2017 Custom Overing

A 100-foot steel motor yacht built in 2017 to MCA/Lloyds Class 100A1 specifications with RINA classification and unrestricted "Any Ocean" notation. Designed by naval architect Jon Overing, she combines expedition capability with refined comfort through full displacement hull design, zero-speed stabilizers, and a lightweight aluminum superstructure. Two Caterpillar diesel engines deliver 1,200 horsepower, propelling her to a maximum speed of 14 knots with a cruising speed of 10 knots.

The interior, created by London-based Kirschtein Interior Designs, features traditional North American cherry wood throughout with neutral soft furnishings suited to extended voyaging. She accommodates eight guests across four staterooms, each with ensuite heads. The crew quarters include forward accommodation for two with separate heads and an aft engineer's cabin with ensuite head, allowing for a five-person crew. The layout prioritizes live-aboard comfort with spacious living areas and robust exterior decking.

The hull employs LR steel construction ranging from 8 to 16 millimeters in thickness, engineered through tank testing to optimize hydrodynamic efficiency and stability. Generous tankage throughout supports long-distance exploration. Her design prioritizes safety and comfort in challenging sea conditions, moving through the water rather than across its surface due to the full displacement form.

The yacht has accumulated substantial cruising experience, having traveled more than 38,000 nautical miles from Glacier Bay, Alaska to Istanbul, Turkey, visiting over 125 ports across 25 countries and transiting both the Panama and Corinth Canals twice.
