The Taswell 56 is a cutter-rigged sailboat designed by Bill Dixon and built by Ta Shing Yacht Building in Taiwan from 1990 to the present. It features a fin keel with a rudder on a skeg, measures 17.0 meters LOA, has a 5.0-meter beam, a 2.3-meter draft, and displaces 21,999 kg. The design prioritizes offshore capability and predictable motion at sea, with a solid fiberglass hull and robust structural grid. These yachts offer a deep cockpit and functional, secure interiors, contrasting with modern wide-body cruisers that emphasize interior volume.5:37 Aboard *Lady K Sailing*, the Taswell 56 is noted as a high-quality, offshore-capable alternative to more expensive brands like Oyster, often listing for significantly less than an Oyster 56.0:52 This price difference allows owners to invest in refits or new systems, though prospective buyers should anticipate standard maintenance for older vessels, including potential teak deck issues and legacy wiring or plumbing.7:28 Aboard *Sailing Sunday*, a Taswell 56 undergoing mid-construction repairs in St. Augustine, Florida, was considered but rejected due to failed cockpit drains that caused interior flooding and steep companionway stairs.9:17
