Steve Campbell’s Composites Constructions has unveiled the impressive new Cape50, a performance cruiser that blends racing pedigree with modern design and craftsmanship.
Campbell, a former ocean racer, has spent decades building specialist boats and carbon components for the marine and aeronautical industries, giving him an unrivalled understanding of how to make boats light, strong, and durable.
That experience is now clearly visible in the Cape50. Built for Australasian coastal conditions, the Cape50 has been designed to handle fast-changing weather, wind, and sea states. The plumb bow increases waterline length and interior volume, while delivering a fine, sharp entry that slices cleanly through the waves. A pronounced chine and muscular flare keep the decks dry, allowing owners to maintain speed and comfort when conditions turn rough. A flat planing area aft, combined with Volvo Penta IPS drives, ensures the Cape50 is fast, efficient, and stable both underway and at rest. Her Downeast-inspired tumblehome and reverse transom tie the design together with distinctive European flair. “The Cape50 reflects everything we’ve learned from years on the water,” says Campbell. “It’s built to perform, endure, and inspire confidence in real-world conditions.” The Cape50 represents the perfect meeting point of tradition, seaworthiness, and modern style, a true expression of down-under craftsmanship and passion for boating.
