In 2007, Bering Yachts slipped quietly onto the scene with a 55' steel hull trawler, filling a much overlooked niche for a custom, long range, steel-based trawler in a size sector dominated by production boats. From that first splash, they've been logging miles and building credibility ever since. Recently, Bering expanded their range to deliver a line of head-turning, go-anywhere displacement hull cruisers with solid CFD engineering, heavy metal construction and a systems integration plan that is direct & accessible. Enter the Bering 77' World Cruiser; a yacht built for the adventurous without Richard Branson's billfold...

Benetti Splashes 56-meter Superyacht "Surpina"
Italian motoryacht manufacturer Benetti splashed the 56-meter superyacht "Surpina". She is quite different to alot of Benetti launches especially with the styling of the windows and the arrangement of the decks. She was built as hull FB267 and looks quite interesting with her squared appearance. Alot of Surpina's exterior deck space has been taken up by most of the deck structure suggesting the owner perhaps wants to hide from the sun. Onboard Surpina, she will host as many as fourteen guests in seven cabins. The Classic Italian-styled interior is punctuated by the use of marbles and white plush carpeting juxtaposed with prime wooden veneers and paneling. Mahogany meets Elm and Walnut with Rosewood details. Surpina runs on twin MTU 12V 4000 M53 series marine diesels. A 5,000 nautical mile range can be achieved at a more sedate 12-knots...

OceAnco 110-meter Superyacht Y714 (Jubilee)
Dutch superyacht builder OceAnco smoldered their national competition with the launch of the 110-meter Casco for yard number Y714. Just a few weeks ago Feadship held the title for launching the largest yacht in the Netherlands with hull 808, 101-meter "Symphony". That prestige did not last for long when OceAnco's subcontracting builder Zwijnenberg slid the 110-meter Y714 into the water for the first time. The yacht will now be towed to OceAnco's finishing facilities in Alblasserdam. It is assumed that hull Y714 will become the first superyacht to utilize OceAnco's brand new indoor finishing drydock. Not alot is known about the 110-meter Y714 but we do know that she is designed by Igor Lobanov. A visit to the design company's website is met with a banner displaying that the superyacht is a confidential project...
125-meter Project 'Tatiana' Launches at Lurssen
The 125-meter Project 'Tatiana' emerged from the floating dry dock at Lurssen at the end of the week. Anticipation was building that launch was imminent when photos surfaced of the yacht in full view inside the floating dry dock. Even though visible, details surrounding this particular yacht are quite scarce and that isn't surprising since this is confidential project of Lurssen. Although unconfirmed, it is quite possible that Project Tatiana is the successor to the Golden Fleet. A comparison of the badges on both yachts -even though Tatiana's is covered- lends credibility to this notion. As to the design of the new 125-meter superyacht, it is said to be from the boards of Martin Francis. The displacement superyacht weighs in at around 7,600 tonnes and is suggested to be powered by a diesel-electric propulsion package. The yacht conceals a number of interesting features...

Sunrise Yacht's Third 45-meter Megayacht Under Construction
After the successes enjoyed by Sunrise Yachts with the current units in the Sunrise 45-meter series, they announce a third hull is currently under construction.
