Beneteau Oceanis 55: Call it a Sailing Yacht, not a Sailboat

Defined by versatility and a high level of customization, this luxurious cruiser strives to be a mini-superyacht.

The Beneteau Oceanis 55 first premiered in Dusseldorf (Beneteau Oceanis 55: A Hint of Megayacht Style) but it was first seen in the US at the Miami boat show, where crowds lined up to visit what looked like a small superyacht – yes, an oxymoron.
