The new 56 LS is a premium-class design that will become part of Tiara's Luxury Sport (LS) series. She will be powered by four 600-hp Mercury Verado outboards and her projected top speed is over 55 mph.
This Brazilian build has big boat features in a compact 28’9” (8.76 m) footprint. The swim platform is oversized for sunning, watersports and entertaining (she has a grill and sink). There's a sunlounge forward and sleeping accommodation for four below.
With an exceptionally high freeboard and lots of flair plus a 21.5-degree transom deadrise, the SeaWell 290CC is intended for bluewater fishing. She’s more affordable than some in class and is built by a Brazilian company with over 15 years in the business.
The Nordic-style Nimbus W11 has a powered swim platform aft of the outboards, a convenient rarity. It also has a boarding ladder at the bow and a through-the-stem anchor and windlass. She accommodates four overnight.

Shipping a boat may seem daunting, but it’s not all that difficult. If you choose the right company for the job, it’s almost trouble-free. And, you might even save money over cruising her the same distance.
Whether your boat is small and slow or large and fast — or vice versa — an autopilot can make operating her easier, more efficient and more relaxing. Also, on long runs, you can probably save fuel with one. But remember — they're blind as a bat!
