Permanent Vacation - VANQUISH BOATS FOR SALE

On view at the Palm Beach International Boat Show, March 25–29.

Permanent Vacation stands as the premier 2022 Vanquish 52 Hardtop under 58 feet—a luxury motor yacht and express cruiser that radiates refinement and performance. Cherished by a meticulous, hands-on owner throughout the build, her bespoke craftsmanship and flawless condition are evident the moment you step aboard.

Designed for effortless entertaining yet primed for adventure, her social cockpit flows beneath a sleek hardtop with an opening skyroof, while a genuine overnight cabin with a full-size berth invites unhurried weekends away—equally compelling as a sport yacht dayboat, performance cruiser, or superyacht chase boat.

The upgraded Volvo Penta IPS 950s deliver confident speed, agile handling, and easy docking, enhanced by Volvo DPS Skyhook station-keeping and a Seakeeper 6 gyro that keeps her remarkably level at anchor. Bottom paint and a comprehensive engine service were completed on 2/10/26, and an HD ultrasonic antifouling system furthers efficiency and reduces maintenance. Night passages are bolstered by FLIR thermal vision, a Fischer Panda diesel generator quietly powers twin air-conditioning units, and an immersive 21-speaker audio system elevates every gathering. With seven refrigerated units to manage provisions in style, her spec sheet reads like a wish list—placing this Vanquish at the pinnacle of premium motor yachts, express cruisers, and hardtop sport yachts.

A rare opportunity to own a fast, striking Dutch-built 52 that blends head-turning design with thoughtful customization and true liveaboard comfort—perfect for unforgettable days on the water and elegant island escapes.

Engine room

Engineered for authority and refinement, the engine room is driven by twin Volvo IPS950 diesel engines on IPS pod drives, cocooned in Mast coat two-component acoustic isolation to lower noise and vibration. A generous 1200 liters (396 gal) of fuel capacity extends your range, while hydraulically actuated automatic hatches, efficient air‑intake fans, and De‑Bug diesel filters streamline access, cooling, and fuel quality. Shipwide power is supported by a Fischer Pana diesel generator and two Victron Energy Isolation Transformer 7000 units, and HD Ultrasonic antifouling safeguards underwater surfaces with cutting‑edge, maintenance‑reducing protection.

Instruments and electric systems

Command comes naturally at the helm with a 7‑inch Volvo engine‑management screen, intuitive digital yacht control via a Raymarine demotic system, power steering with autopilot, and a responsive joystick. Entertainment is rich and immersive thanks to a Fusion stereo with iPad/iPhone connectivity and a subwoofer, while climate is precisely managed by air conditioning and heating in the saloon and master cabin, complete with compressor for the Mediterranean A/C main unit. A robust 24 V electrical system anchors reliability, complemented by a 40 L hot‑water boiler and a Raymarine VHF with AIS for confident communication and awareness.

Hull and deck

Strength meets sophistication in a complete hull built from stiff marine aluminum and finished in an AWL Grip superyacht mica color (nonmetallic) paint system. The walk‑around deck in Flexiteak integrates a self‑draining system for all‑weather poise, with pop‑up cleats ready on demand and a fender set, shore lines, and lifejackets housed neatly beneath automatic hatches. After dark, LED floor lighting set in stainless‑steel housings guides every step, while Lopo light navigation lights declare your presence with authority. Practical luxury continues with a 100 L service refrigerator and a warm‑water deck shower for effortless refreshment between swims.

Toilet and bathroom

The bathroom pampers with an electric‑flush toilet and a separate shower cabin crowned by a soothing rain shower. A refined washbasin set into a Corian sink delivers both warm and cold water, framed by a design mirror and sustained by a discreet ventilation fan for fresh, dry comfort at all times.

Saloon with pantry

A welcoming saloon invites conversation with plush sofa seating beside a beautifully appointed pantry featuring a Corian sink with warm‑ and cold‑water washbasin, a microwave grill oven, and a convenient refrigerator drawer, all surrounded by thoughtful storage. Ceiling spotlights and a crisp mirror elevate the ambience, while, when it’s time to unwind, a king‑size bed awaits. Ship services are delivered on 110 V 60 Hz for seamless compatibility where required.

Lounge table and walk around

Forward, a serene lounge area with a dining table becomes the social heart of the yacht, where sea breezes and conversation flow with ease. The walk‑around is 75 cm from floor level to the highest point of the hull, combining reassuring depth with effortless circulation for guests moving from bow to stern.

Safety

Peace of mind comes standard with a full complement of 12 life vests and an automatic fire‑extinguishing system serving the engine room. A 3‑compartment automatic bilge pump system adds yet another layer of security, quietly protecting the yacht when it matters most.

Anchor system

Anchoring is effortless with an automatic submarine anchor and an automatic anchor winch connected to 40 m of 8 mm stainless‑steel chain and a 25 kg balanced anchor, all controlled cleanly from both the bow and the dashboard for fingertip precision.
