Description
The spacious and cleverly designed transom invites ease of access to the water, while the twin helm stations and ergonomic cockpit ensure superior control and exceptional manoeuvrability, even in challenging conditions. Below deck, the 54 DS reveals a luxurious, light-filled interior, with panoramic views that bring the surrounding seascape into the heart of the vessel. The finest materials and craftsmanship define every detail, from the high-end finishes to the flexible cabin configurations, ensuring the perfect balance of comfort and functionality for long-range cruising or social entertaining.
"Cadence" was purchased while stored at Nanny Cay in the British Virgin Islands, a premier boatyard known for its comprehensive services ideal for maintaining cruising sailboats. In 2021, the mast of "Cadence" was removed for recoating, and it received new lighting and wiring. During this period, Wickhams Cay undertook the replacement of the standing rig. The following year, significant upgrades were made, including the installation of solar panels and Victron battery-management systems, accompanied by a new set of Life Line AGM house batteries. Additionally, a new Dodger Bimini was acquired from Quantum.
In 2023, the mainsail was replaced with a Blue Water main from Doyle, which also conducts annual inspections and necessary repairs on all sails. The upgrade trajectory continued into 2024 with a new suite of Raymarine instruments, enhancing navigation with an autopilot controller, tri-data, and speed/depth features. Looking ahead to 2025, "Cadence" has undergone a major refit of its teak deck along with minor hull paint repairs, ensuring that it remains in pristine condition for future voyages.
