Designed for the style conscious, couples-family-and-friends luxury cruising sector, the 17-metre Contest 55CS combines Contest’s long-standing reputation as top of the line bluewater performance builder with today's increasingly time limited lifestyle.

With the Contest 55CS, Contest has gone to new lengths to show how aesthetics and practicality can work in harmony, whether someone’s circumnavigating the globe, resting at anchor or plugged into marina life. The Contest 55CS is constructed to the same exacting standards as applied to the rest of Contest's incredible range, carrying her Lloyds A1 build certification with pride. Her design marries the very best in modern boat-building techniques with timeless elegance, quality materials and luxury ergonomics. The result is a modern performance bluewater cruiser with exceptional seakeeping abilities and unrivalled build quality.

In essence, the Contest 55CS is a safe, comfortable, speedy and easy to run yacht with space and systems both above and below decks for enjoying life on the water to the full.
