Defined by an era when exterior profile design reigned supreme over internal volume, this 1965 Feadship Van Lent & Zoonen 52' represents a unique piece of Dutch shipbuilding heritage. Built at the prestigious Van Lent yard in De Kaag, this steel motor yacht maintains an original aesthetic that prioritizes classic lines. The vessel is powered by twin 125 hp Mercedes OM-352 diesel engines with 3000 hours of operation, offering a cruising speed of 8 knots and a maximum speed of 11 knots.
This used boat is designed for the enthusiast who values authentic patina over modernized refits. The layout includes an owner’s cabin aft with an ensuite bath, a central saloon, a functional dinette with a galley, and a forward guest cabin featuring twin V-berths with a second bathroom. While the deck was renewed in the Netherlands in 2008 and original ceiling details have been updated, the yacht currently requires exterior paintwork and interior upholstery renewals to reach its full potential.
Technical equipment onboard includes a 7 kW Whisper generator, inverter, shore power connection, and an electric bow thruster for maneuverability. Navigation and communication suites feature a 2007 Raymarine C120 GPS/Plotter, radar, echo sounder, SSB, and iCom VHF. For tender operations, the boat is equipped with a Dell Quay Dory paired with a 25 hp Evinrude outboard and dedicated davits.
Currently located in the Tyrrhenian Sea, this yacht is suitable for collectors and restorers who appreciate historical originality. A recent survey is available upon request to provide detailed insight into the vessel's condition. The vessel is represented by an agency based on Via Monte Cadria, 135; please note that a 5% agency commission applies.
