This 2002 Legacy Yachts 52 is a classic Downeast cruiser built on a fiberglass hull with twin Caterpillar diesel engines producing 1,320 horsepower combined. At just over 51 feet in length with a 16-foot beam, she combines traditional Downeast styling with modern performance and seaworthy construction suited to extended cruising or full-time living aboard.
The interior is notably spacious for her class, with two cabins and two heads arranged to maximize livability. Natural light flows throughout, and the layout emphasizes open, airy accommodations with abundant storage. Above and below deck, the design balances comfort with practicality—wide walk-around side decks, strong helm visibility, and dual entertaining spaces in the flybridge and salon create both functionality and room to move.
The gelcoat underwent professional cosmetic restoration to address crazing typical of her vintage, with house and deck surfaces refinished and freshly painted. The owner has maintained and updated her consistently, keeping systems current and the boat in cruise-ready condition.
