Cabo Rico Yachts Cabo Rico 56 - Cruising Sailboat

2009 Cabo Rico Yachts Cabo Rico 56 Description

Cabo Rico’s new flagship yacht is spectacular. The new 56’ sailing yacht is the largest yacht in this range of ultimate bluewater cruisers. Designed by Chuck Paine, her naval architecture is similar in most respects to the award winning Cabo Rico 42, including a very innovative, safe and strong fuller keel design unique to Cabo Rico. The motion of the hull at sea is exceptionally comfortable, even at top speeds. Designed with more displacement than the average boat, with both a powerful engine and a powerful sailplan, the character of this yacht can reasonably be compared with a Mercedes Benz or Rolls Royce rather than being likened to the common automobile. "This new yacht retains all of the comfort and safety characteristics of her WIB Crealock designed sisters, with a “New England” styled hull and innovative reduced wetted surface keel design. It may take a touch longer to get her up to speed, but once there, she will blow by most anything her size with her passengers riding in style and safety. She is genuinely fun to sail and a delight to helm." -Chuck Paine
