Description
The Santa Cruz 52 is a legendary design celebrated for its unique blend of offshore racing capability and fast cruising comfort. Built to excel in both coastal regattas and major offshore events like the Transpac, the SC52 continues to be a highly sought-after Grand Prix-level yacht.
Originally launched as "Marda Gras," this tall rig variant is hull #5 in the series and has remained under the care of the same knowledgeable, detail-oriented owner since new. With a proven race record across the Pacific Northwest, California, and offshore circuits, "Marda Gras" captures the essence of high-performance sailing.
The yacht is smartly equipped for cruising while maintaining a speed-focused configuration, striking a rare balance between comfort and competitiveness. Meticulously maintained to professional standards since delivery, she shows in exceptional condition inside and out, a testament to the quality of her ownership.
Whether you're looking for a spirited performance cruiser for coastal adventures or a proven offshore racer ready to compete, "Marda Gras" offers an outstanding opportunity. Fast, fun, and immaculately kept, this Santa Cruz 52 is a must-see for serious sailors seeking performance without compromise.
Manufacturer Provided Description
The Santa Cruz 52 features both speed and luxury. Her well thought-out interior has two large private staterooms each with double berths and a separate stall shower in one of the two heads. The large salon provides dining for seven and includes two roomy pilot berths. There is ample storage throughout the cabins. The teak and holly cabin sole, solid teak trim, and white-accented paneling combine to produce a warm yet light and airy environment.
Typical equipment on the first nine Santa Cruz 52's built include: three burner LPG stove with oven and broiler, 8 cu. ft. refrigerator - freezer. The wiring and plumbing systems are readily accessible, thoughtfully laid-out, and fully marked and identified. T
he Santa Cruz 52 is designed and engineered to be very strong with specifications well in excess of ABS Standards. Advanced technology has enabled designers and builders to produce yachts which are both strong and light, so it is no longer necessary to equate strength with weight. Every piece of furniture, every panel, every cabinet is fully and carefully bonded to the hull and deck, providing an integrated hull support structure.
The forward section of the hull includes a Kevlar collision mat and a watertight bulkhead. Other features add to the safety of the SC52. The Stability Index of 121 degrees indicates that this is a very stable and safe yacht. The large cockpit is secure, with substantial coamings, easy access through the companionway, and the ability to drain very rapidly through the open transom. The SC52 is organized so it can be sailed from the safety of the cockpit.
