Botin TP52 for sale (2012) in Greifswald, North-east Germany., Mecklenburg-Vorpommern, Germany

The TP52 'Imagine' is now on the market and ready for a new home. From the Botin drawing board, this 2012 ex Azzurra Super Series 52 has had very light use over the last 11 seasons (essentially 5 seasons without any sailing) and always dry stored in a shed with professional, top-level maintenance. Built at King Marine in Spain, she was the winner of the 2012 Med Cup (ex Super Series).

She has been meticulously optimized and refined to compete at the highest level under both IRC and ORC rating rules. Imagine finished 5th in the Rolex Fastnet Race 2025 Admirals Cup 1 class (IRC), 6th overall at Gotland Runt 2022 (SRS) and several podium places in ORC championships with her largely Corinthian crew. She is optimized for both Inshore and Offshore races and is EU VAT paid.
