An impressive master cabin on a 45-footer separates this boat from the competition
The next-generation Prestige range kicked off with two very impressive 50ft models, the 500 and 550, notable for some exciting thinking on master cabins. Now comes the same concept in a more affordable 45ft package.
Inspired greatly by the layout of its best selling 500, this is a unique sub-50ft aft cockpit boat in that it has two entirely separate cabin areas, each accessed by its own individual stairwell.
Price excludes VAT.
