Description

NEW BOTTOM PAINT & ZINCS

Moonstruck is a beautifully maintained 52' motor yacht offering the perfect combination of comfort, space, and cruising capability. Designed for entertaining family and friends, she features a fiberglass hardtop, a newly enclosed Isinglass bridge, and custom dual STIDD helm seating.

Inside, Moonstruck offers a spacious two-stateroom layout with exceptional living space. The salon is bright, inviting, and beautifully finished with well-crafted teak woodwork and upscale furnishings, creating a warm and comfortable environment for both extended cruising and entertaining.

The aft stateroom is especially accommodating, featuring a walk-around queen berth, dressing vanity, generous storage, and a private en-suite head with freshwater, electric head, separate tub, and separate shower. Direct access to the aft deck adds convenience and makes this area particularly well suited for longer stays aboard.

The galley and dinette are located down, allowing the salon to remain open and spacious while providing a practical and comfortable layout for meal preparation and dining.

For entertaining and outdoor enjoyment, the aft deck provides excellent space for relaxing, dining, and fishing. Moonstruck also offers three helm stations — flybridge, salon, and aft deck — giving the captain excellent visibility and control in a variety of cruising situations.

Forward, the spacious V-berth stateroom provides comfortable accommodations for guests, along with ample storage and a private head featuring freshwater and an electric head.

With her generous accommodations, multiple helm stations, quality teak interior, enclosed flybridge, and thoughtful layout, Moonstruck is a versatile motor yacht ready for her next adventure.

New bottom paint and zincs add further confidence for the next owner.
