Fleming 55
Fleming Yachts is exhibiting for the first time at Sanctuary Cove with the release of a brand new Fleming 55.
The company is showcasing the Fleming 55, a well-proven raised pilothouse motoryacht designed for serious cruising.
The vessel’s semi-displacement hull gives great flexibility in performance. The Fleming 55 has a range of 2000nm at 8 knots, yet, with standard twin Cummins QSC 500hp common rail engines the model can attain a top speed of around 20 knots.
Maximum sustained cruising speed is around 17 knots where a moderate deadrise provides a comfortable ride. The Fleming’s deep keel provides protection for running gear and stability in following seas.
As noise and vibration contribute to fatigue, Fleming Yachts has paid attention to producing a vessel which offers a whisper quiet and smooth ride. The Fleming 55 was first introduced in 1986 with hundreds of improvements over the following two decades.
In 2008, the hull number 200 was launched, making it one of the most successful production yachts in history. Fleming Yachts are built at the Tung Hwa boat yard in southern Taiwan and are marketed exclusively through Fleming Yachts Inc located in California with a network of authorized dealers.
