When you consider that Australia is the world’s largest island, it comes as no surprise it’s home to the world’s finest long-range cruising motoryachts like the Maritimo C53 Sports Cabriolet. After all, with a coastline measuring almost 32,000 nautical miles in length, and facing the Indian, Southern and Pacific oceans’, it’s the perfect place to test the skills of a boat builder. For Australia’s Bill Barry-Cotter, that test has continued for 40 years, making him Australia’s most awarded boat builder in the process. And this lifelong passion has culminated in the launch of Maritimo, a collection of luxury motoryachts without peer. In fact, nothing on water looks, feels or performs quite like the Maritimo C53 Sports Cabriolet. It simply manages to be both timeless and ahead of its time. It truly is oceans apart.
