Hello Boater
Maritimo S55
New Look For Maritimo Yachts
NEW EXPRESS CRUISER. The new Maritimo S55 express is a departure from the enclosed flybridge designs we are used to seeing from the Australian builder. This design should always be in style because of her clean lines without affectation.
COOL AND COMPACT Aquador, part of the Nimbus Group, presents the 250HT, a hearty design from Finland. This single-outboard vessel offers a fusion of weather protection with its coupe design, and fresh air with the sunroof open.
PROTECTING YOUR BACK AND NECK. For nearly 20 years, Seaspension shock-absorbing pedestals have been in use by the U.S. Navy, Coast Guard, and other government services to protect personnel when pounding fast into rough seas. They are a simple, low-cost solution that provide a better boating experience.
GREAT LOOP VETERAN. This popular pilothouse trawler is known for its sea-keeping abilities and long-range cruising. Rare twin diesel with dual wing stations. The vessel showcases Selene's quality craftsmanship with top-notch joinery, space planning, and ample storage. With recent updates, she’s ready for adventure.
