The Fleming 55 has been produced every year since 1986, and it just keeps getting better
In the early 1980s, after 25 years as a production engineer at Grand Banks, Tony Fleming set out to design and build a motoryacht of his own. The British-born U.S. citizen knew exactly what he wanted: A low-profile design with a fine forward entry and a dedicated pilothouse that could cruise efficiently on a twin-engine semi-displacement hull and run in the high teens when the extra speed was necessary.
Thirty-six years later, the Fleming 55 continues to be built at the same Taiwanese yard and to the same rigorous standards that Fleming insisted on in 1985.
