PRESTIGE 500 2017 FOR SALE

Some yachts appear larger than they are because of clever design, while others genuinely manage to offer the onboard lifestyle of a larger yacht. This 2017 Prestige 500 clearly belongs to the latter group. Her full-beam owner's suite, flybridge, large hydraulic platform and three-cabin layout create a sense of space that is striking from the moment you step aboard.

This boat combines that volume with a particularly easy-to-handle configuration: twin Volvo Penta IPS600 engines, joystick, bow thruster, Raymarine electronics, climate control, generator and numerous comfort systems. With around 200 engine hours, she is a particularly interesting proposition for anyone looking for a modern, manageable flybridge yacht ready to serve both as a holiday platform and as a private retreat on the water.

About this Prestige 500

Built in 2017, this Prestige 500 represents one of the most successful configurations in the Prestige range. Her architecture clearly separates the social area from the cabins and gives the master suite a full-beam position amidships, providing a level of privacy and volume that is unusual for a yacht of this length.

The boat is powered by two Volvo Penta IPS600 engines producing 435 hp each, with approximately 200 hours, IPS drives and joystick control. The propulsion package is complemented by a bow thruster and electronic controls, making her especially easy to handle during harbour manoeuvres.

On board there are three cabins, two bathrooms, an equipped galley, zoned climate control, Raymarine electronics, a submersible hydraulic bathing platform, aft tender garage and a generously sized flybridge. Together, these features create a yacht with an especially well-balanced combination of performance, volume, ease of use and outdoor living.

Why this boat stands out

What makes this Prestige 500 particularly interesting is the number of features normally associated with a larger yacht that are concentrated within a relatively manageable length. The full-beam master suite, flybridge, hydraulic platform and garage provide a genuine yacht-living experience without moving into dimensions that make day-to-day management excessively complicated.

IPS propulsion with joystick and bow thruster reinforces that ease of use, while approximately 200 engine hours add a particularly relevant advantage for a 2017 boat. It is a very well-balanced configuration for anyone looking for space, technology and comfortable family use.

Fontnautic opinion

For Fontnautic, the Prestige 500 is one of the models that best explains the modern European flybridge philosophy: using every metre of length to create volume, light and privacy without sacrificing pleasant handling and straightforward operation.

We particularly like the full-beam master cabin and the way the galley, saloon and cockpit connect on a single level. These design decisions make the yacht feel considerably larger during everyday life on board.

This particular boat also adds very low hours, a hydraulic platform, garage and IPS propulsion. For a buyer looking for a modern, comfortable and easy-to-use yacht, we believe it remains a particularly attractive reference in the fifty-foot sector.
