Overview:
A truly great yacht is so much more than the sum of its parts. It achieves a delicate balance of style, sophistication, performance, safety and comfort---everything seamlessly working together—integrated into one cohesive system..
The Stevens Custom 53 is such a vessel ---an uncompromising shorthanded, long-range cruising yacht designed by Robert H. Perry N.A. in collaboration with the Stevens Design Team. She incorporates over 200 years of combined single-handed cruising , racing and live aboard experience with the latest innovations in technology, performance and comfort-all without sacrificing simplicity , safety or style.
The new Stevens Custom 53 is the evolution of over 325 vessels designed and built carrying the Stevens name. She is the result of our quest for the ultimate second home---a modern shorthanded cruiser that is as comfortable in the Caribbean, Sea of Cortez or San Juan Islands as our land-locked luxury home.
