Baglietto Secures Ninth T52 Motor Yacht Sale

La Spezia, Italy – February 1, 2024 – Baglietto, the renowned Italian shipyard, has announced the sale of the ninth hull in its successful T52 motor yacht line. This comes just months after the first T52 was unveiled at the Cannes and Monaco yacht shows, solidifying the model's popularity.

This news follows closely behind the announcement of the tenth DOM 133 sale for the Australian market, further solidifying the success of Baglietto's two flagship lines. This remarkable achievement marks a strong start to the company's 170th anniversary year.

Capitalizing on Market Trends and Staying True to Heritage: "Selling nine units of this model in just three years, including two with hybrid propulsion, speaks volumes about Baglietto's ability to adapt to the evolving needs of the market while staying true to its heritage," comments Fabio Ermetto, CCO of Baglietto. "This success lies in our ability to blend recognizable stylistic elements from our rich tradition with contemporary features, resulting in yachts with a unique personality that are in tune with the times. We seamlessly integrate cutting-edge technology while maintaining the timeless design principles that have defined Baglietto for 170 years."

Collaborative Efforts and Distinctive Design: The exterior of this particular hull was designed by Francesco Paszkowski Design, while the interior carries the combined vision of Francesco Paszkowski Design and Margherita Casprini. Petr Soldatkin of Aberton Yachts, who will project manage the construction, represented the client during the sale. The yacht is scheduled for delivery in 2026.

"This is the second T52 model we've signed with Baglietto in recent times," states Aberton Yachts. "Our team takes great pride in our strong relationship with the shipyard, and we anticipate even more impressive results in the future. We extend our best wishes to the owner for a smooth and enjoyable yacht construction experience."

Seamless Connection with the Outdoors: The yacht prioritizes a close connection to the ocean, featuring a unique open stern with a three-level beach club, a signature element of Baglietto's recent designs. The spacious pool can be cleverly concealed using a moving floor system, expanding the available deck space when not in use.

Unparalleled Comfort and Style: The upper deck boasts expansive floor-to-ceiling windows opening on three sides, creating a delightful "al fresco" lounge with dedicated dining and conversation areas, perfect for enjoying the outdoors in any weather conditions.
The approximately 24-meter sundeck, another hallmark of Baglietto yachts, offers an unmatched experience for a vessel of this size and volume, echoing the heritage of the shipyard's classic displacement yachts.
