The cockpit has a double helm station to optimise the visibility when healing. The spacious and generous aft cockpit is dedicated to relaxation, sunbathing and close access to the ocean.

In front of the helm station, under the arch, is the forward cockpit located with an additional sofa and table on the starboard side, which Jenneau refers to as the watch bench. On the port side you can find an exterior chart table with autopilot control. Jeanneau points out that the Yacht 55 offers even better sunbathing areas than a catamaran, as it also has huge sunbeds at the bow in front of the mast as well!
