Description
Overview
The 1989 Jefferson 52 Victory is a rare and sought-after model, based on the popular Marquessa 52 but enhanced with an extended cockpit, lazarette, and direct aft stateroom access from the cockpit — a huge upgrade in functionality for serious cruisers and liveaboards.
Jefferson Yachts were known for their high-end production quality, built in Taiwan under American supervision, delivering exceptional craftsmanship, polished teak interiors, and robust construction. “Qui-Si-Sana” exemplifies this heritage and stands out with numerous modern upgrades and systems, making her a standout in the class.
Surveyor’s Notes from 2021 survey:
“Qui-Si-Sana was viewed throughout as a high-quality build – from polished teak woodwork to interior accommodations. Many upgrades to current equipment have been completed. Upper-end electronics include a FLIR night vision camera, and a professional installation of a Mastervolt lithium-ion battery system, including multiple Mastervolt chargers and inverters.”

Interior & Accommodations
Step into a warm, welcoming salon finished in rich teak joinery with large windows providing panoramic views and natural light. The galley-down design includes full-size appliances, ample counter space, and modern upgrades. The spacious master stateroom is aft, full-beam, and includes a private head with tub/shower. Two guest staterooms forward share a head with a separate shower stall.
The interior has many modern touches while retaining the traditional nautical charm that Jeffersons are known for.
Performance & Handling
The twin Lugger diesels are commercial-grade, long-life powerplants, offering reliability and efficiency. The boat cruises comfortably at 8–10 knots, with fuel economy suited for long-range voyages. Bow and stern thrusters make her surprisingly nimble around the dock despite her size.
