The Solaris 55 is the peak of sailing performance for a minimum crew and maximum luxury. It can out-perform many other yachts in its class, and with the self-tacking jib can be comfortably handled by a sole proficient sailor.
Drawing on their 50 years creating some of the most elegant yachts in the water, Solaris has continued their work with the talented naval architect Javier Soto Acebal for yet another successful collaboration in this masterful piece of performance engineering.
The focus of the Solaris 55 is for stability and hull balance, as the rounded shape of the stern and almost circular transom give plenty of interior space, and lends itself to a bow-up attitude for reduced drag and high stability at sea.
The small chine at the bow, tapering to a broad rounded stern for longitudinal trim gives excellent speed, while the twin rudders provide great stability for the high-performance hull design.

Adi Design has given the interior of the Solaris 55 complete luxury in gorgeous handcrafted oak for the generous kitchen and saloon, all in perfect symmetry. Three double cabins means you can take aboard plenty of companions in comfort and luxury. Each spacious cabin comes with its own ensuite, and two separate showers offer great passenger convenience.
The aft is customisable to suit your requirements, including an extra cabin for crew, or the option of a garage for your fully inflated tender with outboard.
Plenty of space and creature comforts plus minimal crew requirements means that there need be only one on board with sailing proficiency to treat your company to a fast, smooth and comfortable sailing experience.
Solaris have fine-tuned this exquisite vessel for 14 months to ensure that the Solaris 55 upholds the maker’s high standards of beauty and performance while making this the leading design for 16 meter yachts today.
