Tayana 55
5 / 27 - score 59%
The Tayana 55 is a 55.0ft cutter designed by Peter Beeldsnijder and built in fiberglass by Ta Yang Yacht Building Co. Ltd. between 1982 and 1991.
65 units have been built.
The Tayana 55 is a moderate weight sailboat which is a reasonably good performer. It is stable / stiff and has an excellent righting capability if capsized. It is best suited as a bluewater cruising boat. The fuel capacity is good. There is an excellent water supply range.
This boat has an average score but ranks in the top quarter. It seems difficult to do much better. It is one of the best possible tradeoff for this request.
