2019 Rio Yachts 56' _{(17.07 m)} Colorado 56

Vessel Walkthrough:

Stepping aboard MARGO, the Rio Sports Coupé 56 immediately showcases the technical excellence, comfort, and innovative design that define the Colorado range. From the expansive hydraulic swim platform, which incorporates a tender garage and retractable barbecue, stairs lead to the generous aft cockpit—an area designed as the social heart of the yacht. Plush seating, modular tables, sunbathing space, and an electric sunshade create a flexible environment that easily transitions from alfresco dining to relaxed lounging, all protected by the hardtop while remaining open and airy.

A defining feature of the Colorado 56 is the seamless connection between exterior and interior spaces. The cockpit and main salon are separated by a large retractable glass partition that disappears into the ceiling when open, allowing the yacht to function as a true open platform, or closes to create a fully enclosed, climate-controlled environment for all-season cruising. Additional retractable glass side windows and a sliding glass sunroof further enhance ventilation, natural light, and flexibility, allowing the entire main deck to be tailored to conditions at the touch of a button.

Inside, the main salon is bright and refined, featuring a spacious dinette with elegant hi/low electric tables, marble countertops, a retractable television, and a double “floating” helm station fitted with Besenzoni electric helm seats. The helm offers excellent visibility through the expansive windshield and intuitive control via twin 17” Garmin multifunction touchscreens managing navigation, cameras, autopilot, radar, and GPS. Powered by twin Cummins diesel engines, MARGO delivers confident performance with a cruising speed around 24 knots and a top speed of approximately 28 knots, while wide side decks and stainless handrails provide safe, easy access forward.

Moving to the bow, a large sunbathing area offers an additional outdoor retreat with panoramic views and a strong connection to the sea. Below deck, the yacht continues to impress with generous volume and a thoughtfully optimized layout. The galley is positioned amidships, serving as a natural link between interior and exterior living spaces and benefiting from an atrium-style design with overhead glazing that floods the area with natural light. Accommodations are equally inviting, with spacious cabins, expansive hull windows, and refined Italian finishes that create an airy, comfortable atmosphere for owners and guests alike.

Throughout MARGO, functionality, versatility, and Italian craftsmanship blend seamlessly to create a yacht that feels both sporty and sophisticated. Designed for year-round enjoyment, MARGO is an exceptional choice for cruising and entertaining in premier yachting destinations worldwide.
