Overview

57FT/17m High Speed Aluminum Alloy Yacht Luxury Fiberglass Boat is a aluminium luxury yacht built in Qingdao, China by a yard that has specialised in welded aluminium hulls for more than fifteen years. It is designed around private cruising, family holidays and premium charter use, so the whole boat is laid out to be simple to operate, easy to service and inexpensive to keep in the water. The hull is fabricated from marine grade aluminium alloy 5083 H116 plate that is CNC cut, formed on jigs and then fully welded by certified welders working to a documented welding procedure. Unlike timber or composites, welded aluminium does not absorb water, cannot delaminate and does not rot, so the boat keeps her weight, her top speed and her fuel consumption almost unchanged over many seasons of hard daily service. That is exactly why commercial operators, charter companies and serious private owners choose welded aluminium when they want a boat that still works as well in year five as it did on delivery day.

With a length overall of 17.18 m, a beam of 4.2 m and a moulded depth of 2.92 m, this boat is a practical size that is easy to handle with a small crew and still comfortable for a full day afloat. She carries up to 12 passengers and is fitted with a protected salon with panoramic glazing, a forward cabin with berths, a practical galley corner and a large aft deck for dining and sunbathing. The deep-V planing bottom keeps the ride dry, stable and predictable in a chop, while the designed draft of only 0.86 m opens up shallow bays, rivers and sheltered anchorages that deeper boats simply cannot reach. Fuel capacity of 316 litres gives a useful range for island transfers, long working days and weekend cruising, and the engine package can be specified as outboard or inboard diesel with a matched propeller, steering system and instrument panel so that the boat suits the way you actually use her.

Applications

57FT/17m High Speed Aluminum Alloy Yacht Luxury Fiberglass Boat is the right tool for private family cruising, coastal and island holidays, corporate entertainment, VIP transfer and premium day charters. On a typical working day she can leave the harbour early, run out to the fishing grounds or the job site, stay on station for hours in a light chop and be back alongside before the weather changes. For charter and tourism work the open deck converts quickly into comfortable seating, a shaded sun awning can be added over the helm and the aft deck, and a simple boarding platform with a stainless steel ladder makes swimming stops and shore transfers easy for guests of every age. Private owners appreciate that the same boat can be used for a serious fishing trip on Saturday and a relaxed family picnic on Sunday, because the seating and storage are modular and the boat needs only minimal maintenance between trips. The hull can also be supplied with a removable fish box, a bait table, a pot hauler or a small crane, so one platform covers several different jobs without buying several different boats.

Why Choose This Yacht

Every boat is welded from marine grade aluminium alloy 5083 H116, a plate grade that is specifically developed for salt water service and is far more resistant to corrosion than ordinary commercial aluminium. The welding, the hull geometry and the material certificates are all controlled in house, and each hull is pressure tested, measured and weighed before it is painted. The paint system is a full Jotun marine specification with proper surface preparation, primer and topcoat, and all deck hardware, rails, cleats and fasteners are 316L stainless steel so that nothing rusts away in a coastal environment. Navigation equipment comes from GARMIN, wiring is tinned marine cable run in protected ducts, and every boat is finished with LED lighting, automatic bilge pumps, navigation lights and a full set of safety equipment. Before delivery the boat is launched, sea trialled, speed tested and photographed, and you receive a sea trial report, a full set of general arrangement drawings, an operation and maintenance manual and export documentation. We also support you after delivery with spare parts, technical advice and remote online support, so a boat bought in China is never a boat bought alone.

FAQ

Q: Can the layout and the colour of this boat be customized? A: Yes. The deck layout, seating, console, cabin, fuel tank position, hull colour and company logo can all be changed to suit your own operation. Send us your drawings or simply describe how you intend to use the boat and our design team will return a general arrangement drawing and a quotation within a few working days.

Q: What engine and what speed can be fitted? A: The boat is normally supplied with a matched outboard or inboard diesel package. With the recommended package the hull reaches about 25 knots in light condition, and we can fit a larger or smaller power option if you prefer more top speed or lower fuel consumption. The propeller, steering system and instrument panel are selected together with the engine so that the boat performs correctly from the first day.

Q: How long is the production and delivery time? A: A standard boat is normally ready for sea trial about sixty to ninety days after the deposit is received, depending on the specification and on the current production schedule. Delivery can be arranged by container for smaller models or on the boat own bottom for larger yachts, and we provide the full set of export documents, CE certification and packing list so that the boat clears customs without delay.

Packaging and Delivery

Each boat is protected for transport with hull wrapping film, foam edge protection on the rails and a full set of lifting slings and certified lifting points. Small and medium models are shipped in a standard container with the console, seating and loose equipment crated separately, while larger yachts can be loaded on a flat rack, on a heavy lift vessel or delivered on their own bottom by a professional delivery skipper. We provide packing list, commercial invoice, bill of lading, CE certificate and a set of shipping photographs before the boat leaves the yard, and we can also arrange the container loading or the heavy lift booking on your behalf if you prefer a door to door service.
