A sophisticated 50' flybridge motor yacht designed for the days that deserve a little more.

About the 50' Prestige
Tampa Bay looks different from the flybridge.
The Prestige 500 was designed around the way people actually want to spend time aboard. Her signature flybridge creates an expansive open-air entertaining space above, while the main deck connects the aft cockpit, galley and salon on one easy level. Panoramic windows bring the water into the interior, and the full-beam owner's suite below adds the kind of privacy and comfort normally associated with a much larger yacht.
For Well Played Editions, that translates into options. Host clients upstairs with Tampa Bay as the backdrop. Settle into the cockpit for lunch. Cool off inside without disappearing from the experience. Or simply claim a flybridge lounge and let the skyline, bridges and open bay become the day's scenery.
Meeting at the Gandy Boat Ramp gives this yacht a distinctly Tampa identity. Instead of beginning on the Gulf beaches, the experience starts on the Tampa side of the bay and opens directly into Old Tampa Bay - a beautiful setting for city-side cruising, Davis Islands, waterfront views and longer Tampa Bay itineraries when time and conditions allow.

Why we chose this yacht
Because sometimes the yacht should be part of the occasion.
The Prestige 500 brings a different level of entertaining to the Well Played Editions fleet. She's large enough to feel substantial the moment guests arrive, but her layout keeps the experience warm and social rather than formal. The flybridge gives the group an incredible outdoor gathering space, while the main deck makes food, drinks and conversation flow naturally between the cockpit, galley and salon.
We especially like her for Tampa. From the Tampa side of the bay, she can become a floating alternative to the city's usual corporate and social venues - a place for clients, teams, families and friends to connect with the skyline and bay around them.
She's refined without asking anyone to behave like they're in a showroom. Shoes can come off. Music can go on. Champagne can be poured. That's our kind of luxury.
A day aboard
Your day begins at the Gandy Boat Ramp in Tampa. Guests step aboard, the city starts to feel farther away, and someone inevitably heads straight upstairs to the flybridge. From there, Old Tampa Bay opens in front of you.
Cruise along the Tampa side of the bay, take in waterfront homes and the Davis Islands area, or simply let the captain find the right stretch of open water while lunch and drinks settle into their own rhythm. On longer outings, the itinerary can stretch farther across Tampa Bay when charter length, weather and conditions allow.
The beauty of the Prestige is that the destination doesn't have to do all the work. The yacht itself becomes the experience. Lunch can happen in the cockpit. Conversation moves upstairs. Someone retreats to the cool salon. Then everyone finds their way back to the flybridge when the light begins to change.
As Tampa starts glowing in the distance, pour one more glass and let the ride back to the ramp become part of the evening. No conference room. No crowded restaurant. Just your people, the city and Tampa Bay from the best seat in the house.
Life, Well Played.
