Alexander Marine are proud to present this 2017 Maritimo S59 to the market as worldwide central agents. 'Arwen' is presented in immaculate condition having been lightly used and professionally maintained by her one owner. New boat buyers are encouraged to consider this turn key vessel available for immediate delivery. The Maritimo S59 model is a 'beamy' single level, three cabin, two bathroom vessel with broad appeal. The S59 fits a niche market where boaties either have bridges to navigate to reach their home berths, or who prefer the functionality, ease of ownership and social benefits of single level boating. No more flybridge clears to keep clean! The S59 features a full beam midship master cabin, which is a hallmark of the Maritimo range, a VIP cabin with an island double bed and a third bunk cabin. Her walk around decks make access around the boat easy, as does the convenient helm door for the skipper when docking. In addition to the noticeable beam of 'Arwen', she also features a large electrically opening lazerette similar to that provided on the larger M64 cruising motor yacht and also the M51. This huge storage space is perfect for all the water toys you could want, and for additional stowage generally. The Seakeeper Gyro stabilizer is installed in this area for stability underway and at rest. The cockpit is accessed from both sides with openings to the upgraded hi/lo hydraulic swim platform. Other notable equipment items onboard 'Arwen' include Satellite TV, Idromar watermaker, Miele galley applicances, Zodiac liferaft, saloon sunroof and her AB RIB. Maritimo's race proven shaft drive technology reduces fuel consumption and gives the peace of mind of lower maintenance costs and increased longevity of ownership. Like its two level sibling the S59 has all the attributes of the Maritimo brand and will be equally at home cruising Sydney Harbour, Moreton Bay, the Great Loop in the US and other great waterways of the world.

Little could the Victorian and Edwardian owners of six beautiful 52 feet identical gaff cutter cruiser-racers, and their young designer Alfred Mylne, imagine that more than 125 years later one of them would still be doing exactly what they'd conceived. Believed the last remaining ‘Clyde 20-Ton One Design', TIGRIS has been lucky to be almost constantly and extensively raced and cruised throughout her long life. And many of her owners gave back, and continue to do so to ensure that this beautiful, still very practical, fast, and superbly authentic, high provenance yacht continues to give pleasure and gain admirers. https://www.sandemanyachtcompany.co.uk/yacht/752/TIGRIS A relatively recent open heart surgery refit in current ownership by Chantier du Guip concentrated on the vitally important structural elements down below, where she is effectively only a decade old.
