Above: the fore deck area is quite unique and provides you
with a bow rider type seating area. also, the cantius 50 has
recessed side decks, high rails and cabin side handles for
securely moving around the boat.
Below: the optional awning over the deck lounge.

and the IPS drives are an important part of that. The
Cantius 50 has Volvo Penta IPS 600s which are twin 435 hp
diesels driving forward facing, counter-rotating prop sets on
each drive with electrically controlled steering, joystick docking and frankly, impressive performance and handling.
As you come aboard the boat, you simply walk up to the
substantial and beautifully made stainless steel frame door,
unlock it and get ready to go. While the engines take a
minute or two to warm up, you can take off the lines and
using the joystick docking control, move confidently out of
your slip and away from the docks.
When you arrive at the anchorage, the hydraulic swim
platform can be lowered right into the water and Cruisers
has designed a brilliant staircase that deploys as the platform

goes down, making it simple to step back up to the boat after
swimming. Also, the cockpit has a hand-held shower to rinse
off after a swim in saltwater.
The stern is really your teak beach and living area.
Cruisers have equipped the Cantius 50 with a Kenyon electric transom grill and refreshment area. There is a wet bar in
the cockpit along with lots of storage and drink holders and
the test boat had the optional icemaker. Get out there and
grill dinner while others relax on the big wraparound cockpit
seat, or prepare food and serve drinks from the galley.
One of the most popular features of Cantius models is
that the U-shaped galley is located up against the port side
and aft bulkhead. The big sheet of bulkhead glass lowers
electrically in seconds, making the counter a serving area.
