2012 PRESTIGE 500 S

A proven 50-foot entertainer with Volvo IPS joystick handling, three cabins and two ensuites — privately owned, professionally maintained, around 500 hours.

The Prestige 500 S is one of the most successful 50 ft sport yachts ever produced, combining performance, usability and refined European styling. This example stands out as a privately owned, professionally maintained vessel with low hours and a strong specification.

Why this boat stands out

• Twin Volvo IPS600 (425hp x 2) — smooth, efficient, joystick docking
• Approximately 500 hours; lightly used, not commercial
• Three-cabin layout with two ensuites
• Electric opening sport roof with integrated blinds
• Teak-laid cockpit and swim platform; hydraulic platform
• 1,300 L fuel and 636 L water — a capable coastal cruiser

Performance and handling

Twin Volvo IPS600 pod drives with joystick docking, electronic controls, cruise control, trim assist and low-speed mode. Top speed approximately 30 knots. A confidence-inspiring boat to operate, even short-handed.

Deck, cockpit and helm

• Teak-laid cockpit and swim platform; electric windlass with helm chain counter
• Foredeck sunpad; hot/cold transom shower; cockpit seating with integrated sound
• Electric opening GRP roof; fully equipped helm with joystick and full instrumentation; opening side window and demisters

Saloon and galley

U-shaped saloon seating with opening side windows. A proper galley with Corian benchtops, three-burner cooktop, microwave/grill, large fridge and separate freezer, galley island storage and timber flooring.

Accommodation

• Full-beam master with private access, panoramic windows, ensuite with separate shower and a dressing area

Systems

Generator-ready electrical system with shore power, full engine and house battery banks with monitoring display, air conditioning and LED lighting throughout, automatic engine-room fire system, multiple bilge pumps with alarms. A properly equipped cruising boat, not a stripped weekender.

Suits an owner upgrading from a 35–45 ft cruiser who wants 50 ft capability without 50 ft complexity, and entertainers who value cockpit-to-saloon flow.
