Vanquish Yachts’ VQ58 concept has been a great success with a number of orders already placed since its recent introduction. Designed by the Dutch powerboat builder to blend essential components from three popular Vanquish models and available in three versions, the VQ58 showcases why the driver’s boat philosophy at Vanquish has been such a hit in a fiercely competitive market. The fact that this powerboat can effortlessly attain speeds of 50 knots adds to the attraction.
The new orders for the VQ58s have come in from places as diverse as the United States, Scandinavia and the Mediterranean. There are now three different versions of the VQ58 available for discerning clients. The Wheelhouse with an open sun roof, a T-top featuring a fixed roof and an Open version. All three can be delivered with two suites with bathrooms (including a full-beam master) or with three cabins.
The VQ58 centres on a flexible concept that includes a range of choices in terms of propulsion. The yacht comes as standard with Cummins engines with the Volvo IPS950 being an option, both complete with joystick controls. Clients looking for an even more serious turn of speed can go for twin MAN V8 1200hp engines with surface drive propulsion.
The first boats are currently being built and will be delivered in the spring or summer of 2019.
