Beneteau Oceanis 55 Swallow draft large wing keel at 1.6mt

Silk Road - Speed meets spacious Luxury.

She is a fully refurbished 2014 Beneteau 55 Oceanis - Silver Edition - designed to go anywhere in self-sufficient comfort and safety.

Eminently suitable for extended cruising or a live-aboard home - she is an elegant and contemporarily styled yacht, that has also performed well in recreational club events. Her energy systems are designed so that there is no need to use the genset or shore power unless wishing to utilise her efficient reverse cycle air conditioning systems.

She has three QS cabins and two heads with self-contained showers and new, quiet flush, freshwater, electric toilets. She has a spacious and extremely comfortable lounge living area, with a flexible couch layout allowing for a possible fourth double bed. Recently refurbished with Alancatara upholstery and a 40" Smart TV, she mimics the best of comfortable apartment living.
