SEAHORSE 52 (SH52) FRP TRAWLER YACHT

Our Seahorse 52, 50' plus a 2' built- in swim/dive/boarding platform, is a pilothouse design with a large main saloon aft. By special order 2’ can be added to the swim platform., side walkway be installed on wide body w/o walkway.

An optional flybridge is available for this boat.

Re interior the purchaser can select two queen sized sleeping cabins, or the forward cabin can be arranged as bunk cabin w/ desk and seat.

There is a large lazarette storage area with a watertight bulkhead aft of the generator work-shop room. Forward of the workshop is the engine room which, in the twin engine versions, has almost 6 feet of stand-up head room.

Single or twin marine diesel engines are our standard providing good 7 to 9 knot cruise capabilities and a 11 knot top. The Seahorse 52 (SH52) is a full keel, semi-displacement, round chine hull.

It is able to exceed its 9 knot hull speed by a several knots and is very fuel efficient in the normal 7 to 9 knot speed range.

We have delivered some 34 boats of this model and feedback from owners has allowed the Seahorse 52 (SH52) to evolve into a great passagemaker with many unique features not found on competitors’ boats. For example:

1) Our 900 gallon three tank fuel system incorporates a fuel polishing system and a priming pump for safety.

2) Tank venting and filling lines are designed to almost make it impossible to spill any fuel overboard. (Considering oil spill penalties these days we are sure it won't be long before our system will be copied by others.)

3) An 8KW toroidal isolation transformer is standard for electrolysis protection as well as allowing 220 and 110 volts service in the boat and dual voltage dock input.

4) All inlet thru-hulls are located in one sea chest to cut the number of holes in the hull.

5) Our dash safety Systems Monitor uses visual and audio warnings to tell the person on watch the status of every system in the boat including high engine room temperature, high bilge water, engine water flow, and any pump running.

6) Our unique "log knocker" prop protecting skeg is great for areas with a lot of logs or debris in the water.

7) A full stand up workbench and engine room (twin engines) in a 52 foot boat!

Interior is of teak which is good looking and durable for luxury yachts. All windows have powder-coated aluminum frames with screens and the pilothouse windshields are 10MM thick. Feel free to ask if you want to know more information.
