Aries

A 50-metre yacht built around fuel efficiency rather than raw horsepower marks a shift in new construction, and Aries fits it precisely. RMK Marine is building her now for delivery in 2026, to a design from Hot Lab that treats lower fuel consumption as a working brief rather than a marketing line.

Build and provenance

At 50 metres and 499 gross tons, Aries is a displacement motor yacht on a monohull, currently under construction at RMK Marine for delivery in 2026. Hot Lab is the design house behind her, credited by the source with an innovative, customised brief that lets an owner shape details before delivery. Because construction is still under way, a buyer stepping in now can still influence choices that a completed yacht no longer allows.

Layout and accommodation

Twelve guests will sleep across six cabins, with a crew of nine to run a yacht of this scale. The source describes her as designed for groups of all sizes and ages, with the interior built to be customised to an owner's wishes rather than fixed at launch.

Performance and engineering

Her engines are chosen for lower fuel consumption rather than outright pace, in keeping with a modern-build brief, and she is rated for a top speed of 16 knots. Long range is part of the specification, the kind of figure that matters once an owner starts planning ocean crossings rather than day trips.

On deck and at anchor

On deck, the tender garage doubles as a beach club, so the space built to store toys for cruising can open into a place to swim and lounge at anchor instead, one area doing two jobs rather than a single fixed purpose.

Where she lies and how to see her

Aries is under construction in Turkey, and a buyer considering her is effectively buying ahead of delivery in 2026. Boatcrowd arranges site visits during the build and will walk a buyer through the yard in person once she is far enough along to see properly. After an offer is accepted, survey and sea trial follow before handover.
