Overview

Not For Sale To US Residents While In US Waters

Some yachts are designed to look good at the dock. This 2023 Bluewater 56 (Hull 5) was built for the owner who actually wants to go?comfortably, confidently, and without a two-year build timeline or a refit list.

Just as importantly, this is as ?new? as it gets. CENTURION is dialed-in from delivery and commissioning, with the upgrades and finishing details already sorted. In today?s market, that?s rare: this is about as close to ?perfect? as you?re going to get for a truly turnkey, modern yacht.

At the core is what matters most: a German Frers center-cockpit platform that has earned its reputation offshore?solid-glass construction with a Twaron aramid structure, a half skeg-hung rudder concept for added protection and tracking, and a step-down transom for practical boarding and water access. The three-cabin layout delivers real liveaboard functionality, and the interior execution is exactly what you?d expect at this level: white oak joinery, Ultraleather upholstery, smart storage, and thoughtful details like the third cabin with a double pull-out berth and a stainless plate beneath designed as a true workbench.

For serious cruising, the configuration is dialed: 305 gallons of fuel and 300 gallons of freshwater deliver meaningful range and autonomy, while 7'4" draft supports bluewater and Caribbean cruising programs.

The rig and sailhandling package is where this boat separates itself for short-handed cruising: Selden synchronized electric furling and electric winches, paired with a real Doyle inventory including Hydranet triradial sails, plus a bowsprit and downwind inventory that makes light-air sailing and passagemaking realistic for an owner-operator.

Below, the systems spec is the kind buyers seek when they plan to spend real time away from the dock: 1,600Ah lithium, dual Mastervolt 4,500W inverters, 1,000W solar, CruisAir 3-zone reverse-cycle A/C, Spectra Cape Horn 380 watermaker, Cablemaster, and Arid Bilge system?backed by modern offshore electronics and a layout that works for real cruising.
