In-house Sale of Under-Construction 52-metre Bilgin 170 Superyacht Announced, Expected to Set Sail in 2027
The luxury boat industry is abuzz with the news of a prestigious transaction - Bilgin Yachts’ fourth offering from their Bilgin 170 series, currently under construction, has been sold in-house. The sale was orchestrated by Fraser, a reputable brokerage firm, who disclosed that the vessel is expected to grace the waves come 2027.
Known as NB85, the construction process for this 52-metre superyacht commenced under speculation in 2023. Following an eagerly anticipated completion announcement last year, this splendid nautical entity is now progressing under the ownership of a lucky buyer who remains in for a treat when their exquisite pleasure craft is ready. Jan Jaap Minnema from Fraser Monaco and Josh Gulbranson from Fraser USA represented the seller, while the buyer was introduced by Anton Farber from Fraser Monaco.
The addition of metal-mesh laminated glasses, chromed stainless steel and rich Italian fabrics throughout the yacht underscores an infusion of top-notch quality with luxurious finesse - an integration that will not go unnoticed in the eyes of discerning superyacht enthusiasts.
The final details for the onboard living arrangements are still to be confirmed. If the previous sales listing holds validity, one can expect a five or a six-cabin layout, with an optional multi-level guest elevator. Key specifications include a 9.3-metre beam, 2.6 metre draft, and a maximum speed of 16 knots.
Several exciting exterior features are in the offering as well, promising potential owners the luxury of a large sundeck pool, numerous outdoor lounging and dining spaces as well as a beach club. The beach club can be tailored according to the owner’s style, ready to be converted into a gym or lounge. With the promise of such unparalleled luxury on the anvil, it is not surprising that the Bilgin 170 Superyacht has been noted for its significant charter potential.
