50' MJM 50z Motor Yachts

Introduction

Easy-to-Operate by Couples

Large boats can be intimidating to operate. But, you can park a 50z solo, thanks to 360° visibility, joystick docking and a single level deck from the wheel aft to cockpit side-opening doors onto a floating dock.

 

Day-time Privacy for Friends & Family

The MJM 50z offers the best of both worlds: entertaining space for family picnics or cocktail parties on a single level deck.   Plus, hospitable 24/7 staterooms for live-aboard cruising comfort-- not just sleeping cabins belowdecks.

The 50z master cabin includes a desk/dressing table plus easy chair next to a large hull opening port for fresh air and view of the harbor… to read, write, chat on the phone or just have one’s own space.

 

Seakeeper Gyro-Stabilizer is Standard Equipment

Without steadying sails, all powerboats roll...the MJM's less than most due to their low center of gravity. But, the single biggest opportunity for improving comfort afloat on a powerboat is to eliminate rolling. The 50z is the first yacht to offer this leading edge technology as standard equipment. Introduced 5 years ago, over 1,500 Seakeeper units are now in use worldwide, mostly on large custom motoryachts. The Seakeeper resists rather than reacts to the tendency of a boat to roll as it is spinning at 8,000 RPM to create it's stabilizing inertia. The vessel just doesn't roll and seems very solid without any herky-jerky motion.

 

Extraordinary Fuel Efficiency and Safety

50z fuel efficiency is 0.9 nm/pg at 25 knots. How? The 50z is built lighter and stronger in the USA of pre-preg epoxy, E-Glass and Corecell to exceed ISO Category A Ocean requirements ... the highest reating for seaworthiness issued by IMCI, the International Marine Certification Institute in Brussels. And, its sleek profile and low center of gravity make it more safe, seaworthy and fun to drive.

10 Reasons Why 50z

1. Timeless Good Looks MJM’s #1 priority… and why Doug Zurn was chosen as the designer. He has the best eye in the business starting with the Shelter Island 38 for singer Billy Joel. You want to look at your boat with pride and the satisfaction of owning a work of art, draw compliments on entering harbor and know this is not “here today and gone tomorrow� styling. A US Design Patent protects that unique MJM signature look. There are other important benefits of the 50z’s sleek profile: Lower bridge clearance, greater stability for seaworthiness, faster hose down after use, less windage and easier trucking overland.  

2. Greater Comfort and Less Fatigue MJM Yachts led the market in announcing Seakeeper Gyro-Stablizer as standard equipment on the 50z. SeaRay has now followed on their new 650. 1500+ Seakeepers are now in service worldwide… mostly on large custom motor yachts. With this technological breakthrough, life on a powerboat will never be the same. No more rolling by day… and better sleeping at night.  

3. Higher Quality Construction. Lighter and stronger pre-preg epoxy, Eglass & Corecell composite construction creates a yacht with less drag, a lower center of gravity and higher horsepower to weight ratios…resulting in in superior fuel-efficiency (28-30 gph @ 25 knot cruise), a safer boat with greater stability that’s more fun to drive. As boats become bigger, the MJM advantage becomes even more pronounced because construction weight makes up a higher percentage of the boat. The East Bay 50 displaces 50,000 lbs. The 50z… 32,850 lbs. at half load! 

  

4. Better Performance The 50z with the standard twin Volvo-Penta IPS 600 drives has a top speed of 31.5 knots with a 28 knot cruise.  With the optional triple 435 HP Volvo-Penta IPS 600s, top speed is 40 knots with a 35 knot cruise.     

5. Easier and Safer Flush Deck  50z have port & starboard side boarding doors at floating dock height onto a flush deck from cockpit to wheel. This is achieved because 50z, due to high tech construction, can utilize smaller engines... 8-10� lower than the next size up needed to propel other 50 footers. The Hinckley T48 has multi levels and coaming doors but still requires scaling the topsides. The Palm Beach 50 has a single level deck, but no side doors. The Sabre 48 has several levels from a low swim platform. And, East Bay 50 has multi-levels and is the first among Down East designs to pick up on this MJM innovation, offering side doors as a $17,000 option.  

6. Safer Entertaining Thanks again to the low profile, there are only 2 steps between galley to deck levels instead of 3-4… an important feature when serving food and drinks from galley onto the deck. Of course, on the 50z, one may also dine on the same level as the galley in luxurious privacy of the Great Cabin.  

7. More Daytime Privacy Experienced cruisers know that 80% of cruising time is spent in port. They will not be happy long term with other 48-50 footers as there’s no place to sit below…just beds! So everyone has to crowd into the "salon" during daylight hours. There’s no place for the kids to hang out watching TV or playing games below while old folks are at cocktail hour on deck. The MJM 50z is a real category game changer!

 On a 50z you can have 2 cabins at night, each with matched en-suite heads and glass-enclosed stall showers as well as reading chair and a pair of large screened opening hull ports for fresh air and a view of the harbor... like not going belowdeck.  

8. Great Cabin & Instant 2nd Guest Cabin  A large L-shaped settee with combination dining/coffee table seats 6 and also serves as feet-to-feet twin berths which readily convert to a 50" x 80" double by lowering the table. A "Pullman Curtain" offers additional privacy from an area already closed off from “Flag Country� forward. 50z has a unique option which eliminates the need to choose between an open layout and one with two fixed cabins. This option features a removable and readily stored bulkhead with door that can be erected in minutes to create a completely enclosed guest cabin.  

9. Cabin #3 at Deck Level to Sleep 3 More 50z has a more pleasant solution that claustrophobic 3rd cabin under the “salon�. The 50z pilothouse at night can be completely enclosed by sunscreen/privacy curtains. The starboard settee converts to a 50"x 80" double berth, while the port settee is an unobstructed, comfortable single.  

10. Bridge Deck of a 65 Foot Motoryacht  50z’s main deck actually has more space and the same all weather capability of a custom flush, air-conditioned, upper flybridge deck of larger motor yachts... which is where everyone wants ot be underway. So why include the dark 'salon' in the design? The Express model offers an alternate styling with the opportunity to provide additional solid-glass protection for rougher water, higher speed operation while still have the flexibility to open up the sides, back and windshields for optimum control of ventilation. Apart from the design of these pilothouse side windows, the Downeast and Express models are alike.
