Description
1983 Amel Mango 52 – Classic Bluewater Cruiser in Croatia
This 1983 Amel Mango 52, lying in Pula, Croatia, reflects the timeless quality and seaworthiness of Amel yachts. Built for safety and comfort, this ketch-rigged cruiser offers easy handling and excellent stability. It is well-suited for both long-distance cruising and relaxed coastal sailing.
Power comes from an overhauled Perkins 80hp engine with a Hurth transmission, delivering strong and reliable performance. In addition, a Side Power bow thruster improves maneuvering in tight harbors and crosswinds. Her electrical system is equally robust, combining 12v, 24v, and 220v circuits with recently upgraded batteries. Moreover, a Paguro 4kW generator provides dependable backup for extended voyages. This supports modern comforts such as twin refrigerators, a freezer, and even a coffee machine.
Tankage is generous, with 980 liters of fuel and 1,500 liters of freshwater. Furthermore, stainless-steel blackwater and greywater tanks ensure clean, responsible cruising. Below deck, the interior is warm and inviting with rich mahogany joinery and tasteful upholstery. The layout features a spacious aft ensuite cabin, a welcoming saloon, and a forward V-berth. As a result, it offers a versatile and comfortable living space for a family or small crew.
On deck, the yacht is equipped for both safety and ease of use. An electric furling genoa, Lewmar anchor windlass, and full cockpit enclosure provide comfort in all conditions. In addition, a Ripstar dinghy with 25hp outboard ensures easy access ashore. Navigation is reliable, with Furuno radar, Simrad autopilot, and onboard WLAN giving confidence offshore.
This Amel Mango 52 blends classic design with careful maintenance. Above all, it is a proven and well-equipped yacht, ready to carry her next owner on new adventures.

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.
