Northrop & Johnson proudly announces the sale of the 52’ (15.84m) Sportsfish GRACIE LU by Yacht Broker Kevin Merrigan, acting on behalf of the buyer.
Launched in 2020, GRACIE LU is the ultimate platform for fishing enthusiasts and cruising adventurers. This 52 Viking Yachts Open seamlessly blends performance, versatility, sportsfishing and luxury, catering to owners who enjoy reeling in the big one, cruising in comfort and style and luxury living at sea.
When it comes to performance, the GRACIE LU does not disappoint. Her fine, slightly convex forward sections and 12-degree transom deadrise ensure a smooth ride. Like her new-generation Viking counterparts, the yacht features three independently operated trim tabs integrated into the propeller pockets for enhanced handling and control. The outboard tabs manage most trim needs, while the center tab provides extra muscle to tackle challenging head seas. She also is outfitted with gyro stabilizers for comfort.
Below deck, this 52 Open takes full advantage of its generous 17’6” beam. GRACIE LU accommodates up to six guests. Her forward master stateroom offers a walkaround queen-size bed with a private en-suite and shower. Two additional staterooms, complemented by a second head, provide comfortable accommodations for guests. The salon and galley create a welcoming space with ample room for relaxation and dining.
The 142-square-foot cockpit is designed for serious anglers and social gatherings alike. Her main sportsfishing features include twin mezzanine seating with integrated freezer and storage, engine room access, a step box cooler, tackle storage, recessed in-deck fish boxes, and a walk-through transom door with liftgate. The yacht boasts a 4’ 11” draft, allowing her to access shallow fishing holes, beaches and more. She is ideally suited for all types of sportsfishing activities.
