Description

The graceful, well-proportioned styling of the Symbol 56 Pilothouse makes this luxurious cruising yacht a standout wherever she goes. The Symbol is built on a low-deadrise hull with a wide 17-foot, 6-inch beam, deep prop pockets, and a solid fiberglass bottom. While Symbol offers buyers the ability to customize each yacht, the standard interior of the 56 includes a spacious salon with an L-shaped settee to starboard and entertainment center forward, a large pilothouse where the galley and dinette are located. Two Staterooms, two heads below. This is a modified King size berth with custom mattress and storage cherry cabinetry and quality furnishings highlight the interior. Very unique open layout. Custom ordered deleting the small port side cabin and moving the master head to that area. This allows a full beam master stateroom with double hanging lockers and drawer space. This arrangment also allowed for a separate washer and dryer unit to be installed in cabinets in the master stateroom. Bow Guest Cabin: Queen size berth with custom mattress and storage under bed. Ceder lined hanging lockers. Flat screen TV. S/S deck hatch with screen hatch with screens & opening ports. Accent rope lighting. Private entrance to head & oversized shower.

A staircase leads from the pilothouse to the flybridge with its wellpositioned helm and built-in lounge seating.
