Published: Friday, April 10, 2020
Burger Boat Company is proud to announce it has begun construction on its newest yacht, the Burger 50 Cruiser. Based on the success and popularity of the recently delivered Burger Cruisers, the Burger 50 Cruiser is a powerful and luxurious aluminum cruiser developed in conjunction with Vripack Naval Architects and features an exquisite interior designed by Luiz de Basto of De Basto Designs. The Burger 50 Cruiser is currently available for sale.
Potential owners have the opportunity to add their custom touches throughout the yacht’s interior and exterior, building on 
the quality finishes and artistically crafted details found on all of Burger’s yachts.
“This yacht will be a sparkling example of Burger’s shipbuilding heritage,” says Jim Ruffolo, President and CEO of Burger Boat Company. “The Burger 50 Cruiser is everything an owner is looking for in a yacht. Luxury, style, comfort, modern technology, and an heirloom to share with family and friends for a lifetime of adventures.”
The Burger 50 Cruiser is powered by twin 600hp Volvo Penta D8-IPS800 engines and incorporates Vripack’s revolutionary Slide Hull® design, providing her owner a cruising speed of 26 knots and a top speed of approximately 31 knots in comfort.
The interior, designed by De Basto Designs, will feature two ensuite staterooms, unobstructed views in the open salon/galley area, and exceptional exterior spaces for entertaining friends and family.
Burger owners, including the future owner of the new Burger 50 Cruiser, also have the option of joining Burger’s Burger Care® program. Burger Care® provides Burger owners with 24/7 shipyard support for their new Burger. From cleaning and dockage, to oil changes and engine overhauls, a Burger Care representative is available to help owners continue to enjoy limitless adventures in their new Burger yacht.
