2020 Outbound 56 | 56ft

Pneumatic offers a rare opportunity to own a well outfitted and lightly used US documented Outbound/Bluewater 56. The fact that she has already been imported, had the 25% tariff paid, and is ready to go cruising immediately represents a significant savings of both time and money that will allow you to start living your dream sooner rather than later!

As Mark Twain said “Twenty years from now, you will be more disappointed by the things you didn’t do than by the ones you did do. So throw off the bowlines. Sail away from the safe harbor. Catch the trade winds in your sails. Explore. Dream. Discover.”

The Outbound/Bluewater 56 may look familiar to you, as it is the same proven Frers design that was originally developed for Hylas, of which 27 boats were built. Bluewater Yachts acquired the tooling and are now building them at the same yard that builds Outbound Yachts. In fact, hull #1 debuted as an Outbound 56 in the 2019 Annapolis Sailboat Show, and in December of 2020 hull #2 was commissioned which is now called the Bluewater 56.

The Outbound/Bluewater 56 features a proper offshore bow entry and hull shape which deliver swiftness, power and stability, while maximizing space down below. There is more than ample room for a luxurious owner’s suite aft, beautifully finished in hand-chosen woods. Offshore comfort is further enhanced by the way the hulls are built, the Twaron aramid fiber (a form of Kevlar) yields “bullet-proof” strength for added safety.

This also reduces fatigue on offshore passages and ensure a well rested crew. Anyone who steps aboard the Outbound/Bluewater 56 will also appreciate the high level of craftsmanship and attention to detail that went into building the boat, combined with the well thought out and spacious design ensures that time aboard is time well spent.
