Owner Experience Review

Owners and brokers consistently position the 55fromHYATTfor family coastal cruising and relaxed weekends aboard. Listings cite three cabins (sleeping about five) with two heads, plus a social aft deck and salon that work well for hosting. The upper helm/wheelhouse has large wraparound bench seating with A/C, while the aft deck’s couch can convert to a double and Eisenglass curtains help extend the usable season.

Underway, expectations are centered on comfort rather than speed. Brokered specs note a cruising speed around 12 knots, a robust fiberglass hull, and a steady, predictable ride at displacement speeds; it is not a high‑speed, planing‑style hull.

For longer coastal passages or live‑aboard use with a small crew, the boat’s systems and layout are frequently highlighted: a full galley with full‑size refrigerator, two‑burner stove, microwave, oven and ample storage; multiple A/C units; and utility gear including twin Caterpillar 3208 diesels, two generators (about 9 kW aft and 21 kW main), and a 20 gph watermaker. Maintenance notes in recent listings include an April 2023 haul‑out with new antifouling and cutlass bearings, a new Muir anchor winch (2020), new batteries (2022), and a bow thruster noted as needing repair; buyers are well‑advised to review service history for the gensets and watermaker.

Pros and Cons

  • Three cabins and two heads support family cruising and overnight guests.
  • Comfortable, steady ride around 12 knots with a robust fiberglass hull at displacement speeds.
  • Practical cruising amenities include a full galley, watermaker, multiple A/C units, and social aft/upper-helm layouts.
  • Not a high-speed hull, so passage planning revolves around displacement cruising.
  • Some listings note a bow thruster in need of repair that will require attention.
  • Buyers should verify service history for the two generators and 20 gph watermaker.
