Magnum Marine new 51 edition at Flibs 2014

Magnum 51 Forest Johnson
Magnum Marine in Miami Florida displays the newest Magnum 51 at the Ft.Lauderdale International Boat Show.

This new, blue, Magnum 51 has been delivered this summer 2014 to a client in Miami. Equipped with twin MTU 10V2000M94 of 1,600 HP, this boat represents the results of Magnum Marine new studies in a more environmental friendly boat, especially on fuel economy and speed. Amazingly, this over 70 MPH boat will use only 100gph, thanks to the lighter weight, common rail engines, the stiffer and lighter hull construction and the surface drives system.

The new Magnum 51 will be displayed at the Fort Lauderdale International Boat Show next October 2014 and will be, by special appointment and permission from owner, available for sea trials after the show.



Interiors of this new model include a large salon and galley, master stateroom, head and crew cabin. Also called 'Bestia'(Beast) the boat is characterized by her tremendous speed, acceleration and brute power. The Magnum 51’ is a narrow beam, deep-vee, very heavy hull, generally equipped with twin Caterpillar or MTU diesels of between 1600 and 1925 HP each coupled to Arneson surface drives. The top speed can reach up to 74 MPH. Very impressive is her unbelievable seaworthiness in all weather conditions.

She slices through the waves and can safely and comfortably make long crossings in rough seas, whilst large yachts remain in port. In spite of her small size, the Magnum 51’ has approx seven’ 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.
