Maritimo / Maritimo M55 Black Edition
The Maritimo M55 Black Edition is a 56-foot enclosed-flybridge motor yacht hand-built on Australia’s Gold Coast. It takes the proven M-Series hull and layers on the Black Edition styling and specification package, bringing the 55-footer into line with Maritimo’s current generation of long-range flybridge cruisers. The focus throughout is on blue-water capability, owner-operation and the kind of enclosed, climate-controlled living space that lets a couple cross oceans in comfort.
At the heart of the boat is a fully enclosed, air-conditioned flybridge Maritimo calls the Sky Lounge. Reached by an internal staircase, it combines two lounging areas, an upgraded two- and three-door wet bar and a large aft deck under a hardtop, turning the upper level into a genuine second saloon rather than a fair-weather helm station. On the main deck, the aft galley opens directly onto a redesigned cockpit, where a reworked transom island adds lounge seating and an expanded barbecue area.
Below decks the M55 sleeps six in three staterooms served by two ensuites: a full-beam king master amidships, an offset queen forward and a twin-berth starboard guest cabin. Raised headroom and fewer steps between levels are a deliberate part of the Black Edition update, improving the sense of space and the ease of moving around underway.
Power comes from twin Volvo Penta D13 diesels of 800 horsepower each on conventional shaft drives, matched to a 4,550-litre fuel capacity that underpins the model’s long-range credentials. Built in Australia by Maritimo’s in-house team and engineered specifically for demanding offshore conditions, the M55 Black Edition is a serious passage-maker aimed at owners who cruise beyond protected waters.

Twin 800-horsepower Volvo Penta D13 diesels drive the M55 on straight shafts, a simple and robust arrangement chosen for reliability on long passages. A 4,550-litre fuel tank gives the enclosed-flybridge hull the range that defines the M-Series, while the deep-vee offshore hull form is engineered for comfort and sea-keeping in open water.
The Black Edition package sharpens the M55’s profile and reworks the deck spaces. A redesigned transom island carries an upgraded lounge and an expanded barbecue area, and walk-around side decks lead forward with minimal steps. The enclosed hardtop flybridge gives the boat its distinctive long-range silhouette.
Three staterooms sleep six, with two ensuites. A full-beam king master sits amidships, an offset queen cabin forward and a twin-berth guest cabin to starboard. Raised headroom and reduced level changes make the accommodation feel larger than the length overall suggests.
The climate-controlled Sky Lounge adds a second enclosed living area on the flybridge, with two seating zones, an upgraded wet bar and a sheltered aft deck. On the main deck the aft galley flows into the cockpit, blurring the line between inside and out.
Designed and hand-built in Australia by Maritimo, the M55 Black Edition is set up for owner-operation and serious offshore use. Pricing is by enquiry and specification-dependent; the figure shown is an indicative estimate pending a confirmed new-build price.
