Post Launches
An All New 53 Convertible.
The design team at Post Yachts
spends a lot of time listening
at boat shows, owners' events
and to their dealers. So, when
requests for a model between the
current 50 and 56 footers capable
of accommodating two couples surfaced,
the concept for the new Post 53
was born. Through the design process,
strategic changes were made that
give the 53 a stylish new look,
enhanced performance and amenities
that are sure to please the most
discerning enthusiast.
