Contest Yachts Sailing Yachts 56CS

Making its world debut, the 18-metre Contest 56CS builds on the award-winning performance of its predecessor, refining a proven formula rather than reinventing it. Developed in close collaboration with judel vrolijk & co, Wetzels Brown and Lloyd’s Register, this latest model introduces a host of thoughtful enhancements to both interior comfort and exterior design, responding to the growing demand for greater onboard space and liveability. Crucially, these advancements come without compromise to the performance, safety and seakeeping that define the brand, while new features such as the optional hardtop bimini showcase how intelligent engineering can seamlessly unite practicality with striking design.
