Design Highlights

Engineered around space

OBLUE 55 side profile
01

Full-Beam Deckhouse Architecture

Side decks are eliminated to maximize the enclosed salon volume — a full 7.42-metre-wide living space rarely found under 60 feet.

02

Integrated Zoned Deck Space

Semi-independent partitions with fore–mid–aft connectivity create distinct social zones that still flow as one continuous deck.

03

Adaptive Open-Air Layout

Modular furniture supports multi-scenario configurations — from sunset cocktails for twelve to an open-deck event platform.

Carbon Fiber

Why carbon fiber

Aerospace-grade carbon fiber composite is the most consequential choice in the OBLUE 55 — lighter, stronger and quieter than any aluminium or GRP hull of comparable size.

Under vacuum, carbon fiber cloth, PVC core and resin fuse on high-precision moulds into a single sandwich structure — cured in one shot, with exceptional stiffness at a fraction of the weight of metal shipbuilding.

The composite hull is immune to salt-water corrosion and highly fatigue-resistant: paintwork lasts longer, maintenance bills shrink, and resale value stays exceptionally strong.

−30%structural weight versus a comparable aluminium build
−20%fuel consumption thanks to the lightweight hull
−40%hull maintenance costs across the service life
−17%cabin noise — conversation-level sound underway
