There are yachts that seem larger than they are due to design, and others that really manage to offer life on board of a greater length. This 2017 Prestige 500 clearly belongs to the latter. Its full-beam owner's suite, the flybridge, the large hydraulic platform and the layout of three cabins allow you to enjoy the boat with a feeling of spaciousness that surprises from the first moment.The unit combines this habitability with a particularly easy-to-handle configuration: two Volvo Penta IPS600s, joystick, bow thruster, Raymarine electronics, air conditioning, generator and numerous comfort equipment. With around 200 engine hours, it is a particularly interesting proposal for those looking for a modern, manageable flybridge prepared to become both a vacation platform and a private refuge on the sea.About this Prestige 500Built in 2017, this Prestige 500 represents one of the most successful configurations in the Prestige range. Its architecture clearly separates the social area from the cabins and reserves for the master suite a full beam position in the center of the boat, offering a level of privacy and volume unusual in this length.The unit is equipped with two Volvo Penta IPS600 435 HP, with approximately 200 hours, IPS transmission and maneuvering joystick. The propulsion is complemented by a bow thruster and electronic controls, providing ease of handling that is especially valuable during maneuvers in port.On board we find three cabins, two bathrooms, equipped kitchen, zoned air conditioning, Raymarine electronics, submersible hydraulic platform, aft garage and a large flybridge. All this creates a yacht especially balanced between performance, volume, ease of use and outdoor life.Technical dataShipyard: PrestigeModel: Prestige 500Year: 2017Type: Motor Yacht / FlybridgeLength: 15.20 mBeam: 4.50 mDraft: approx. 1.05mHull material: GRP / GRPCE Category: BMaximum capacity: 12 peopleCabins: 3Bathrooms: 2Fuel: DieselFuel tank: 1,300 lFresh water tank: 636 lFlag: SpanishMotorization and maneuverEngines: 2 × Volvo Penta IPS600Power: 435 HP per engineTotal power: 870 HPFuel: DieselHours: approx. 200 hoursTransmission: Volvo Penta IPSIPS joystickbow thrusterVolvo Penta electronic controlsTwin helm stationsElectronics and navigation2 Raymarine HybridTouch screensGPS/PlotterRadarautopilotDepth sounderVolvo Penta digital instrumentationVHFCompassRepeated instrumentation on flybridgesearch lightAnchoring and positioningElectric windlassAnchorChainanchor wellAnchoring equipmentMooring linesFenderselectrical systemGeneratorShore power socketInverterBattery chargerService battery banksStarting batteriesElectrical service systemhot water systemZoned air conditioningHeatingLED lightingExterior and deckLarge flybridgeSecond helm stationflybridge seating areaflybridge tableBimini / sun protectionBow sundeckAft cockpitCockpit covered in natural teakTeak side hallwaysTeak bow areaTeak-covered submersible hydraulic bathing platformAft garage for a tenderOutdoor shower with hot and cold waterComplete cockpit closure with PVC windows and mosquito netsbathing ladderSpecific equipmentSubmersible hydraulic platformCapacity for a tender / jet skiAft garage for a tenderVolvo Penta IPS with joystickbow thrusterGeneratorComplete flybridgeBimini / sun protectionComplete cockpit closureBose systemWiFi depending on equipmentWine cellar / specific space for wines depending on configurationInterior and distributionLiving roomMain living room on one levelL-shaped sofaliving room tableBar cabinetretractable televisionBose systemAir conditioningHeatingLED lightingLarge glass surfacesStorage spacesKitchenEquipped kitchen3-burner induction hobelectric ovenHousehold size fridge/freezerstainless steel sinkhot waterCountertopClosets and storageCabins and accommodation3 cabinsFull beam owner's master suite amidshipsDouble cabin in the bowSide cabin with convertible single bedsWardrobesStorage spacesAir conditioningLED lightingBathrooms2 full bathroomselectric toiletsSeparate showersSinkshot waterbathroom furnitureComfort and additional equipmentZoned air conditioningHeatinghot water systemGeneratorInverterBose systemretractable televisionWashing machine according to configurationDesalinator according to configurationWiFi depending on configurationThree cabinsTwo bathroomsEquipped kitchenFlybridgeHydraulic platformStern garageBow sundeckComplete cockpit closureMaintenance and improvementsGeneral maintenance updated according to available informationVolvo Penta IPS Systems ReviewGenerator maintenanceHydraulic platform maintenanceDocumentation availableWhy this unit stands outWhat makes this Prestige 500 especially interesting is the number of functions typical of a larger yacht concentrated in a contained length. The full-beam master suite, flybridge, hydraulic platform and garage allow you to enjoy a true yacht life without entering dimensions that excessively complicate daily management.The IPS propulsion with joystick and bow thruster precisely reinforces this ease of use, while the approximately 200 engine hours add a particularly relevant argument for a 2017 unit. It is a very balanced configuration for those looking for space, technology and comfortable family use.
