Bering Yachts has launched the construction of its flagship model — the Bering 165 superyacht. A key milestone was the keel‑laying ceremony for the first hull. The project is already being hailed as one of the most anticipated expedition vessels of 2026. Aberton Yachts was the first to sign a contract for the construction of the Bering 165 hull.
The 50‑metre superyacht, with a beam of 9 metres and a gross tonnage of 499 GT, is designed to redefine the potential of transoceanic travel. Leading experts worked on the vessel’s design and engineering: the exterior was created by the Swiss studio Valentin Design, while the overall architecture was developed by Aberton Yachts. The distinctive five‑deck layout not only visually expands the space but also enhances functionality, while fully preserving the yacht’s readiness for long ocean voyages.
The Bering 165 combines Bering’s proven steel expedition‑class construction with luxurious comfort and high autonomy. The propulsion system consists of two 1,300 hp Caterpillar engines: the cruising speed is 10 knots, with a maximum speed of up to 15 knots. With a fuel capacity of 70,000 litres, the yacht has a range of over 5,000 nautical miles — enough to cross any ocean without refuelling.
“This yacht features one of the most well‑thought‑out layouts in the under‑500 GT class. It is packed with practical and smart solutions that make life on board as comfortable and functional as possible,” — Aberton Yachts.
