Bering Yachts

The shipyard has structured itself with a second site in Bulgaria, a U.S.-based headquarters, and offices in Germany and Australia. Until now, Bering Yachts has offered monohull exploration yachts from 60 to 165 feet: these sturdy, virtually autonomous vessels can be used as exploration bases, and of course provide comfortable (very) long-distance cruising for their Owners.

After its monohull range, Bering is now embarking on the multihull adventure with three models, the BC60, BC70 and BC80.

Built along the same lines as the monohulls, the BCs do, however, swap steel for aluminum. The Bering powercats also take up the “exploration” design dear to the shipyard, with high, very straight bows, a thick nacelle, a solid helm station and a flybridge adorned with a T-Top. The BCs manage to reconcile this rugged look with beautiful outdoor living spaces. The inverted windshield at the helm frees up maximum space forward for a full saloon, while the flybridge extends well aft, effectively protecting the large aft cockpit. Access to the swimming area or tender is easy thanks to a hydraulic platform that transforms the entire aft end of the powercat into a private beach.

Bering also makes a point of offering a luxurious, customizable interior. Aboard the BC60, you'll find a completely open main deck featuring a lounge area, a galley with bar and a slightly offset dining area. Wherever you are on board, you'll enjoy an almost 360° view.

The exterior usable area of this first model is 1,336 square feet (124.1 m²), while the interior living area is 1,253 sq ft (116.4 m²). Highly modular, the Bering BC60 is available with 4, 5 or 6 cabins, depending on your needs. The flybridge can also be opened or closed.

Propulsion is provided by two 425 HP Cummins QSB 6.7 motors. Thanks to a foiling system, maximum speed is announced at 14 knots and a cruising speed of 10 knots. The shipyard is forecasting a range of 3,300 nautical miles.

The BC70 follows the same recipe, with even greater space and 5 cabins, while power is increased to 2 x 600 HP Cummins QSM11.

Finally, the Bering Catamaran BC80 offers all the volume of a 120-foot monohull superyacht, no less, with its four decks and two terraces in addition to the cockpit. Inside, there's a proper chef's kitchen and 7 cabins.

To move the 131 tons of this powercat, you can count on twin 800 HP Volvo Penta engines, which enable it to cruise at 10 knots and reach 15 knots at top speed. With its 8,600 US gallon (32,500-liter) fuel tank, it has an estimated range of over 4,000 nautical miles.
