Owner Experience Review
Owners and operators tend to use the 50byMAORIas a high-intensity dayboat: it is commonly found on Mediterranean day-charter platforms and in chase-boat/tender roles for larger yachts. With a CE Category B rating and a simple below-deck layout (one cabin, one head, and a small galley), it works for short family coastal cruising and occasional weekend overnights, but the emphasis remains clearly on day use. The deck is the star—large, open, and social—with multiple sunbeds and a dining table that converts to a sunpad.
On the water, the planing GRP hull delivers a sporty feel, with published figures around 32 knots for cruising and about 43 knots at the top. Operators emphasize quick acceleration and a shallow draft of roughly 0.8 m, making it practical for working close to coves and beaches. Real-world listings also cite fuel use on the order of 150–180 L/h at 25–30 knots, which helps with practical trip planning. Variants with a T-top or hard-top materially change shade coverage and cockpit ergonomics.
Typical propulsion packages reported include twin Yanmar 8LV 370s or Volvo Penta D6/400s, with routine diesel inboard maintenance. Broker notes frequently show straightforward service histories—recent engine service and antifouling are commonly recorded. Engines are located under the aft cockpit, as expected for this type. Public owner cost data is limited, and many used examples are ex-charter, so reviewing service records and usage profiles is advisable.
Pros and Cons
- Quick, sporty planing hull with around 32-kn cruise and 43-kn top.
- Shallow draft (~0.8 m) enables access to coves and nearshore anchorages.
- Expansive deck with multiple sunbeds and a convertible dining-to-sunbed setup.
- Limited below-deck accommodations (one cabin/one head and small galley) suit day use more than extended stays.
- At 25–30 knots, real-world fuel burn of roughly 150–180 L/h requires careful range planning.
- Many used examples are ex-charter, so condition and service history scrutiny is essential.
