoryacht takes comfort and performance to a whole new level.

One could legitimately say that Maritimo’s Cruising Motoryachts defy comparison — at least in relationship to various enclosed-bridge sport-fishing yachts of similar size and shape. While war wagons from builders such as Bertram, Viking and Hatteras consider fishing prowess paramount, the Maritimo fleet places a far greater emphasis on comfort, versatility and efficient operation. With their slippery hulls, their secure, crewfriendly side decks, their raised, sheltered cockpits and airy interiors, these vessels are equally suited for entertaining aboard, long-range cruising, swim parties at anchor and, yes, even a bit of fishing.
