This 2007 Sessa C52 is a well-equipped Italian-built sports cruiser offering generous accommodation, comprehensive cruising systems, and proven reliability. Now offered for sale in excellent overall condition, the motor boat has been carefully maintained throughout its life and is ready for the coming season with very little to do.
The Sessa C52 combines a practical twin-engine layout with comfortable accommodation for four to five, a modern specification including reverse-osmosis watermaker and dual air conditioning, and a versatile aft cockpit with motorised hardtop sunroof. This example benefits from an engine service completed in 2026 with new turbos fitted to both engines, comprehensive Raymarine navigation integration.
In the market segment, this Sessa compares favourably to the Princess V52, Sunseeker Portofino 53, and Fairline Targa 52 GT. The Sessa offers exceptional value, particularly in the specification of twin thrusters, watermaker, and dual air conditioning systems — features that distinguish this example in the 50-foot European sports cruiser class.

BROKER’S REMARKS
This motor boat is one of those well-found examples that inspires confidence from first sight. The vessel has clearly been owned by someone who values proper maintenance and understands the needs of extended cruising — the evidence is in the 2026 engine service, the professionally maintained systems, and the quality of the interior fit-out.
The Sessa C52 is a capable platform for Mediterranean cruising, and this example is well specified for the task. Twin bow and stern thrusters make tight mooring work straightforward, the reverse-osmosis watermaker means extended time away from marinas is practical, and the dual air conditioning units keep the cabin cool in summer anchoring. The aft cockpit with its motorised hardtop sunroof is genuinely sociable — a proper entertaining space with integrated wet bar and dining table. The cockpit electric hob, fridge, and additional freezer facilities extend the galley functionality on deck.
The accommodation below is practical and well-finished. The master cabin forward offers proper privacy with its own ensuite bathroom and shower; the guest cabin with shared facility works well for family or friends; and the twin cabin provides useful crew berths or additional guest space. The saloon is light and welcoming, with generous seating, a dining table that seats six, and quality teak joinery throughout. The chest freezer in the saloon demonstrates serious provisioning capability for extended cruising.
The Williams 230 tender (only 10 hours use, essentially as new) adds significant practical value. Annual maintenance by local yard staff has been consistent, with recent major works including hull repaint, new exhausts, and battery replacement.
For the prospective buyer seeking a capable, well-maintained cruiser ready for immediate use, this motor boat represents sensible value at a realistic asking price. Early inspection is warmly invited.
