Murcia, Spain – Polish flag – VAT-inclusive price – EU VAT paid, supporting documentation available
DESCRIPTION
1980 AMEL MANGO 52, a bluewater cruising ketch designed by Henri Amel and built by the renowned French shipyard AMEL, recognised for the strength of its sailing yachts and their suitability for offshore passages.
With an overall length of 15.80 metres, solid GRP construction, ketch rig and protected centre cockpit, the Mango 52 is a genuine ocean-going cruising yacht, designed for long-distance passages and comfortable living aboard throughout the year.
This particular yacht has benefited from substantial technical upgrades, especially in 2025, including complete replacement of the standing rigging, new sails, installation of a 5 kW Fischer Panda generator and recent B&G navigation electronics.
Its 24 V electrical system, combined with a substantial lithium battery bank, solar panels and a 100 l/h watermaker, provides an attractive level of autonomy for extended cruising.
The yacht retains the traditional accommodation qualities associated with AMEL yachts of this generation: two separate cabins according to the original layout, a spacious saloon, generous storage, well-preserved interior woodwork and a private aft owner's cabin.
The fully enclosed cockpit, air conditioning, central heating, new electric toilets and washing machine make the yacht suitable for comfortable year-round living, whether cruising the Mediterranean or undertaking longer offshore passages.
Described by her owner as ready to sail, this AMEL Mango 52 offers an interesting opportunity for sailors looking for a classic, robust and upgraded bluewater cruising yacht.
