About
The Nauticat 525 is an evolution of the popular 515. The 525 is known as a “pilothouse sailing yacht” as opposed to a traditional motor sailor. This is an important distinction and one that we fully agree with having test sailed MERELLE with her owner. The Nauticat 525 retains the benefits of the strong heavy build but the Sparkman & Stevens designed hull allows her to perform well under sail. It should be noted that the hull was initially designed for Nautor Swan and then later was used by Nauticat.
MERELLE is a superb example of the 525 which has seen little use, as a result the interior joinery is in superb condition. She has seen recent investment including new paint, rig, sails and upholstery among other upgrades. Well equipped with a generator, water maker, reverse cycle air conditioning and independent diesel heating for those wishing to explore colder climates. She is the perfect liveaboard or yacht for long distance cruising and adventures. Lying in A Coruña, viewing is highly recommended and by appointment only. Do not hesitate to contact us for any additional information, photos or to arrange a viewing.
NOTABLE FEATURES
A hand laminated fibreglass construction with layers of mat multiaxial fibres and woven rowing. The longitudinal stringers, the engine bed and the transverse floor bearers stiffen the hull. All main bulkheads and other structural panels are bonded to the hull where appropriate. The engine bed has captive steel plates for the securing of engine mounts. The hull has been painted in Awlgrip light grey in 2024 with white boot stripes. The keel is a lead keel and is fixed by stainless steel bolts with double nuts and stainless steel internal backing plates.
DECK & SUPERSTRUCTURE
The deck and superstructure are an one-piece moulding, constructed entirely of hand laminated fibreglass with a white gelcoat surface. Rigidity is achieved with deck beams formed by the use of polyurethane foam. The pilothouse rood is a separate part. All surfaces including the pilothouse rood have an anti-slip finish. The anchor box on the foredeck has top access hatches. Six heavy duty cleats with adjacent chocks are employed for safe mooring of the vessel: two forward, two aft and two midships. All windows are mode of toughened safety glass fitted in allow frames. The guard rail is made of solid teak which is mounted on stainless steel stanchions. Boarding gates aft and starboard. An intermediate lifeline is also run between the toe and guardrail.
STEERING
The steering system is hydraulic with dual station controls; one in the pilothouse and one in the cockpit. The cockpit is enclosed with a binnacle column and the steering pump and no check valves to enable a direct feedback of the rudder pressure. Both controls are self-contained and connected in parallel. Acid proof rudder stock with bronze bearings. Upper bearing supplied with grease gun. Rudder is GRP. Emergency steering with a tiller connectable directly to the rudder stock.
