Overview
"I want a 52-foot day yacht that drives like a supercar — carbon everywhere it matters, a Seakeeper, joystick docking, and a cabin I can actually sleep in."
Who this boat is for
Owners who already drive serious cars and want the same feeling on water — a sub-2-tonne-per-metre carbon dayboat that out-handles every fibreglass 50 on the dock.
Hisham's take
The SAY 52 is built entirely from carbon fibre — hull, deck and structure — by SAY Carbon Yachts in Germany. Twin Volvo Penta 6.2L V8s push 860 HP through Z-drives with joystick docking, sending the boat to ~45 knots while still cruising in genuine comfort thanks to a Seakeeper gyro and a luxury day-cruising layout (cabin, head, AC, JL Audio). It is one of the few yachts in this size class engineered around weight first — the result is supercar-grade handling, range and economy that nothing in fibreglass at 52 feet can match.
