Provided Description:
The Neptunus 56′ Flybridge should be inspected by anyone looking for a sleek Euro style Sedan Cruiser. This model offers sleek lines, great speeds and “North American” sized berths, spaces and designs. Perhaps the most important feature of this boat is that virtually all of her systems are North American built, parts easily obtained and familiar to the American market. MIDNIGHT LADY, being a 2006 model, she has the vastly enlarged flybridge and a full overhang for the aft deck seating. Reasonable time on her main engines. Priced attractively, she shows well inside and out.
WalkthroughThe Neptunus 56′ Flybridge offers three generous staterooms, two heads, a lower helm, on deck galley and sit down dining. With a generous use of high gloss cherry joinery and buff vinyl wall panels the interior is gorgeous. Unique deck plans below deck, main deck and flybridge make the most of her 56′ length. Boarding is from the hydraulic platform on a floating dock or over the gunnels on a fixed dock. The aft deck is fully shaded by the flybridge overhead. There is fixed seating on the teak decking. A curved stainless steel entry door leads to a salon with an L-shaped couch to port and matching love seat to starboard. Up two steps to the open port side galley and one more step to a dinette and lower helm station. Stairs from this area lead to the accommodations with the ensuite master amidships, a twin berth cabin to starboard and a Queen VIP forward. To port is a shard second head. The new style flybridge offers additional seating areas, a wet bar and a starboard side helm. SalonUpon entering from the Aft Deck of the 56′ Neptunus one finds a wide open Salon, Galley, Dinette and Helm area that blends together like no other mid 50′ Sedan Cruiser. The high gloss cherry joinery, buff colored wall coverings and slightly contrasting overhead is breathtaking. To port is an L-shaped settee with storage under upholstered in light beige Ultra Leather. Two sets of drapes cover the double windows both port and starboard. To starboard is an identically upholstered two person curved loveseat. Forward is a cabinet housing the built-in 32” Samsung LED TV, a huge improvement over earlier models.
