New Launch: Proteksan & Turquoise 53.70m "Leo Fun"

Proteksan & Turquoise launches 53.70-meter "Leo Fun"​

In January 2009, the Turkish shipyard of Proteksan & Turquoise launched their first yacht for the new year. This yacht is another in their proven explorer-trawler type vessel and is a near sister to the expedition styled, "Vinydrea". The new yacht's name is "Leo Fun".

"The trawler yacht with steel hull and aluminum superstructure, capable of undertaking voyages of discovery across the world’s oceans, has been styled and designed by Paolo Caliari with the contribution of the shipyard’s own naval architects.

Jean Guy Verges has designed the interior; which will feature accommodation for 12 guests and as many crew. Built to ABS class and fully MCA compliant, the yacht will achieve 16 knots powered by twin Caterpillar 3512B engines, each producing 1,750hp. Her fuel-carrying capacity of 100,000 liters ensures that she will not need too many pit stops along the way."
