Is an enclosed bridge ACTUALLY better? | Maritimo M50 Tour & Review

Join Jack Haines on YachtBuyer for a full yacht tour of the Maritimo M50, a 15.88m (52.1ft) enclosed flybridge motor yacht making its US debut. This owner-operator yacht runs twin Volvo Penta D13-800 engines on shaft drive, delivering around 800hp per side, and sits at the entry point of Maritimo’s M-Series range. In this walkthrough, Jack takes you through what makes this model different, from its offshore focus to its two-cabin layout and practical design approach. On deck, the Maritimo M50 is all about usable space. The aft cockpit is built as a proper working and social area, with a transom module that includes a grill, sink and fridge, plus direct access to a large lazarette. The hydraulic bathing platform extends the space at anchor, and the cockpit itself is well protected with plenty of shade. Wide side decks make it easy to move forward, while the foredeck keeps things simple with space for sunpads and a clean anchoring setup. Inside, the layout changes direction slightly. There’s no lower helm, so the main saloon is given over entirely to living space, with a large seating area and a galley split across both sides with a central island. Storage is a clear priority here, with a large pantry, multiple fridge and freezer options, and a layout that feels more like a small apartment than a typical 50ft boat. The enclosed flybridge above becomes the main driving and secondary living space. Accommodation is set up with two cabins rather than three, which frees up more room where it matters. The full-beam owner’s cabin sits amidships with strong headroom, generous storage and a large ensuite, while the forward cabin can convert between a double and twins. There’s also additional sleeping space available in the saloon and flybridge. This is a luxury yacht designed for couples or owner-operators who want space, access and long-distance capability rather than maximum cabin count.
