Spirit 52 © Spirit Yachts Length overall: 15.90 m or 52 ft 2 in Length waterline: 11.20 m or 36 ft 8 in Beam: 3.40 m or 11 ft 2 in Draft: 2.20 m or 7 ft 3 in Displacement: 8,800 kg or 19,400 lb Engine: 40 hp Upwind sail area: 92.90 m² or 1,000 sq ft Cabins: 2 Berths: 4-6 persons The Spirit 52 represents a magnificent milestone for the British shipyard, debuting as a highly successful racing monohull designed by founder Sean McMillan to blend a timeless aesthetic with raw competitive performance. The hull is handcrafted using wood-epoxy composites with robust cedar planking overlaid by rich mahogany ringframes and veneers to maximize structural strength while keeping displacement exceptionally low. Optimized with a sleek underwater profile and minimal wet surface area, the platform is built to catch light winds efficiently and can confidently reach a top speed of sixteen knots when pushing hard downwind under an asymmetric spinnaker. The deck arrangement is explicitly engineered for fast short-handed management or precise crew coordination, leaving all essential running rigging led cleanly aft to a secure cockpit layout. Equipped with a high-aspect fractional rig, advanced carbon fiber spars, and nitronic rod rigging, the vessel delivers immense stability and fine-tuned rudder feedback when heavily heeled under a large sail plan. Below deck, the space-efficient arrangement features white bulkheads contrasted by solid wooden joinery to establish a bright, sophisticated coastal manner atmosphere that comfortably accommodates up to six guests across two private en-suite cabins and the main saloon. This custom performance masterpiece provides a premier choice for serious yachtsmen seeking racing pedigree, commanding a market value of 1.5 million US dollars. #Spirit52 #ClassicSailing #WoodenYacht #HarbourMasters
