Marquis 50 delivers all numerous comforts in a slickly styled package. You enter the cockpit on either side, which is rare for a 50′ boat. As you head forward, the side walkways are a foot wide so you can move easily, and rails on the pilothouse are perfectly positioned. Out front, the starboard hatch needs a gas strut or cable to keep it from flopping against the windlass. Back in the cockpit, you can relax on the bench seat. The locker in the base is ideal for stashing fenders. Take a ride in the Marquis 50 and you, too, will see the light.
