The 2005 Marquis 59 stands out in the 55–60’ flybridge class for the way it blends Italian style with American build quality. Styled by the Nuvolari-Lenard studio and built in Wisconsin, it delivers a look and feel many European competitors chase while retaining the robust systems, wiring, and serviceability U.S. owners love. That combination gives the 59 a “best of both worlds” appeal—sleek, modern lines outside and a stout, owner-friendly yacht underneath.
Performance and balance are strengths. With the desirable MTU Series 60 diesels (825 hp each), the 59 runs confidently in a range of conditions and posts real-world speeds that keep pace with or beat many same-size flybridges of the era—think high-20s to low-30s knots depending on load and sea state. Owners praise visibility from the upper helm and the boat’s comfortable ride on longer passages—exactly what you want in a family cruiser that also entertains well.
Her core specs stack up impressively: LOA about 59’2”, a broad 16’6” beam for volume and stability, and a moderate draft (≈4’7”–4’10”) that opens up more anchorages than many peers. Big-boat tankage—roughly 800 gallons of fuel, 200 gallons of water, and ~80 gallons holding—delivers the range and autonomy weekenders and island-hoppers expect. Dry weight around 63,000 lb underlines the solid, big-water feel.
Compared with other flybridge models in this class, the Marquis 59 gives you a “quiet luxury” interior and a genuinely practical layout. Fit and finish are upscale without being fussy; joinery, lighting, and sightlines feel timeless rather than dated or trendy. Systems access—electrical, plumbing, and machinery—tends to be better thought-out than many imported alternatives, which pays dividends at survey time and through years of ownership. (Marquis positioned this model specifically to elevate Carver’s pedigree with Italian design and higher-end execution.) Hull design and construction contribute to the confidence. The 59 rides on a modified-V form with a solid-glass bottom—reassuring for owners who see a mix of coastal chop, inlet slop, and longer passages. It’s a yacht that feels secure offshore yet nimble enough to back into a tight slip, especially with the common bow and stern thruster fit.
On the bridge, the Marquis distinguishes itself with abundant seating, a thoughtfully arranged helm, and protection from the elements under the hardtop/enclosure—comfort advantages that many rivals treat as options or execute less cohesively. At dockside or on the hook, the generous bridge and cockpit footprint simply entertain better than most 58–60 footers. Add it up and you get a 59-footer that out-punches typical peers on design pedigree, “big-water” feel, owner serviceability, and day-to-day livability—exactly why the 59 remains a sought-after model on the brokerage market.
