Bering B120 Iate a motor

An explorer yacht earns part of her reputation before launch, in the hull form and the yard that shapes it. Bering B120 is being built to order in Turkey, a 37-metre motor yacht due for delivery in 2028, with a genuinely wide beam behind her explorer profile. At 8.9 metres across, she has room a length figure alone would not suggest.

Build and provenance

She is a custom motor yacht, a monohull from the Turkish yard rather than a production run, with Bering's own naval-engineering approach behind the hull form. Due for delivery in 2028, she measures 37 metres with an 8.9-metre beam and a 2.6-metre draught that still lets her into most yacht marinas. At 495 gross tons, Bering B120 already reads big for her length before a single guest steps aboard.

Layout and accommodation

The interior is built to order rather than to a fixed plan, so a single owner might take a private owner's deck while a charter layout evens every cabin out; either way, she is designed to sleep twelve guests. A crew of nine, by the builder's own account, keeps a boat this size properly run without ever feeling short-handed.

Performance and engineering

Two 900 hp MAN D2862LE427 engines drive her to a 12-knot cruise and a 14-knot top speed, the pace of a boat built to cover distance steadily rather than sprint between anchorages. A tender garage keeps her tender out of the weather until it is wanted, standard kit for an explorer meant to reach places without a marina waiting.

On deck and at anchor

On deck, a beach club and swim platform put the water within a step of the aft deck, and a gym below gives the wellness routine somewhere to happen away from the guest saloon.

Where she lies and how to see her

The Turkish yard is where Bering is building her, and a viewing there means walking the build rather than stepping off a tender. Boatcrowd sets up that visit and comes along, and once an offer on Bering B120 is accepted, survey and sea trial follow once she is complete, in the usual order.
