Explorer Articles

Renowned Turkish shipyard Bering Yachts is embarking on an exciting voyage of ingenuity as they lay the keel for the first yacht in its flagship 49.4-metre B165 explorer series. This follows the signing of the yacht contract back in January, where Aberton Yachts played a vital role in representing the owner. This monumental yacht, standing as the boldest offering from their new Superyacht division, promises to deliver an impressive 499 Gross Tonnage across its five-deck layout and is expected to exude a grandeur far beyond its actual length.

The stylistic blueprint of the yacht is the result of a noteworthy collaboration with Swiss studio Valentin Design for exterior style, Aberton Yachts for general arrangement, and Turkish studio Eureka Yachts for engineering. A pertinent part of the construction ceremony was placing a coin in the yacht’s keel, a customary tradition highlighting the merging of the old with the new.
