1985 Symbol 51

A 1985 Symbol 51, this 51-foot motor yacht features the classic high-bow design and sweeping shearline typical of quality Taiwanese builders. Twin Caterpillar 3208 TA diesel engines deliver 750 horsepower, with cruising speeds around 13 knots and a maximum speed of 19 knots. An Onan diesel generator provides auxiliary power. The boat sits on a 15-foot beam and is constructed of fiberglass.

The layout accommodates two private staterooms, each with its own head and separate shower. A spacious salon opens through large windows and showcases warm teak flooring and interior trim. An enclosed sundeck with hardtop sits above, accessible via internal stairs. The aft cockpit provides direct water access and a door leading to the aft cabin.

A large flybridge with bimini and protective enclosure offers commanding visibility and outdoor space. The fuel tanks are newer installations, as are the canvas covers and engine start batteries, replaced in June 2024. The boat requires maintenance to return it to full condition, though the engines run and the core structure remains sound.
