The Passport 456, designed by the legendary Robert Perry, represents a refined evolution of the blue-water cruising ethos that defined the late 20th-century yachting industry. Introduced in the mid-1990s and built primarily at the King Dragon yard in Taiwan, the 456 was conceived as a high-performance passage maker that did not sacrifice the "furniture-grade" interior quality for which Passport Yachts is famous. As noted in editorial retrospectives by Cruising World, the 456 eventually served as the direct foundation for the Passport 470, which utilized the same hull mold but featured a modified, extended transom. The 456 remains a sought-after vessel for circumnavigators due to its hand-laid solid fiberglass hull and its ability to maintain high average speeds in varying sea states without punishing the crew.
