Boats.com Perry Design Review, August 25, 2000:
"Let's add 9 feet, 3 inches of DWL and 11,000 pounds of displacement to the Oyster 485 and give it to British designer Bill Dixon to manipulate. The result is Ta Shing's Taswell 56. A quick look at the interior will tell you that the additional LOA really helps spread out the interior components."

"Fiberglass decks are fun and challenging to design. They are exercises in sculpture, and in maintaining enough draft angle to surfaces to release them from the mold. The 56 is a beautiful example of deck sculpture. The effect is almost that of a flush-deck boat, with a small, raised doghouse. The trunk starts forward as a low wedge that features a sunken area forward of the mast. The raised portion of house aft allows the cockpit to sink into the structure and not look piled-on, wedding cake-style."

"The rig is drawn as a cutter. The SA/D ratio of this design is 16.71. While mainsheet traveler placement is always a battle on aft cockpit cruising boats, it is simplified on these center cockpit boats. End-of-boom sheeting is by far the best way to go."
