De Antonio D50 Coupe Video Review: Outdoor AC and Hidden 600s

By the YachtWay editorial deskUpdated October 2026Video walkthrough7 min read

The De Antonio D50 Coupe hides twin Mercury 600 outboards under a sunbed with ten cup holders. We started at De Antonio's service and design centre in Miami, walked the boat, then took her out. The cockpit has a U-shaped dining area, a galley and an outdoor AC, the hardtop has a glass roof that opens, and below deck there is a VIP cabin, a dry head and a full-beam lounge that becomes a bed. On our run she reached 40 knots (45.7 mph).

A day yacht with a living room

Lift the aft sunbed and the two 600s are right there, easy to service. We checked that the sunbed stays cool while the engines run, and we were told they do not overheat. The deck is flush from stern to bow, and a deep storage locker along the side holds foils, poles and floats. A jacuzzi at the bow is an option, filled from the sea in a few minutes.

Stern and hidden engines

The sunbed lifts to show the twin 600s. 02:25

The aft sunbed seats four with ten cup holders, and the engines live under it. A hydraulic swim platform is an option. This boat has a fixed one with a fold-down ladder.

  • Service.
    The hatch opens wide, so the 600s are easy to reach.
  • Storage.
    A deep side locker for foils, poles and floats.
  • Gates.
    On both sides for pets and kids.

Sea trial off Miami

At the helm on our sea trial. 29:00

We went out in a 1 to 1.5 ft chop. The enclosed windshield kept the wind off, and the bow stayed down for a clear view ahead.

  • Planing.
    From about 16 knots (18 mph).
  • Turns.
    Tight turns at 35 knots (40 mph).
  • Top speed.
    40 knots (45.7 mph) at 91 gallons an hour.
  • Cruise.
    31 knots (36 mph) at 59 gallons an hour.
  • Ride.
    Nothing rattled through the chop.
The verdict

The D50 Coupe is a day yacht with the space of a small cruiser. The hidden 600s keep the deck clean, the outdoor AC and the opening roof make the cockpit usable in Miami heat, and below there is a VIP cabin and a full-beam lounge that sleeps two more. On our run she reached 40 knots and cruised at 31 knots on 59 gallons an hour. It is a lot of boat for a weekend in the Bahamas.
