SWEET HOPE is as close to new as one will find. With only 260 hours of run time the boat shows impeccably. If you are looking for a fuel efficient and stylish flybridge cruising yacht look no further.

The Palm Beach 50 represents a rare combination of classic Downeast-inspired styling, contemporary luxury, exceptional performance and remarkable efficiency. Named “Best New Powerboat” upon her U.S. debut in 2010, the Palm Beach 50 quickly established itself as one of the most sophisticated performance cruising yachts in her class.

This Palm Beach 50 is exceptionally well equipped and features a long list of desirable factory and custom upgrades, including the optional flybridge with hardtop and electronics, twin Volvo IPS 600 engines, Dynamic Positioning System, Side-Power bow thruster, extensive Garmin electronics, generator, upgraded electrical systems, teak cockpit and swim platform, underwater lighting, satellite TV and premium entertainment systems.

Her construction is equally impressive. The Palm Beach 50 utilizes an advanced composite construction process incorporating E-Glass, Corecell and Airex foam, Duflex paneling, stitched multi-axial fabrics, vinylester and epoxy resins. Fixed furniture and structural bulkheads are bonded directly to the hull and deck, creating an exceptionally rigid and lightweight structure.

The result is a yacht that is as enjoyable to operate as she is beautiful to look at. Her finely shaped, low-center-of-gravity hull delivers a remarkably smooth ride, excellent tracking and impressive fuel economy. Twin Volvo IPS drives provide intuitive handling, while joystick control, Dynamic Positioning and a bow thruster make close-quarters maneuvering remarkably easy.

Vessel Overview:

DESIGN & LAYOUT

The Palm Beach 50 features a highly functional single-level main deck, creating an unusually open connection between the cockpit, salon and aft galley. Large opening windows and expansive glass provide excellent natural light and 360-degree visibility while allowing the interior and exterior living spaces to function as one.

The cockpit features a large aft L-settee, teak decking, wet bar, refrigerator, freezer and icemaker, making it an exceptional entertaining space. The extended teak swim platform provides easy access to the water and additional outdoor living space. A custom soft top was installed in 2023 which provides complete shade over the cockpit.

Inside, the salon features custom Ultraleather seating, teak cabinetry, a high-gloss varnished teak dining table and a retractable Samsung HDTV. The aft galley is ideally positioned to serve both the salon and cockpit.

The accommodations plan provides two staterooms and one fully enclosed head, with a custom island berth in the master and a pull-out double berth in the guest stateroom.
