She's a lovely craft, love all the colours and finishes. It is amazing how much they can cram into a 52' yacht. I like the really large access door to the engine room for us larger bodies.
The space for just 52 feet is amazing. Thanks for the review. You will reach the 5000 subs soon. Good luck. Like your logo and the used refreshing blue
I like the layout. I'd just split the VIP into 2 smaller cabins and use the twin bed cabin as a guest room since the twin beds can be put together. Love the forward owner's suite and the good sized fridge in the galley.
Hi Jack, I am enjoying watching your videos. Quick question: did you, by any chance, tour the Leopard 40 Powercat or the Xquisite 40 Powercat at MIBS? Keep up the good work!
Hi Alex, I didn’t see either of the boats at Miami I’m afraid but we have a special test of the Leopard PC40 planned in the near future so keep an eye out for that - Jack
Great Presentation 👍 Absolute did it again with elegant italian style and clever use of space. Expensive yacht though at 1,34 € mln compared to 1,19 € mln for the Azimut 53 Fly which has wider beam at 4,95 meter ( vs. 4,67 meter for Absolute ) and longer range at low speed ( 2400 L of fuel vs 1800 for Absolute ) not to mention higher standards of wood, fabrics and fit/finish at Azimut. Best strategy for yacht buyer ? Go for the 56 Fly instead with only 15% of price increase compared to the 52 Fly 🙃
Azimut use Alpi wood (as do many boat builders) which is compressed board that is laminated. No side door at the helm so more difficult to sail single handed.
Princess boats are a lot better quality than absolute. Absolute are a lot cheaper materials and quality than princess. I like absolute but they're pricey too.
@@brianmiller6443I’m not so sure that’s the case anymore. Absolute has come a long way in recent years. I was actually quite unimpressed with a new Princess I saw. Absolute are doing better layouts in my humble opinion.
Spare cabin for overnight use, translation 'Where I would put my mother in law if I owned this yacht' lol. I would stick my teenager in there, but he would request it himself anyways. Love Absolutes. Not a Galeon mind you which is my ultimate favorite, but Absolute is always my #2 choice. Especially that 64' Pathfinder with the rear beach club or cabin with the Mercedes style air vents and the mini fridge. It's awesome. Azimut is too much design, Sirena is too sparse, Sunseeker is too expensive. Fairline, Horizon, Absolute, Galeon..yeah
I agree with much of what you say about the different brands. What do you reckon to Pearl? £1.3m + VAT for the basic 62. An awful lot of boat for the money.
@@sirmurf I forgot Pearl. I like those too. Probably better interior than Fairline but what I like about Fairline is the reverse chine they use and that prevents hull slap so they are really quite. But I'm a big fan of Kelly Hoppen interiors and she does all of Pearl's design work. Everything in a Pearl is laid out with purpose and gracefullness. There is subtlety in design that creates consistent flow. What I don't like is that they lack storage space and are noisy. They use solid engine mounts instead of rubberized cork or just rubber. You get a fair bit of NVH on them. But a stunning yacht all the same. And for the price they are pretty nice, plus if you start out on a 62', you can grow into a larger yacht within that brand. Sorry I talk too much. Lol. What are your favorites?
that transom door for the anemic crew cabin looks super flimsy. and a cew cabin on a 52 is just silly. kindly fit that space our as storage or with scuba tank racks and a dive compressor.

What a cracking boat. They certainly know how to use space wisely and I love the lower helm 👍🏻
Love the way you presenting Jack , very informative and brilliant boat to buy!well done Jack 👍🏻
Thanks Bobby, appreciate that! - Jack
Your presentation is as usual very informative and well executed. I find this boat very interesting. Thank you Jack Haines!
Many thanks! - J

Great stuff as usual jack most enjoyable lovely boat
Helm station door is so smart…and solar panels…perfect…drop down windows are beautiful….
Excellent as usual!
love this boat, I am a big fan of owner cabin up front.
Works well, doesn’t it?
What a great boat and fantastic value too especially compared to the new princess 55. And finally another cracking review by Jack and the team.
Thanks Matthew 👍

I like the main bedroom bed facing the front of the boat, rather then cramming it in the front.

The 52 might cause the 56 a problem, that’s for sure!
Nice review of a beautiful little yacht! Very little argument with that one!
Thanks, glad you liked it!
I looooove this boat. Just hope they can option her with the 725 Hp engines.
Very impressive 👍❤️🇬🇧
I love it.
I hope you can open that crew cabin from the inside. It should have a way of letting other's know that it is occupied.
Very good
Absolute are building some great boats, Princess, Sunseeker etc need to look to their laurels, if only a UK dealer would take them on.
Princess boats are a lot better quality than absolute. Absolute are a lot cheaper materials and quality than princess. I like absolute but they're pricey too.

Believe theres now uk dealers
Yeh, Approved boats have taken them on within the last few weeks.@@SeanSoraghan
Replace twin beds with treadmill and bike machines…..Sunseaker 3…😊

English builders could learn a lot from this design instead of the same old layout,s.
I think English company,s should take note of the layout, save doing same old thing.
Have you left MBAY?
Yes indeed! - Jack
why is it called a 52 when it's clearly closer to a 55 footer?
that transom door for the anemic crew cabin looks super flimsy. and a cew cabin on a 52 is just silly. kindly fit that space our as storage or with scuba tank racks and a dive compressor.
That’s an option if you don’t have crew. You can keep the bathroom, too, which is quite handy.
Appears to be low end quality press wood and laminate. A floating winnebago. Nice appearance cheap parts
