The second hull in the collaboration between eponymous design house Nuvolari Lenard and Mengi Yay, the 52.4m NL 52 Plus is currently under construction for delivery in 2028. Combining the individuality of a custom yacht with the efficiency of a proven platform, she features exterior and interior design by Nuvolari Lenard, with an efficient displacement hull developed by Van Oossanen Naval Architects. At 499GT, she offers the volume and amenities associated with a considerably larger yacht while remaining below the 500GT threshold.
Her highly customisable interior accommodates up to 10 guests, with considerable scope remaining for an incoming owner to personalise the layout, materials and finishes. Expansive glazing brings natural light throughout, while the full-beam owner’s suite features a private study, dressing room and independently operated slide-out balcony.
Outdoor living is central to the design. The expansive beach club incorporates a custom pool and fold-down platforms, creating a broad terrace beside the water. One of the largest sundecks in her category provides multiple spaces for dining, lounging and entertaining, while a dedicated wellness deck includes a private sauna and fully equipped gym. Powered by twin Caterpillar engines, the NL 52 Plus cruises at 12 knots, reaches a top speed of 16.5 knots and offers a range of approximately 4,000 nautical miles.
