1996 Navigator 50 Classic

The Navigator 50 Classic is a premier raised-pilothouse motor yacht, renowned for its incredible interior volume and exceptional 360-degree visibility from the helm. Designed by Jule Marshall and built with the owner-operator in mind, this vessel offers a perfect balance of long-range cruising capability and live-aboard comfort.

• Expansive Salon: By extending the salon nearly to the full beam, the interior living space is maximized, offering a large settee and an open-concept feel.
• Gourmet Galley: The U-shaped galley is conveniently located on the pilothouse level, featuring ample storage, a serving counter, and easy access to the social areas.
• Performance SpecificationsEngines: Powered by twin Cummins 420 Diamond Series diesels (420 hp each).
