2003 Neptunus Flybridge Motor Yacht

This 56' Neptunus "Flybridge Model" offers more than any other similar size yacht with her three generous staterooms, two heads, a lower helm station, an on-deck galley and dining options forward of the galley or on the flybridge.

The interior has the perfect blend of high gloss cherry joinery, padded crème Ultra Leather paneling, ultra suede fabrics with many relaxing areas and large cedar lined closets are throughout this yacht.

The deck plan of the main deck, below deck and flybridge are unique only to Neptunus designs. The Neptunus Space planning is excellent and needs to be seen to be appreciated.

Upon entering the aft deck, with built in seating, a hi-lo and table and port and starboard access to the side decks, the same deck level Salon is entered via a centerline door. There is seating to both port and starboard with the full galley two steps up on the port side. Forward of the galley is ample dinette seating to port with the lower helm to starboard. Just aft of the lower helm are the curved steps to the accommodations below. The Master is aft with an ensuite head. Forward to starboard is a twin lower berth guest cabin. All the way forward is the VIP. The shared guest head is to port opposite the guest cabin.

CAY LOU is a very nice example of the 56’ Neptunus Motor Yacht line. Built in Canada she is comprised of all North American parts that are easy to service and readily available.

Having more updates and updated equipment than many other boats of her age, she is ready to go!

Her high gloss cherry interior presents very we. Three staterooms, two heads, a lower station and an open galley arrangement make her a favorite with the American market 

Fresh engine rebuilds (Fall 2026) by Smith & Wick Marine Diesel, Jupiter, FL.

Just compounded and waxed from the rub rail up, shows great.

See notes on recent upgrades… It’s turnkey and ready to cruise now! Impressive!
