Passport 485AC Specifications
""To step aboard a Passport Vista is to encounter an anachronism, of a sort. It's not that the boat is any way old fashioned in it's styling and in it's outfit, it's every bit as modern as any of it's contemporaries, but the philosophy behind the boat's design and the execution of the details hint at a time when sailors and shipwrights, not production engineers and accountants, determined the priorities by which a yacht was built.""Jeremy McGeary Cruising World Magazine
