The Garcia Exploration 52 represents the middle child of Garcia Yachts’ specialized aluminum range, a vessel designed to extend the boundaries of long-distance cruising into both polar and tropical extremes. Launched in 2015 as the successor to the groundbreaking Exploration 45, the 52-footer was conceived by the renowned naval architecture firm Berret-Racoupeau Yacht Design to offer greater volume, autonomy, and speed while maintaining the "go-anywhere" philosophy popularized by Jimmy Cornell. Constructed with a heavy-duty 5083 H111 marine aluminum hull, featuring plate thicknesses ranging from 5mm to 12mm at the floor, it is often described as an "armoured cruiser" capable of safely navigating ice-strewn waters or drying out in remote, shallow lagoons.
