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.

ER Yacht Design, a revered name in the world of sailing, proudly presents MedEx, a novel sailing development packed with luxury features.

True to the concept of Mediterranean cruising, the MedEx revolutionises the boating experience with impeccably designed social spaces for enjoyable day cruising. The vessel caters to the need for luxury with its open deck areas featuring sleek removable sunshade covers, a jacuzzi, storage provisions for tenders and toys, and even an optional certified helicopter landing area.
Underlying these opulent features, the yacht intelligently capitalises on beach club configurations that extend over the water, adding to the usable deck space. Alongside supporting swim-lovers and social butterflies, these foldable side terraces accrue added advantage in hosting larger gatherings when necessary.
