Explorer yachts are nothing new for RMK Marine or Vripack. In fact, the builder-designer duo have collaborated on three expedition-style megayachts in recent years. They have paired again for the 110 Explorer Yacht shown here.
The 110 Explorer Yacht evolved from a client’s request. To generate additional interest, two different profiles are available. The one shown at top is similar to the three expedition yacht deliveries mentioned above: Caressa K, in 2006; Private Lives, in 2003; and Jasmin, also in 2003. Version two, seen below, has the same stalwart exterior character but with some altered features. Note the floor-to-ceiling windows aft on the upper deck, the all-around windows in the raised pilothouse, and the long, vertical windows forward on the main deck, in the master stateroom.
The RMK 110 Explorer Yacht has a further three staterooms for guests below decks. A twin, a double, and a VIP are suggested, though buyers can request RMK Marine and Vripack outfit them differently. Six crewmembers are housed forward below decks. The interior also includes a combination saloon and dining area, a good-size galley on the main deck, and a skylounge devoted to relaxing and entertaining. The pilothouse in each has a good-size observation settee accompanying a single pedestal helm seat. Three pedestal seats sit atop this deck, on what’s sure to be the ultimate alfresco aerie.
Both renderings also show tender stowage aft of the pilothouse. Two toys can sit side by side, with their launching crane installed between them. However, RMK Marine and Vripack say the space can be redesigned for additional toys if desired.
Power packages have not yet been specified. However, the 110 Explorer Yacht, like the previous Vripack-RMK Marine megayachts, emphasizes long range and good fuel economy. Jasmin, for example, has a 5,000-nautical-mile range at 10½ knots with twin Caterpillars, burning just shy of 36 gallons (135 liters) per hour.
