2019 Seven Seas Yachts Hermes Speedster

Slide into the harbor with the kind of presence that makes people stop mid-conversation. The Hermes Speedster takes its cues from classic 1950s sports cars, but underneath that retro sheerline is a thoroughly modern hull that rides soft, dry, and reassuringly stable. The low seating position wraps driver and guests into a cozy cockpit, while the sweeping windshield knocks down wind without killing the thrill. Fine stitching, polished hardware, and a surprisingly hushed engine note make every run feel a bit like a private tour. It’s the kind of dayboat that turns a simple sunset cruise into an event, even before you open the throttle.

This Hermes Speedster is tailor-made for the protected waters and short-hop adventures that define local boating here. Its shallow draft and nimble handling make it easy to tuck into quiet coves, glide through narrow channels, and nose right up to swim spots or dockside restaurants. The efficient hull rewards relaxed cruising as much as spirited runs between anchorages, all while sipping fuel. With plush seating and a secure, deep cockpit, guests stay comfortable when afternoon chop picks up. It’s compact enough for easier storage and trailering, yet stylish enough to feel at home among much larger yachts on the waterfront.
