2009 PERSHING 56

PERSHING 56 SOLD

PERSHING 56 IS OBVIOUSLY AN EXCITING RIDE, BUT ULTIMATELY SHE SUCCEEDS BECAUSE SHE DELIVERS HIGH STYLE AND BLAZING SPEED, QUALITIES INFUSED IN ITALIAN CULTURE.

FOR ACCOMMODATION THERE IS THE NORMAL ARRANGEMENT OF DOUBLE CABINS FORWARD AND AFT, WITH A TWIN CABIN TUCKED IN ON THE STARBOARD SIDE. THIS TENDS TO BUNCH THINGS UP A BIT, AND AN ALTERNATIVE TWO-CABIN VERSION IS LIKELY TO BE THE ONE OFFERED IN THE U.S. MARKET. THIS WOULD ALLOW A FULL-WIDTH MASTER STATEROOM AMIDSHIPS WITH A LARGE BATHROOM AND A COMFORTABLE VIP CABIN FORWARD.

THE LOWER SALOON FEATURES AN L-SETTEE AROUND A DINING TABLE WITH THE GALLEY OPPOSITE; THE GALLEY CAN BE CLOSED OFF WITH A SLIDING TRANSLUCENT DOOR. THE MASTER CABIN OF THE THREE-CABIN VERSION HAS A SIMILAR DOOR TO CLOSE OFF THE BATHROOM FROM THE MAIN CABIN.

UPSTAIRS, THE COCKPIT SALOON WILL BE THE FOCUS OF MOST OF THE ACTION. THERE IS GOOD SEATING AT THE HELM WITH THE SOCIAL AREA IMMEDIATELY BEHIND IT. THE TABLE CAN BE OPENED UP FOR DINING; OPPOSITE ON THE PORT SIDE IS A WET BAR AND AN ELECTRIC BARBECUE. I AM NOT SURE ABOUT THIS LOCATION FOR THE BARBECUE, AS IT IS WELL UNDER THE HARD TOP, BUT THE RIGHT BREEZE BLOWING THROUGH FROM THE OPEN SUNROOF SHOULD BLOW AWAY THE COOKING FUMES.
