Home»Boating News»Clipper Motor Yachts Cordova 52 Series 2 offers an even better boating lifestyle

Clipper Motor Yachts has launched the elegant new Cordova 52 Series II Motor Yacht in Australia.

With all the classic Clipper features including walk-around decks, side and aft boarding doors, stainless steel sliding aft saloon doors and air conditioning throughout, the new Clipper Cordova 52 features a remodelled interior and increased power.

The Cordova 52 Series II features more headroom in the two guest cabins, improved cabinetry and a remodelled lounge for greater comfort.

A moulded staircase with teak treads leads from the cockpit to the expansive flybridge that is fitted with a davit and plenty of room for a tender and cradle as well as open and covered entertaining areas. A wet bar and barbecue are built into an FRP cabinet aft of the undercover seating. This includes two lounges – an L-shape with teak table to port and a straight three-seat lounge to starboard. A single helm seat forward faces a wide teak dash equipped with engine control and monitors, navigation aids and anchor controller and chain counter.

Double stainless steel sliding glass doors lead from the aft deck to the elegant saloon with ultra-leather wrap-around settee on the port side and tub chairs in front of a teak cabinet to starboard that conceals a pop-up 32-inch LCD TV. A large teak table in front of the settee is mounted on a pair of stainless steel pedestals. The entire area has a teak and holly floor or can be carpeted.

Large stainless steel framed windows throughout the saloon afford clear 360-degree views from the helm to aft deck.

Forward, the U-shape galley is well equipped with granite or Staron benchtop, four-burner hob, a refrigerator/freezer and convection microwave oven. Cabinets under the bench and overhead provide ample storage for extended cruising.

Three steps down the central companionway, the accommodation suite includes the master stateroom forward, a VIP guest stateroom to starboard and a twin berth cabin to port. The master has an ensuite bathroom while the other cabins share the second bathroom. Both bathrooms feature Staron countertops, timber vanities with glass wash bowls and elegant mixer taps. Separate shower stalls include safety glass screens

The ample aft deck features a door in the transom leading to the deep swim platform. A deck hatch leads to a massive lazarette that provides access to the steering equipment and, forward, to the engine room.

The Cordova 52’s classic double chine semi-displacement hull and running surface are designed by renowned Canadian naval architect Trevor Bolt in a style developed by the great naval architect Ed Monk. As a result, she is perfectly stable and comfortable cruising at a leisurely 10 knots and her twin Cummins 440hp turbo diesel engines can deliver a turn of speed to 20-plus knots if you need to reach a destination or avoid heavy weather.

Standard features include a bow thrusters, flybridge hardtop, built-in flybridge wet bar with an electric barbecue and a full Raymarine electronics package. Options range from stabilisers and stern thrusters to a tender cradle on the flybridge aft deck.

Everything you could want for a comfortable lifestyle is build into this magnificent craft. It even comes standard with soft furnishings for all three cabins and Clipper monogrammed towels for the two bathrooms.

Clipper Motor Yachts is proudly an Australian owned company carrying on the heritage of 25 years of boat building. The company markets six models in two ranges – Heritage and Cordova – from 36 to 60 feet and distributes in Asia, Europe and Australasia.
