Tayana 55

Centercockpit cruiser built in 1992

Sturdy, safe and seaworthy centre cockpit yacht with classic lines from the drawing board of Dutch designer Peter Beeldsnijder. The Tayana and Vancouver sailing yachts were very successful models built by the Taiwanese shipyard Ta-Yang Yacht Building Co. during the 1980s until the mid-1990s. Safe but spacious centre cockpit and plenty of living space on deck on wide running decks, the open flush deck in front of the mast and the large sundeck aft. Traditional teak interior with many beautiful details. A particular blue water feature of the Tayana 55's interior is the spacious engine room with a veritable workshop, including workbench and tool lockers, with easy access through a door from the main saloon.

This Tayana 55 has the interior layout with a large, luxurious owner's cabin aft across the entire beam of the yacht, including an en suite owner's heads compartment with separate shower. Two further cabins forward of the saloon. This owner's yacht has had continuous maintenance by professional service. The Tayana 55 has electric stainless steel davits at the stern and a GRAND 3,40 m RIB with centre console and SUZUKI outboard 30 hp (both new in 2018). Complete specification incl. diesel generator, bow thruster, 230 V/4 KW power generation system on the main engine, washing machine, dishwasher etc. Lying: Monfalcone/Italy (near Trieste) on the northern Adriatic.
