With its plumb bow, fine entry, aggressive spray rails and long tinted windows, all set off by decorative steelwork, recessed LED lighting and dramatic flourishes in the mouldings, it\u2019s a treat to look at.\r\n\r\nIt\u2019s well arranged too. Ahead of the high-low aft platform, beneath the raised sunbed, the garage is big enough to swallow a 2.8m tender, which is not huge for a boat of this scale. But you do get an interesting choice of engines \u2013 either twin IPS-800s or (remarkably) a triple rig of ripsnorting 600hp V12 outboards.\r\n\r\nFurther forward, it\u2019s good to see that a beam just in excess of 15ft creates a lovely broad cockpit that is covered in its entirety by a full-width hardtop. That provides the shelter for a really sociable eight-man dining station with walkaround side decks and a pair of drop-down terraces to expand the aft deck. Ahead of that, a transverse galley, comprising two big parallel cabinets, provides all the ice, refrigeration, storage and work surface you could want; and beyond the central three-man helm, a set of aft-facing seats in the forepeak creates a neat little lunch zone at the leading edge of the island sunbed.\r\n\r\n[caption id=\"attachment_139066\" align=\"alignnone\" width=\"630\"]<img class=\"size-large wp-image-139066\" src=\"https:\/\/keyassets.timeincuk.net\/inspirewp\/live\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/18\/2026\/04\/MBY321.newboat_3.Astondoa577CoupeCockpit-630x354.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"630\" height=\"354\" \/> The broad hardtop provides great shelter for the day spaces[\/caption]\r\n\r\nThe helm is also a bit of a treat, courtesy of three raised offshore seats, carbon fibre detailing, a central helm position, a one-piece glass screen, an upper tier with three 16in plotters and a neat arrangement of throttles, thrusters and joystick, all at the right hand. And when you step down below, things could hardly be more Astondoa.\r\n\r\nThe central atrium features a really well appointed day heads to starboard and a large breakfast bar to port, with plenty of little extras, like a coffee machine and wine fridge, so you don\u2019t have to head up top to grab food and drink. There\u2019s also a lovely VIP cabin with a large lounge seat; and the owners midships cabin also feels very striking, thanks to a diagonal bed and all kinds of extravagance in the fit and finish.\r\n\r\nAll of this luxury does, however, cost a fair bit. While it goes from \u20ac1.35m plus tax, a more realistic price is likely to be closer to, or even a little beyond, the \u20ac2m mark.\r\n<h2>Astondoa 577 Coup\u00e9 specifications<\/h2>\r\n<strong>LOA:<\/strong> 50ft 11in (15.52m)\r\n<strong>BEAM:<\/strong> 15ft 1in (4.61m)\r\n<strong>ENGINES:<\/strong> Twin IPS-800s \/ triple 600hp V12s TOP\r\n<strong>SPEED:<\/strong> From 40 knots\r\n<strong>PRICE:<\/strong> From \u20ac1.35m ex VAT\r\n<strong>CONTACT:<\/strong> <a href=\"http:\/\/www.astondoa.com\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">astondoa.com<\/a>\r\n\r\n<hr \/>\r\n\r\n<h2><img class=\"alignright wp-image-131812 size-medium\" src=\"https:\/\/keyassets.timeincuk.net\/inspirewp\/live\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/18\/2024\/05\/MBY298.cover_-1-149x200.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"149\" height=\"200\" \/>If you enjoyed this\u2026.<\/h2>\r\n<blockquote>\r\n<div class=\"\"><em>Motor Boat &amp; Yachting is the world's leading magazine for Motoryacht enthusiasts.
