Description

A Contest 55CS coming on the market is a rare and exciting opportunity, and "Venture" is no exception! Delivered in 2021 to her first and only owner, "Venture" has been thoughtfully built with a range of custom features that set her apart. From her striking custom paint color scheme to the white-painted mast and boom, every detail has been carefully considered to enhance her aesthetic and functionality. The yacht’s performance has been further elevated with an upgraded North Sails 3Di wardrobe, ensuring optimal sailing capabilities. Comfort on board is unmatched, with air conditioning throughout, a luxurious teak interior, and a host of amenities like a hydraulic gangway for effortless access. She has been meticulously maintained from day one by the dedicated service team of Contest Yachts, and is therefore presented in truly excellent, “as new” condition.

"Venture" is among the first yachts of the Contest 55CS range, designed in collaboration with Judel/Vrolijk, benefiting from their expertise in creating fast, seaworthy, and easily managed yachts. She offers the perfect blend of safety, comfort, and speed, all wrapped in a design that is both timeless and modern. The Contest 55CS was recognised with the prestigious European Yacht of the Year award in 2021!
