The Palm Beach 55 is set to turn heads at the upcoming Auckland Boat Show, giving visitors a rare chance to step aboard one of the most celebrated luxury motor yachts on the world stage.
From the moment it was launched, the Palm Beach 55 surpassed expectations, drawing global acclaim for its elegant lines, advanced construction, and outstanding on-water performance. The design sits at the intersection of timeless aesthetics and contemporary engineering, and the model has firmly established itself as a modern classic.
Buyers can choose between Sedan and Flybridge configurations, with layouts offering either two or three staterooms. Both variants are conceived with extended coastal cruising and onboard entertaining in mind, delivering spacious accommodation, high-quality finishes, and a thoughtful approach to spatial planning.
Measuring 19.1 metres overall with a beam of 5.23 metres, the Palm Beach 55 balances interior volume with genuine efficiency on the water. At a displacement of 24,200 kilograms, she carries 2,600 litres of fuel and 800 litres of fresh water, giving her the range and self-sufficiency suited to serious coastal passage-making.
Performance figures are equally impressive. The standard specification pairs twin Volvo IPS 950S engines, each rated at 725 horsepower, delivering a top speed of 34 knots and a cruising speed of 28 knots. Those seeking more performance can opt for twin Volvo IPS 1200S units, pushing output to 900 horsepower per side, a top speed of up to 40 knots, and a cruising range of 493 nautical miles at 21 knots, with fuel consumption of just 30 gallons per hour at that speed. A twin Volvo D11 shaft drive option rounds out the powertrain choices.
Throughout the show, factory-direct representatives with in-depth product knowledge will be on hand to guide guests through the Palm Beach 55 in detail, covering everything from design choices and performance characteristics to the full scope of customisation available. Private tours can be booked during the show.
