Heesen Yachts: New Ownership and Exciting Launches for 2025

Discover the Maritimo M50: Your Next Adventure Awaits

Update The Maritimo M50: A Blend of Innovation and Functionality The new Maritimo M50, from the renowned Australian boatbuilder, signifies a notable advancement in the world of yachting. This latest model isn't just another yacht; it's a purpose-built vessel tailored for owner-operators who seek both performance and comfort on the open seas. Designed for both confident offshore capabilities and hands-on control, the M50 is engineered with the intent to support efficient cruising across various sea conditions. Designed with Passion for Performance One of the standout characteristics of the Maritimo M50 is its emphasis on performance backed by a solid racing heritage. As Keith Teynor, Managing Director of the Americas for Maritimo, stated, the M50 addresses the needs of diverse U.S. buyers, from the Pacific Northwest to the east coast. The dive into a full-beam master stateroom that offers expansive space would make any boating experience feel luxurious, just as it would on larger yachts. Coupled with large hullside windows, the interior feels bright and airy, bringing in natural light that invigorates the space. Innovative Enclosed Flybridge for All-Weather Adventures The enclosed flybridge of the M50 is undoubtedly central to its appeal. Imagine having 360-degree visibility while navigating through challenging weather, all the while enjoying climate-controlled comfort. This is particularly important for extended cruising excursions when conditions change rapidly. The twin helm seats and the ergonomically arranged console not only highlight Maritimo's dedication to user-friendly design but also ensure that passengers can relax while enjoying the views, making every trip memorable. Functional Layout for Seamless Entertaining The M50’s main deck features a smartly arranged layout where the cockpit, galley, and salon flow together, making entertaining guests a breeze. Maritimo has thoughtfully positioned the galley to serve both indoor dining experiences and outdoor enjoyment. This connectivity enhances the onboard experience, allowing guests to mingle seamlessly, whether they’re inside or out enjoying the sun. A fold-down swim platform also maximizes usability, perfect for refreshing dips or docking. Sustainability Meets Efficiency In an increasing world where sustainability is critical, the Maritimo M50 stands out with its fuel efficiency. Equipped with twin Volvo Penta D13-800 diesels driving straight shafts, this yacht reaches cruising speeds of approximately 24 knots and hits a top speed around 30 knots. With a generous fuel capacity of 980 gallons, boat owners can embark on long trips with peace of mind, knowing they have the capability for extended journeys while minimizing their environmental footprint. Future Outlook and Community Impact The North American debut of the Maritimo M50 at the Palm Beach International Boat Show offers an excellent opportunity for enthusiasts to experience this vessel firsthand. With its innovative features, efficient design, and luxurious comfort, it encapsulates everything modern boaters aspire toward. As the boating community continues to grow, models like the M50 symbolize a shift towards performance without compromising sustainability. This aligns perfectly with the values of adventure and community that resonate deeply with today’s boating audience. As the interest in eco-friendly and efficient vessels expands, the Maritimo M50 may very well set the new standard for what boaters can expect in terms of quality, performance, and design. Make sure to witness the Maritimo M50 at its official showcase from March 25–29, 2026, and delve into everything this remarkable yacht has to offer.
