In terms of research and development, this is a great achievement for the Baglietto shipyard, which has equipped hull 10238 of the 52-meter displacement yacht with a hybrid propulsion engine. Not only does diesel-electric propulsion reduce consumption and environmental impact, but it also has the autonomy to reach 7,600nm and moor at anchor for up to 10 hours on battery power alone. The two MTU 16V2000M86 engines also allow the boat to reach a maximum speed of 17 knots and a range of 3,600nm using traditional propulsion.

This remarkable performance is reinforced by Francesco Paszkowski‘s cutting-edge design. The exterior has the classic look of a steel displacement Baglietto hull under 500gt while the interior was co-designed with Margherita Casprini.

“The outdoor spaces on the T52 boat designed for Baglietto are very livable,” says Paszkowski, “with a roominess that makes it very comfortable to spend time outside. A walkway connects the large sundeck with the upper deck at the bow, turning it all into one large space.”

Contact with the sea is key on the T52 with its 3-level beach club on the open stern, a retractable pool that creates space on the deck when not in use, and large full-height windows on the upper deck  open on 3 sides.

Custom furnishings by Francesco Paszkowski alternate with pieces by luxury brands like Fendi Casa, Dedon, and Tribù. These work well with the materials used like the teak floors; the lacquer, natural leather, and almond-colored leather for the furniture; the Botticino marble in the bathrooms; the burnished metal and stainless-steel detailing; and the light-colored fabrics that complement the light-gray stone. This well-balanced blend helps fulfill the owner’s desire to live in an airy, light-filled environment.
