Is This Used Moana 52 Available for Sale?
This 2019 Moana 52 is currently presented as a used power catamaran for sale in China. Used-yacht availability can change without notice because a vessel may be sold, withdrawn from the market or offered privately.
Prospective buyers should contact Yachttrading to confirm its current availability, precise berth location, viewing arrangements and whether updated photographs, maintenance records and ownership documents are available. International buyers should also confirm export, registration, tax and delivery requirements before making an offer.
Moana 52 Price
The current asking price for this used Moana 52 is available on request. Its market value will depend on the vessel’s physical condition, engine hours, maintenance history, equipment specification, refit record, ownership documentation and location.
A buyer should not rely solely on a historical advertised price. Contact Yachttrading for the latest asking price, included equipment and sale terms. An independent valuation and pre-purchase survey are recommended before agreeing to the final purchase price.
Performance and Propulsion
The Moana 52 is powered by two Yanmar diesel engines rated at 315 hp each. The engines had a combined reported running time of 1,378 hours when the listing information was prepared. Buyers should confirm whether the stated hours apply equally to both engines and obtain updated readings from the engine displays or diagnostic records.
Published performance figures indicate a cruising speed of approximately 10 knots and a maximum speed of up to 20 knots. The listed cruising range is around 400 nautical miles, supported by a fuel capacity of approximately 1,500 litres.
Existing technical information for the model quotes fuel consumption of approximately 26 litres per hour at 10 knots and 42 litres per hour at 15 knots. These figures should be treated as indicative rather than guaranteed. Actual fuel use will vary according to displacement, loading, hull condition, engine condition, current, weather and sea conditions. Buyers should also confirm whether the quoted consumption represents both engines combined or each engine individually.
Hull Design and Construction
The Moana 52 uses a fibreglass twin-hull structure with a reported draft of only 0.9 metres. This shallow draft can be useful for coastal cruising, sheltered bays, island hopping and access to anchorages that may be unsuitable for deeper-draft motor yachts.
The model features a distinctive inverted bow and narrow underwater hull forms developed to manage resistance and pitching. According to available model information, the bow geometry is intended to recover buoyancy quickly after meeting waves, while the canoe-shaped underwater sections are designed to support efficient cruising.
Actual performance in head seas, beam seas and following seas should be evaluated during a sea trial. Buyers should pay particular attention to bridge-deck clearance, wave impact, vibration, spray and noise at different speeds.
Exterior Design and Deck Areas
The Moana 52 has a modern profile defined by its inverted bows, broad stance and dark hardtop. Its 7-metre beam provides substantial usable deck space and helps distinguish the yacht from conventional monohull motor yachts of a similar length.
Forward Lounge
The forward deck incorporates an open lounge with wide sea views and U-shaped seating. This area is suited to relaxing at anchor, socialising and enjoying unobstructed views while the yacht is operating in suitable conditions.
Panoramic Flybridge
The upper deck is designed as a multifunctional open flybridge for dining, sunbathing and entertaining. Existing model information describes space for a dining arrangement and sun beds beneath a semi-translucent hardtop. Buyers should verify the precise furniture, upholstery, helm equipment and weather protection fitted to this individual yacht.
Flexible Entertainment Areas
Moveable or configurable furniture allows parts of the yacht to be adapted for private gatherings, business entertaining, day cruising and recreational use. Any loose furniture, deck equipment, water toys and Jet Ski storage arrangements should be checked against the final equipment inventory included in the sale.
Interior and Accommodation
The current listing describes a two-cabin layout with two bathrooms, one galley and a large main salon. The salon uses wrap-around glazing to create an open, panoramic interior with extensive natural light and direct visual connection to the surrounding water.
The interior follows a restrained contemporary style, using simple forms and a functional arrangement rather than heavy decorative detailing. The wide main-deck platform is intended to support social use, dining and flexible furniture placement.
The stated capacity of 12 refers to passengers and should not be interpreted as 12 cabins or overnight berths. Buyers should verify the general arrangement plan, cabin dimensions, bed configuration, crew accommodation and certified passenger capacity before purchase.
Who Is the Moana 52 Best Suited To?
This used Moana 52 may be suitable for several ownership profiles:
- Families seeking a stable platform with generous social space
- Owners planning coastal cruising and short island-hopping trips
- Buyers who prioritise shallow draft and open deck areas
- Owners who regularly entertain friends, clients or business guests
- Operators considering premium day-charter or event use
- Buyers seeking an alternative to a conventional 50- to 55-foot monohull yacht
-
Commercial or charter operation will depend on local passenger, safety, insurance and licensing requirements. The yacht’s stated passenger capacity does not automatically confirm that it is currently certified for commercial charter in every jurisdiction.
What to Check Before Buying This Used Moana 52
A used power catamaran should be evaluated through both an independent marine survey and a full sea trial. For this Moana 52, buyers should pay particular attention to the following areas:
- Confirm the hull identification, build year, ownership history and registration documents
- Obtain separate engine-hour readings and service records for both Yanmar engines
- Check scheduled servicing, cooling systems, exhaust systems, mounts and vibration
- Inspect both hulls, bridge deck and structural joints for damage, repairs or moisture
- Test the yacht at economical, normal cruising and higher speeds
- Verify actual fuel consumption under a documented passenger and fuel load
- Check steering, throttle response and close-quarters manoeuvring
- Inspect fuel, water, electrical, navigation, air-conditioning and pumping systems
- Confirm the condition and inventory of furniture, appliances and safety equipment
- Verify the 12-passenger capacity and any commercial-use certification
- Confirm the exact equipment included in the sale
- Review local berth availability for the yacht’s 7-metre beam
-
The current engine hours should not be judged in isolation. Regular servicing, operating history, cooling-system condition and documented maintenance are more important than the hour reading alone.
