I like the way the bow rails flare out on that 50, gives the illusion of a Hatteras or Carolina style bow. What was your headroom under the fly-bridge hard top? And to be honest, I'd prefer that hatch on the hard top, it would give access if you needed to work on the radar or sat gear without having to worry about walking on a huge panel of glass!

Can’t quite put my finger on it, but I’m not mad on it. Just seems clunky somehow. Assume it is much cheaper than the Princess or Sunseeker equivalents - because they are much better. I also prefer the Galeon 500 Fly with its droppable side decks.

@@blewyd I know what you mean bur you really have to go some to beat the Galeon 500 fly for space and fittings at its price point, although even though it is relatively inexpensive it is still almost double the price of this Absolute. If this price is correct it seems a very good price for a half decent 50ft fly.

It`s all a bit compromised compared to a Sunseeker or Princess of the same size. Not enough pizazz or style for me. Not a bad face lift though. Nice walkthrough.

I don't know if it's because of the much larger engines (not to mention two of them), and therefore a much larger engine bay, but for some reason this 55 foot motor yacht feels smaller than a 55 foot sailing yacht that would probably look rather small sitting next to it.

Many people use crew cabins for extra guests, or maybe the unruly teenager in the family! some people may choose to hire their boat out when not using it, always good to have somewhere separate to put a part-time skipper and steward (more than likely husband and wife).
