Owner Experience Review
Owners gravitate to the 520 FlybridgefromPRESTIGEfor family cruising and entertaining. The three-stateroom, two-head layout with a galley-up main deck delivers a bright, sociable salon thanks to panoramic windows and about 6'10" headroom. Double-wide aft doors and a galley-aft arrangement make hosting easy, while the XXL flybridge adds expansive seating, a sun pad, and an optional outdoor galley/grill. The model’s appearance in Mediterranean charter fleets reinforces its guest-friendly deck plan and day-to-day practicality.
On the water, reviewers consistently report a remarkably steady ride, with minimal roll in 2' beam swells and spray deflected for a dry run. Close-quarters handling is a strong suit: the IPS joystick and portside helm give precise control for docking. Sea-trial numbers with twin Volvo IPS600s indicate a comfortable best cruise around 18.8 knots and a top speed near 25 knots, with fuel burn at best cruise reported around 30.7 gph.
Range and upkeep shape expectations. Owner discussions note roughly 212 nm of range at cruise—well suited to coastal hops and island-hopping, but warranting caution for long blue-water passages. Maintenance-wise, IPS pods are recurring service items (routine oil changes and occasional pump or seal replacements), and multiple owners/brokers point out that some service access on this layout can drive labor hours. Typical used-boat notes include attention to IPS drive seals, hydraulic swim platform service, and occasional electrical or minor water-intrusion fixes.
Pros and Cons
- Family-friendly three-stateroom, galley-up layout with panoramic windows and ~6'10" headroom.
- XXL flybridge, large cockpit seating, and double-wide salon doors support effortless entertaining.
- Steady, dry ride and precise IPS joystick handling; best cruise ~18.8 kt and top ~25 kt with IPS600s.
- Practical range at cruise is about 212 nm, favoring coastal and island-hopping over long offshore runs.
- IPS pods require recurring attention, including oil changes and occasional seal or pump replacement.
- Some service tasks can be labor-intensive on this layout; used boats may note swim-platform hydraulics or minor electrical/water-intrusion items.
