The new NEEL 52 sailing trimaran is a brand-new concept by famed French designer Marc Lombard, who is also responsible for the NEEL 43 and NEEL 47 designs. The new NEEL 52 multihull is replacing the highly successful NEEL 51 cruising yacht of which over 40 units have been crafted.
Improved Performance & More Volume
The NEEL 52 trimaran has some dynamic improvements in her hull design. The boat’s central hull features a deep rocker for quick maneuvers and great load bearing characteristics. The trimaran’s fine amas help tracking, greatly improving stability and upwind speed. This all results in a quick sailing yacht that can already sail at wind speed at under 8 knots of breeze. This is a feat that hardly any other multihull with the same volume can achieve. The boat’s sailing systems are cleverly laid out in such a way that one person can easily sail, reef and maneuver the boat.

Luxurious Interior & Open Design Philosophy
Her interior is cavernous, a mix of luxurious spaces and modern, clean styling. Order your NEEL 52 in 2 different Versions. Choose between the trademark master cabin or having a cavernous chef- galley with an adjacent bar on the main deck. Both versions can be configured with various number of staterooms in the amas. The new NEEL 52 also features the expansive salon/cockpit (Cockloon) as well as the large systems and engine room under the main deck. Weight centering and access to maintain machinery has always been at the heart of NEEL’s design philosophy.
Environmentally Conscious 21’st Century Sailing Machine
High-tech built at NEEL’s state of the art production facility the NEEL 52 trimaran is crafted using a hybrid composite construction, utilizing carbon in high stress areas. The yard is also environmentally conscious. Consequently it uses PET recycled foam as a core and epoxy based Isophthalic resins. For safety, the boat carries the highest offshore Category-A ECC certification.
Whether living aboard or shorthanded family circumnavigating, we think she is one of the best cruising sailing yachts on the market. Experience the NEEL 52. She combines the best aspects of a monohull and catamaran.

Just as on the smaller Neels, the NEEL 52 trimaran centralizes its running rigging to the helm. Reefing, furling and raising sails, as well as tacking, sail adjustments and anchoring are all accomplished without even leaving the safety of your helm seat.
