Fairline Targa 50 EDITION For Sale

Fairline built the Targa 50 EDITION as a limited run of its 50 OPEN, and the changes are cosmetic rather than structural. An anthracite mast, an anthracite hardtop and a grey band along the hull replace the usual white, and the cockpit gains a darker headliner with integrated lighting at high and low level. It is a trim package aimed at buyers who want the model to read a little harder.

The mechanical package is fixed. Twin Volvo Penta IPS700 units on D8-550 blocks give 1,100 hp and 34 knots, the quickest figure in the Targa range at this length. There is no alternative engine and no lower-powered entry point.

The deck follows the 50 OPEN. A hardtop with a sliding panel covers the helm and cockpit, the teak cockpit table cantilevers out of sight when the space is needed, and a wet bar handles entertaining without a trip below. The garage takes a Williams 285 TurboJET.

Below there are two cabins and four berths, the owner cabin forward and a mid cabin behind it, sharing one heads with a separate shower. At 15.64 metres including the pulpit and platform, and 13 tonnes dry, the boat sits at the top of what an owner can comfortably run without crew.

Numbers are limited and every hull is built by hand at Oundle in England.
