MAGNUM 51

The new Magnum 51 "Gold Label" is characterized by her tremendous speed, acceleration and brute power.

The Magnum 51’ is a narrow beam, deep-vee, very heavy hull, is equipped with twin Caterpillar diesels of between 1.600 each coupled to Arneson surface drives. The top speed can reach up to 50 knots. The speed on the attached photo shoot was clocked at 50 knots. An incredible performance with the traditional Magnum stability and seaworthiness. Luiz de Basto is the designer.

Very impressive is her unbelievable seaworthiness in all weather conditions. She slices through the waves and can safely and comfortably makes long crossings in rough seas, whilst large yachts remain in port.

In spite of her small size, the Magnum 51’ has approx. 7’ headroom and boasts a comfortable double cabin with Queen sized berth and plenty of closet space, a large head with stall shower, a salon, galley and crew cabin. The cockpit, with bolster helm and companion seats also features an L-shaped side and transom seat and sundeck.
