VQ55 Sports Line .

The VQ55 Sports Line is a sensational centre-console boat with a stepped hull. An outboard version with five Mercury V12 600 hp engines has been developed mainly for the US and Middle East markets. There’s also a European model of the VQ55 Sports Line available with twin 1200 hp V8 inboard diesels and waterjets, giving an appropriate top speed of 55 knots.

Regardless of your propulsion choices, every VQ55 Sports Line owner will enjoy the enhanced interior space, high level of comfort and a long range. With two spacious cabins below decks, four people can zoom off for the weekend or longer, with a smart on-deck galley complete with fridge, sink and wine cooler. Further additions are likely as we work on the first orders for this brand-new concept... Watch this space.

Some people see a Vanquish on the water and want one for themselves sooner rather than later. They don’t want to wait too long before taking delivery of their own aluminium VQ nor do they require personal changes to the exterior. The Vanquish vibe in terms of irreplaceable design and comfort are of course non-negotiable but when building in composite we can reduce the build time by about half while still giving good personal choices in areas such as interior upholstery and on-deck style.

Designer Guido de Groot and our engineers went to work on stretching the VQ40 to a VQ55, devising a sensational centre-console boat. Twin 1200 horsepower diesels with waterjets will have you riding the waves at 55+ plus knots and you’ll also be able to head into very shallow waters and beach up on the sand. Incidentally, waterjets are also known to be safest propulsion system for swimmers. The Vanquish developers are also creating a stepped hull outboard version which we are developing mainly for the US and Middle East markets. This will open up the potential for a Veloce model and with four or five Mercury V12 600hp outboard engines your speed will be over 70 knots! There’s no other lifestyle sports yacht of this size available that can go so fast.

Regardless of their propulsion choices, every VQ55 owner will enjoy the enhanced interior space compared to the VQ40 and an even higher level of comfort as well as a longer range. There will be two spacious cabins so that four people can zoom off for the weekend or longer, with a smart on-deck galley complete with fridge, sink and wine cooler. The response from the market to this latest innovation has been very pleasing and the first orders are in the book from clients looking to up the Vanquish ante in composite form. Production has already started on several models and the 2022 sailing season will open up in VQ55 style.
