Description

Blue water cruiser

The Contest 57CS is in 2011 the first model in the Contest Yachts range with the characteristic double cockpit; a helming area from where she can be operated easily with her push-button sailing technique and a lounging cockpit which can stay covered with a bimini whilst sailing. She has the sense of the big boat, yet she sails with the natural touch for which Contest Yachts are so renowned. With an accommodation plan to suit every use from cruising couple to family and friends, this Contest 57CS demonstrates not just great standards of craftsmanship but versatility to sound design, sound engineering, together delivering enviable performance, designed by Georg Nissen.
