AES 85 机动游艇

A steel hull and an aluminium superstructure are the two decisions that define AES 85 before she is even finished. Due for delivery from Tuzla in 2027, this 26-metre motor yacht is built by AES Yachts as a pocket explorer, sized for long range rather than for the marina. At 255 gross tonnes she carries volume closer to a much longer yacht, and her construction reflects that ambition from the keel up.

Build and provenance

The hull is steel, the superstructure aluminium, a build the source pairs with RINA's Unrestricted Navigation class, a Malta Commercial registry and CE Category A certification: the paperwork of a yacht meant to cross oceans, not just harbours. Hot Lab drew the interiors around AES Yachts' naval engineering, a collaboration that puts function ahead of decoration. For a buyer, that combination reads as an explorer built to a class society's standard rather than a styling exercise.

Layout and accommodation

Eight guests are accommodated across six cabins, with an owner's suite on the main deck offering a private study, a walk-in wardrobe and separate bathrooms for him and her. A crew of five keep pace with that guest count, a ratio that points to attentive service rather than a stretched one.

Performance and engineering

Two 910 hp diesel engines give her a cruising speed of 8 knots and a top speed of 11 knots, modest figures that come with a 6,000 nautical mile range: this is a yacht built to cross an ocean at a steady pace, not to cover a coastline quickly. Zero-speed stabilisers work at anchor and underway alike, and bow and stern thrusters handle the close-quarters work a long hull like hers needs. A crane and dedicated tender and toy storage back up that long-range brief with the means to carry what a remote anchorage asks for.

On deck and at anchor

On deck, a jacuzzi and a dip pool sit above a sun deck built for the still days a long passage is meant to end in, and a hydraulic swim platform lowers to the water at the stern. Air conditioning and sound and vibration reduction carry that same steadiness below.

Where she lies and how to see her

AES 85 lies under construction in Tuzla, Turkey, ahead of her 2027 delivery. Boatcrowd arranges viewings of her progress and attends them, and a survey and sea trial follow once an offer on her is accepted.
