Sailboat : cruising sailing-yacht Contest
CONTEST 55CS

The option to safely and comfortably criss-cross the world's oceans with a small crew, benefiting at all times from superior sailing characteristics. This was the key concept behind the original design of the Contest 55CS by Doug Peterson. The 55CS is equally at home gliding elegantly through quiet waters as she is steering a robust course through heavy weather and high waves. And her speed will come as a surprise regardless of how much wind there is. While the yacht can easily be handled by a crew of two, she is spacious enough to carry up to eight people in comfort.

Built using the vacuum injection method, the yacht has a lighter, stronger and stiffer hull, which in turn guarantees excellent sailing parameters. The exceptional performance is further enhanced by the wing keel, which is fitted as standard. Both above and below decks, spaciousness, luxury and privacy are assured. And with a choice of three interior options, you can customise the yacht's layout and materials to your own requirements. Small wonder that the Contest 55CS is renowned as an ocean cruiser for the most discerning of sailors.
