Overview
About this vessel
The Chincogan 52 is a striking Australian built performance cruising catamaran that perfectly balances speed, exceptional build quality and liveaboard comfort. Purpose built for serious bluewater sailing while delivering the space and practicality required for extended cruising, she presents as a rare opportunity to secure a capable offshore passagemaker with proven track record.
Her well-balanced sail plan, fine entry hulls, high bridge deck clearance and generous beam combine to deliver a smooth, confident motion at sea with impressive sailing performance across a wide range of conditions. Known for sailing close to wind speed, she offers rewarding and efficient passagemaking. Complementing her performance is a new, high quality sail wardrobe fitted in 2024, along with all new running rigging replaced in 2025 -- ensuring she is fully optimised and ready to perform.
When the sails are down, twin 54hp Yanmar diesel engines provide reliable and efficient power, cruising comfortably at around 7 knots and capable of reaching up to 12 knots when required -- ideal for tight weather windows or extended motoring passages.
Stepping aboard is effortless via the large extended sugar scoops, leading into a practical walk-through cockpit with comfortable seating. The twin helm stations are well positioned for excellent visibility and weather protection, making shorthanded sailing both safe and enjoyable.
Inside, the vessel opens into a beautifully appointed and spacious saloon. The forward-facing U-shaped galley is perfectly positioned with excellent visibility, natural light and airflow -- ideal for passagemaking. The comfortable L-shaped lounge provides a welcoming retreat for family and friends, while the aft-facing navigation station opposite keeps all systems and controls within easy reach. Quality craftsmanship is evident throughout, with beautiful timber trims and thoughtful detailing creating a refined yet practical cruising environment.
The fully air-conditioned interior features the highly sought-after three-cabin owner's version layout. The port hull is dedicated to the owner, offering a generous queen berth aft, ample midships storage with neatly labelled tools, spares and accessories, convenient access to the watermaker and 8kg washer/dryer, and a luxurious full bathroom forward. Guest accommodation in the starboard hull ensures privacy and comfort for family or visiting crew.
Set up for true bluewater sailing, she has recently crossed the Tasman in style, comfort and speed -- a testament to her design and preparation. A comprehensive 2024 electrical upgrade includes 990Ah of lithium batteries, the latest B&G electronics package and 1050W of solar. With 850L of water capacity supported by a 150L/hr watermaker, she is exceptionally well equipped for extended off-grid adventures.
The Chincogan 52 is a serious cruising platform that delivers performance, capability and comfort in equal measure -- ready for her next chapter wherever the horizon calls.
