Beneteau Oceanis 52
Description
The Beneteau Oceanis 52 is a brand-new addition to Beneteau's renowned Oceanis line of cruising sailboats, marking the debut of the 8th generation of this series. Launched in 2025, it replaces the popular Oceanis 51.1 (which was a bestseller in its category for six years) and builds on decades of innovation in offshore cruising yachts. Designed for long-distance blue-water sailing, the Oceanis 52 emphasizes a perfect balance of performance, luxury, comfort, and ease of handling, making it ideal for families, couples, or short-handed crews embarking on extended voyages. It was co-designed by Italian naval architect Roberto Biscontini (known for beamy, low-profile hulls with excellent sailing qualities) for the exterior and Nauta Design for the interiors and deck plan. The yacht made its world premiere at the Cannes Yachting Festival in September 2025 and is already nominated for the European Yacht of the Year 2026.
