Overview
Meticulously maintained and mostly freshwater cruised/winter stored, the current owner has already purchased a larger Fleming. A number of upgrades were recently performed including: Furuno Navnet 3D, bow & stern thrusters, new engine controls (2013), and new Steelhead Davit (2013).
When new, the vessel was damaged in shipping and then was professionally repaired and the entire exterior was Awlgripped. The current owner had it thoroughly surveyed when he purchased it, 10 years ago, and has enjoyed cruising the boat ever since. Featuring a Queen berth in port guest stateroom with bunks in starboard guest stateroom, it’s ready to go cruising.

Descriptions
Entering the salon from the aft deck through the double doors you are immediately impressed by the spaciousness and ambiance. The attention to detail and exquisite handmade teak paneled cabinets gives rise to feelings of warmth and relaxation. The 16’ beam provides space enough for dining and lounging areas and great care has been taken to balance scale with function. The open floor plan of the salon encompasses the galley and dining area which can comfortably seat six.
Along the port side of the salon is an L-Shaped settee anchored by a bar and refrigerator/wine cooler to aft. The starboard side includes an entertainment center hidden behind a teak cabinet followed by a full credenza with ample storage.

Galley:
The spacious U-shaped galley has granite counter tops and is equipped with stainless steel double bowl sinks, waste disposal, convection microwave, three burner cook top, and a full-size refrigerator with ice and water dispenser. A storage compartment just forward of the cook top accommodates a full range of saucepans. A locker and small pantry on the starboard side provides additional storage and a convenient serving counter for morning coffee.
|
Accommodations:
The accommodations layout features a central passage which has proved to be so desirable over the years in the Fleming 55. This layout contributes to an easy and convenient flow of traffic through the boat as well as making it possible to appreciate the full length of the boat from forepeak bulkhead to transom. The arrangement provides an en-suite master stateroom forward, a VIP guest cabin with queen berth to port, and a guest stateroom with bunk arrangement to starboard. The accommodations are dressed with teak and Formica and offers great comfort and convenience without any steep stairs to negotiate. Centrally located in the passage, behind a sliding teak door is the ASKO full-sized 220v washer & separate dryer.
The master stateroom includes a queen island berthwith two skylights. Ample storage is accomplished via a large cavity underneath the bed that is accessed through gas assist struts. Additional storage is found via his and hers hanging lockers, drawers, & book shelves. A flat screen 15” LG HDTV is located on the starboard side with a Norcent DVD player.
Both master and guest heads are spacious with generous glass and stainless steel shower enclosures. Each head contains Headhunter electric flush toilets, Hansgrohe thermostatic controlled fixtures and granite countertops along with one piece molded fiberglass stall showers.
The port stateroom has a queen berth with an additional slide upper bunk outboard. Storage is provided through a large hanging locker and dresser, vanity/desk arrangement on the inboard bulkhead and built-in shelving along the aft wall. The starboard stateroom features bunks with a slide out upper berth. Hanging locker, drawers, and bookshelves provide ample storage for gear.
Pilothouse:
In many modern designs it has become fashionable to eliminate the inside steering station, but the Fleming 55 features a pilothouse which closely resembles the bridge of a much larger vessel. Fleming created a dedicated place from which the boat is piloted and controlled without any distractions from other on-board activities.The pilothouse is still only three steps from the salon and galley and four interior steps safely lead to the upper flybridge station.
Specially designed removable consoles provide ample room for a full range of modern electronic equipment without intruding on the full range of engine instrumentation. Overhead consoles provide additional space. There is also a proper chart area with drawers and a chart light. Both AC and DC electrical panels swing out to provide easy access to wiring connections and the inside of the flybridge console is accessed through a swing-out bookcase. The watch-keeper has their own helm seat and an adjacent, raised L-shaped settee and table provide a comfortable social area with excellent visibility through the side and forward windows.
Visibility forward and to port and starboard is superb, and the two sliding doors open to the wide side decks. The traditional teak and holly sole is standard. There are large drawers and working space for charts, cruising books, and navigation instruments, binoculars and everything else a captain needs to chart and follow a safe course. A large stainless steel and teak-trimmed wheel fits the ambiance of this cruising yacht.
|
Flybridge:
The flybridge is easily accessed from the pilothouse or by ladder from the cockpit. The two-seater upper helm is located to port and provides full visibility particularly with close quarters and bustling harbors. The electronics console houses an array of engine instrumentation & navigation hardware with easy access via a hinged bookcase behind the settee in the pilothouse. The starboard side of the flybridge features a U-shaped settee with a large fixed table while the port side consists of an additional seating area and access to the dumbwaiter.

Deck & Construction Details:
In common with all Flemings, the hull is hand laid solid fiberglass reinforced with a grid of stringers and frames. Vinylester resin is used below the waterline with further protection provided by epoxy barrier coats. A reasonable five foot draft allows for Bahamas cruising while ensuring that the running gear is protected by a full-length keel which is foam filled and glassed across the top to isolate it from the hull.
Special attention has been paid to the ease and safety in which the heavy duty ground tackle is set and retrieved. The anchor platform accepts two anchors, each of which can be controlled by a handheld unit at the platform or by windlass controls at the flybridge station.
On deck she has the familiar walk-around decks we are used to seeing on all the Flemings and the high bulwarks and Portuguese Bridge provide security for both children and pets. Docking controls are located in the capacious cockpit starboard of the salon doors while additional storage is found behind the stairs to port. Four gasketed and lockable hatches provide access to the engine room and spacious lazarette.
|
Mechanical Systems:
The engine room is accessed from a hatch aft of the salon doors through the outside leading down to the well laid out engine room. Systems and engineering are a notable feature of all Fleming Yachts whose philosophy has always been to choose only the best equipment available for the job and make sure that it is readily accessible for maintenance. To achieve the extremely low sound and vibration that Flemings are known for, Aqudrive systems transfer the thrust directly to the hull and isolate the engine by using soft engine mounts.
The lazarette houses the water tanks, steering gear and air conditioning compressors while also leaving ample room for storing cruising gear such as spare anchors, rode, lines, fenders, and parts. Having the A/C compressors located here instead of in a hot engine room improves performance and efficiency and minimizes noise. Additionally, all battery isolation switches are accessible from outside the engine-room.
