Origins · Sorrento, Victoria
In the historic coastal town of Sorrento, where deep blue water meets the Mornington Peninsula, the vision for Sorrento Fleet was born.
A legacy on the water
Sorrento has always been defined by the sea. Once a haven for shipwrights and fishermen, the town carries a proud tradition of maritime craftsmanship, practical knowledge and lives shaped by the water.
From that heritage, Sorrento Fleet emerged: a modern Australian boatbuilder dedicated to honouring the past while shaping the future of premium boatbuilding.
The place behind the name
The Sovereign 50 reflects the character of its birthplace: confident without excess, elegant without pretence and designed for people who genuinely live around the water.
Classic proportions acknowledge the timber vessels that once worked and cruised these waters, while contemporary naval architecture, composite construction and intelligent systems create a vessel made for the way owners cruise today.
We honour the artisans of the past while embracing the aspirations of the future.
