The 16.2-metre Solaris Power 52 Open is designed around a claim that matters more in practice than a long equipment list: an unusually extended main deck with two genuinely full-size sofas. That emphasis turns the yacht's social life into one continuous outdoor experience while the interior remains roomy enough for overnight cruising.

The main deck is designed as one long living area

Solaris gives the 52 Open a broad walkaround deck with unusually generous seating for the length. Two substantial sofas allow people to sit facing one another rather than lining up along narrow benches around the perimeter.

That simple change improves conversation and makes the yacht feel more residential. Guests can eat, read or talk in groups without every interaction being organised around the helm or one fixed cockpit table.

Walkaround circulation keeps the deck easy to use

Wide side passages allow guests to move from bow to stern without squeezing through the interior or disturbing people already seated. The layout keeps sunbathing, dining and water access connected while still giving each area its own purpose.

This matters once a boat is full. Clear circulation makes a 16-metre yacht feel larger because people can move independently instead of waiting for the same narrow route between different parts of the deck.

The interior can adapt around two or three cabins

Solaris offers several lower-deck arrangements with two cabins and an optional third depending on configuration. Two bathrooms support longer trips, while the 4.95-metre beam creates more room than the yacht's overall length might initially suggest.

A couple can prioritise larger private spaces and storage, while a family may value an additional cabin. The platform therefore supports different stages of ownership without changing the yacht's open exterior character.

Performance protects the freedom of a short break

Twin Volvo IPS packages produce published top speeds from around 30 to 35 knots depending on specification. The deep-V hull is also intended to provide the seakeeping and control expected from the wider Solaris Power range.

The lifestyle benefit is flexibility rather than speed for its own sake. Owners can spend more time at the destination, leave later and still cover useful coastal distances without sacrificing the social space that defines the yacht at anchor.
