Is the 2003 Pershing 52 for Sale?

Yes, this 2003 Pershing 52 is currently offered for sale through its listing broker. The yacht is located in Athens, Greece, making it easy to inspect and use for Mediterranean cruising. Because a yacht like this tends to hold appeal among performance-oriented buyers, availability of a comparable example in similar condition may be limited.
 

For buyers, availability is less important than the condition of the specific boat. Engine hours, MAN service records, Arneson surface drive condition, hull condition, electronics, and interior finishes should all be reviewed. A well-maintained example with complete records can have a very different ownership profile from another Pershing 52 that has deferred maintenance.
 

2003 Pershing 52 Price

The asking price for this 2003 Pershing 52 should be confirmed directly with the listing broker, as pricing for high-performance sport yachts varies with condition, equipment, and documented service history. A yacht like this tends to hold appeal among performance-oriented buyers, which can support resale value when records are complete. Asking prices are subject to change and should not be treated as confirmed transaction values.
 

The purchase price is only part of the budget for a 52-foot sport yacht. Running a 52-foot Pershing with twin 1050 HP MAN engines means fuel burn and maintenance are real ownership costs, especially at 40-plus knots. Budget for regular surface-drive service and engine-hour-based maintenance. Insurance and berthing in Athens also need to be factored into the annual cost, so request a full history before making an offer, along with a professional survey, sea trial, and general upkeep.
 

Performance and Propulsion

This Pershing 52 is powered by Arneson surface drives paired with twin MAN 1050 HP engines for effortless 40-knot cruising, with a top speed of 48 knots giving this luxury yacht true performance-boat character. The MAN 1050 HP engines provide strong power output, and the Arneson surface drives give the boat the sharp handling that Pershing is known for.
 

The Fulvio De Simoni design with refined interiors and generous exterior entertaining spaces complements the performance package, and the hull is built for fast day cruising and weekend escapes. Actual speed and fuel consumption depend on load, sea conditions, drive condition, and hull maintenance, so a sea trial should confirm the Arneson drives and engine performance. Fuel burn and maintenance are real ownership costs, especially at 40-plus knots.
 

Exterior Design and Construction

This 2003 Pershing 52 features a Fulvio De Simoni design with refined interiors and generous exterior entertaining spaces, along with Arneson surface drives that give the boat its performance-boat character.

The sharp handling and head-turning style Pershing is known for are evident in the exterior design.
 

Buyers should inspect the hull and deck, stringers, bulkheads, running gear, Arneson surface drives, propellers, through-hulls, fuel tanks, steering system, and any signs of water intrusion or previous structural repairs. A pre-purchase survey is essential, particularly for the hull, drives, and electronics. The cockpit, sunpads, deck hardware, and railings should also be tested during a viewing in Athens.
 

Interior and Accommodation

This 2003 Pershing 52 offers a three-cabin layout with an en-suite owner's cabin forward and two twin guest cabins amidships, sleeping six guests.

Individual boats may have different upholstery, appliances, flooring, entertainment systems, and interior finishes depending on subsequent refits. Buyers should inspect the galley equipment, refrigeration, air-conditioning, plumbing, bilge systems, and all accommodation spaces for condition and evidence of regular maintenance. The en-suite owner's cabin and two twin guest cabins provide privacy and comfort for owners and guests on weekend escapes.
 

What to Check Before Buying a 2003 Pershing 52

Before you commit, arrange a sea trial to confirm the Arneson drives and engine performance, and review service records for the MAN engines. The survey should cover the hull and deck, stringers, bulkheads, running gear, Arneson surface drives, propellers, through-hulls, fuel tanks, steering system, electrical equipment, air-conditioning, plumbing, and bilge systems. The cockpit, sunpads, deck hardware, and railings should also be tested.
 

The twin MAN 1050 HP engines and Arneson surface drives should be inspected individually, including engine hours, service records, diagnostic reports, cooling systems, turbochargers, exhaust components, transmissions, and surface drives. Buyers should also test navigation electronics, autopilot, VHF radios, refrigeration, pumps, air-conditioning, and other onboard systems. A pre-purchase survey on this used Pershing 52 is essential, particularly for the hull, drives, and electronics.
