Sailboat : classic sailing-yacht
FRIENDSHIP 53
Friendship Yacht Company
- 16.1m 
52' 10"ft
Keeping with the classic look of the 40, the satin and gloss varnished, raised-panel teak joinery with painted v-groove hull ceilings is timeless. The interior of the boat hosts a double cabin aft, with an ensuite head to port. Forward is a master cabin with a large, centerline berth, an ensuite head and separate shower. At the base of the stairs, a full galley is to starboard, which leads to the open, surprisingly spacious main salon with two large facing settees, including one that is convertible to a navigation table. There is also a flat screen TV that retracts down into the back of the centerline settee. Two optional interior arrangements have also been drawn for those who are interested in a three-cabin layout.
Highlights onboard the Friendship 53 include a technologically advanced sail handling system to keep sailing at an easy pace. The 100% genoa is electric furling, with sheets led right to the electric winches at either side of the helm. Conlrolled by two buttons al the helmsman's feet, the in-boom furling main is simple to handle. There is also a GPS system with a screen plotter in the cockpit table and a radar plotter with display in the nav. station.
Whether it is luxury sailing for the afternoon or coastal cruising, she will turn heads just as the Friendship 40 does, but in more distant deslinations.
