Chasing Tiki Boat | 52' Beneteau 2008

52’ | Beneteau 523 Oceanis | 2008

LLC Owned

This Beneteau 523 Oceanis has special place in my heart as the listing broker as I have known the boats history since she was first launched in Marina del Rey, CA. The original owner invested heavily in preparing the yacht for the famous Transpacific Yacht Race (Los Angeles to Hawaii) in the summer of 2015. Racing under the name "Transformer," the yacht and crew successfully completed the race.

The yacht was later sold to my father-in-law who also kept in the boat MdR, CA. Although we never raced the boat competitively like the original owner, we enjoyed many family adventures along the coast and to Catalina Island. The boat was later sold to the current owner who has also enjoyed cruising the boat locally with family and friends. They have also continued to upgrade the boat for more blue water cruising. Some of the recent additions include a custom stainless arch with solar panels and dinghy davits, new Quantum sails, new standing rigging, and a new full suite of new B&G electronics. All receipts for upgrades and additions are available upon request.

With family plans changing the current owners are now ready to sell and want to see her go to a good home that will enjoy her for years to come. The boat is currently docked in San Pedro, CA at a wonderful main channel slip that may be transferable to the new owners.

You will not find a cleaner or better equipped 50’ sailboat in this size or price range on the West Coast. If you’re looking for a serious cruiser or even a comfortable offshore racer in than this is the boat! Click on the full specifications tab for all the details on upgrades and equipment.
