1983 Amel Mango

This classic 1983 Amel Mango 52, currently located in Pula, Croatia, is a testament to Amel’s enduring design principles, offering unparalleled comfort and stability for bluewater cruising enthusiasts. Known for its resilience and ease of handling, this ketch-rigged yacht is equipped with durable, original features, making it ideal for long-range voyaging or coastal sailing alike. Its sturdy overhauled Perkins 80hp engine and Hurth transmission provide reliable performance, while the Side Power bow thruster enhances manoeuvrability, especially in tight marinas or challenging conditions.

Her onboard systems are designed to support extended cruising with minimal maintenance. With a robust 12v, 24v, and 220v electrical setup and recently replaced batteries, this vessel ensures consistent power. The Paguro generator offers a dependable 4kW backup, essential for the yacht's numerous domestic appliances, including dual fridges, a freezer, and even a coffee machine. The yacht’s tankage is generous, boasting 980 liters of fuel and 1,500 liters of freshwater capacity, while stainless-steel blackwater and greywater tanks ensure a cleaner environmental footprint. The accommodation layout features an aft ensuite cabin, a spacious saloon, and a forward cabin with a V-berth, all adorned with mahogany joinery and tasteful upholstery, making it both luxurious and practical for a small crew or family.

On deck, this Amel Mango 52 is equally impressive with its Electric furling genoa, Lewmar anchor windlass, and a full cockpit enclosure for all-weather protection. It’s further complemented by a Ripstar dinghy and 25hp outboard, ideal for exploration or trips ashore. Navigation is well-supported with a Furuno radar, Simrad autopilot, and onboard WLAN, making it a well-equipped and versatile cruiser. This classic Amel is ready to embark on its next adventure, combining the charm of traditional design with the reliability of a well-maintained vessel.

The condition or level of safety equipment on board is not to be negotiated on following survey. It is likely to be listed by most surveyors but is not structural or an integral working part of the vessel and is not to be used to further negotiate the price down after survey. We strongly suggest that for your own personal safety that when purchasing a yacht you provide new safety equipment rather than relying on second hand gear.

Should you become the new owner of this yacht then the responsibility to re-register or update official bodies for items such as EPIRB, VHF, MMSI or AIS becomes yours.
