Dibley 55' Pilothouse Performance Cruising Yacht
Boat Name: Marilyn
Designer Kevin Dibley describes the Dibley 55' as a safe, easily driven hull with fast passage-making qualities. The hull incorporates a fine, vee-shaped entry that flattens out into a nice run aft. Moderate beam and a well-balanced hull volume distribution allow good load-carrying capacity and performance.
"This is an exciting yacht that will be perfect for those wanting a home away from home, with incredible comfort in the longer extended cruises," Dibley says.
When launched, Marilyn spent some time in NZ before cruising to the Pacific Islands for a couple of seasons. To date she has thousands of miles under her keel and plenty of memories for her owners.
