About

Interior

Classically finished with solid wood cabinetry across the three-cabin layout, the Fleming 55 is designed for longer, liveaboard cruises. The owner’s stateroom is set forward, with two further guest cabins amidships. The deck salon features a large galley and lots of stowage. The pilothouse-style helm is reached via the salon with its own side deck access and steps up to the flybridge.

Exterior

Masses of practical and social space is spread across the 55, with a large foredeck, Portuguese bridge, grand aft deck and expansive upper deck with a lounge area.

Performance

The semi-displacement hull offers fast cruising around 20 knots, but reduce speed and the 55 will deliver very comfortable long-range passage-making.

From The Manufacturer

The hull shape has proven time and time again to have superior fuel efficiency and the most comfortable ride in all conditions. Whether it’s island hopping, coastal, or offshore cruising, the Fleming 55 provides a refined, elegant, and safe passage.

The standard three-cabin/two-head arrangement houses the master Island Queen ensuite forward, a twin- or double-berth cabin to port, and twin bunks or an optional office to starboard. The port cabin can also accommodate two additional upper bunks for extra guests or larger families. A two-cabin/two-head arrangement is also available, allowing for larger port and forward cabins. The salon allows flexibility for seating arrangements, cabinetry and appliances. The galley houses full-sized appliances, including a 21-cubic-foot, side-by-side refrigerator/freezer.

Optional control stations make docking a breeze and the Fleming’s low profile, deep keel and 30 ton displacement makes her easy to handle in close quarters. Sliding doors to the salon have self-locking latches to prevent them running amok if inadvertently left unsecured when going to sea. Lockable, gasketed hatches provide access to a capacious lazarette for storage of fenders and lines. A hot and cold shower can be reached from the swim step which, with safety in mind, has a retractable ladder underneath deployable by a person in the water.

The spacious cockpit is 130 sq ft., perfect for relaxing and, in fine weather, forms an extension to the salon. An optional control stations makes docking a breeze and the Fleming's low profile, deep keel and 30 ton displacement makes her easy to handle in close quarters.

The pilothouse provides a dedicated control station which immediately brings to mind the bridge of a ship or the cockpit of an airliner. This is the nerve center of the boat where the serious business of conning the vessel takes place.

As you relax on the upholstered settee in the salon your eye takes in the richness of the teak exquisitely shaped by those craftsmen who know their trade. Essential to that feeling of relaxation is the harmony provided by the meticulous scaling of each and every piece of furniture and by the attention to detail.

The forward stateroom is light and airy with portlights and skylights. The bed lifts open easily at the touch of a button to give easy access to storage space for bulky items such as towels and blankets.

The standard galley in the Fleming is an extension to the salon. It is equipped with a 21 cubic ft side-by-side fridge/freezer so there is no need to stoop to reach inside. The doors have sea lock.

There is a convection microwave with built-in light and hood over the ceramic, easy-to-clean cook top equipped with the increasingly rare - but absolutely essential - potholders of a design unique to the Fleming.
