2017 Prestige 500

The 2017 Prestige 500 is a 50-foot fiberglass flybridge motor yacht powered by twin Volvo Penta IPS 600 diesel engines delivering 870 horsepower. The yacht cruises at 24 knots and reaches 29 knots at full speed. Twin helm stations—upper and lower—are equipped with Raymarine HybridTouch chartplotters, closed-array radar, autopilot, and VHF radio. IPS joystick docking control is mounted in the cockpit for precise maneuvering. Additional features include a bow thruster, hydraulic swim platform, satellite television, and upgraded Fusion and JL Audio entertainment systems throughout.

The interior spans four staterooms and three heads. The full-beam Owner's Suite amidships offers private entry, large hull windows on both sides, generous headroom, abundant storage, and a private en-suite head. The forward VIP stateroom provides a centerline berth with natural light from overhead and hull windows, plus direct access to the second head. A third stateroom holds twin berths, and captain's quarters provide crew or additional flexible space. The salon features panoramic windows, contemporary styling, and custom hardwood flooring. The galley is equipped with full-sized refrigerator and freezer, white Corian countertops, three-burner cooktop, convection microwave, twin single-basin sinks, and icemaker. A Splendide washer/dryer is located beneath the forward companionway.

The flybridge includes an open galley with grill and sink, molded refrigerator compartment, generous seating, and a bimini for shade. A custom cockpit enclosure with electric retracting awning extends seasonal usability. The bow features a cantilevering sunpad with bimini. Recent updates include teak refinishing in August 2025, new bottom paint applied in fall 2025, custom exterior covers, and a major service scheduled for January 2026. The engine hours are approximately 1,000.
