Contest CONTEST 50 CS used

Well-appointed blue water cruising is redefined in this 2007 Contest 50 CS, a fiberglass vessel currently available in Italy. Maintained in excellent condition, this yacht has undergone a significant series of technical and aesthetic upgrades between 2025 and 2026. Notable improvements include a complete teak deck replacement, new standing rigging, and a bowsprit installation, ensuring the vessel is ready for immediate departures. Technical reliability has been a priority for the current owners. The engine has received a full service, including the revision of injectors, heat exchanger, and the installation of new silent blocks, shaft, and bushings. The hydraulic system has been fully inspected, and the vessel now features a dual diesel filtration system. For off-grid autonomy, the boat is equipped with a Mastervolt Whisper 6 generator and three large 24V solar panels installed on the coachroof in 2026. Furthermore, all batteries were replaced in 2025, and all bronze valves and through-hull fittings are new. Accommodation on board includes two spacious cabins and two bathrooms, providing a comfortable environment for long-distance voyages. On-deck functionality is enhanced by a new Bimini and Sprayhood (2026), as well as a 100-meter stainless steel anchor chain. The sale includes a Williams Jet tender with only 10 hours of operation, alongside new seasonal covers for both winter and summer protection. The underwater hull also received an epoxy treatment in 2026. This listing represents a VAT-paid opportunity for buyers seeking a high-quality, comprehensively refitted sailing yacht. Given the extent of recent mechanical and structural work, this boat serves as a turnkey option for those prioritizing technical peace of mind. Comprehensive documentation, including a full service history, photo gallery, and video tour, is available upon request.
