1989 Ocean Yachts 55 Super Sport

Step aboard and you’ll notice how much natural light the 55 Super Sport lets in, even with the tint keeping things cool. The wide beam gives the salon and galley a real “apartment afloat” feel, with room to stretch out, entertain, and still move around easily when the action starts in the cockpit. That cockpit has the space and freeboard you want for serious trolling or setting up a couple of deck chairs at sunset. Up top, the enclosed bridge keeps the breeze and spray manageable while still offering a commanding view. Generous tankage and stowage make longer weekends practical, not just possible.

In these waters, conditions can flip from glassy to sloppy in a hurry, and the 55 Super Sport’s hull was built with exactly that in mind. The sharp entry and broad aft sections help her track steadily through steep chop, while the weight and flare keep spray down and the ride composed. Ample range lets you run offshore to the grounds without nervously eyeing the fuel gauges. When weather keeps you closer to home, the comfortable interior layout turns lay days into relaxed onboard time. Between the capable sea manners and the home-like accommodations, this model suits both the local run-and-gun fishery and longer cruising hops.
