Fleming Yachts Fleming 55

The Fleming 55 is a well-proven raised pilothouse motoryacht designed for serious cruising. Her semi-displacement hull provides great flexibility in performance, with a range of 2,000 nautical miles at 8 knots and a top speed of approximately 18 knots. Typical sustained cruising speed is around 17 knots, and economical cruising speed is about 10 knots.

The yacht features a deep keel for stability and protection of running gear, and is known for its whisper-quiet, ultra-smooth ride thanks to Aquadrive anti-vibration systems. The Fleming 55 was first introduced in 1986 and has been continuously improved over the years while maintaining its legendary hull design and integrating modern technologies and materials.
