Bering Yachts has announced the delivery of the first unit in its Bering 88 series. The 26.2-metre model was launched as the second Bering 80 in July 2024 but has since been rebranded following "several significant upgrades".
According to the shipyard, she is among "the roomiest and rangiest yachts in her class" and is Bering's longest under 24-metre load line.
Accommodation is for 10 guests and five crew, with all guest accommodation located on the voluminous lower deck. Interiors are both "modern and classical", incorporating light colours and natural materials such as wood and marble. The main deck features the master cabin with a walk-in wardrobe alongside a main galley, a saloon and a cockpit with a 10-seater table. A large lift-up and rotation television system is located outside.
Meanwhile, the upper deck features a gym, a Hammam, a lounge area and a sunbed, the latter of which is found on the bow. The aft deck is arranged with sun loungers but can also be used as tender storage. A wet bar, a grill, two settees, sunbeds and another television are found on the flybridge.
"The B88 series is becoming one of our most popular models," said Alexei Mikhailov, Bering Yachts' founder. "The size is perfect for a yacht – a bit under 24 meters, but with all the space and luxury that can usually be found in much bigger vessels. With a range of over 5,000 nautical miles and 220 tons of displacement, B88 is just as capable as pretty."
The yacht can reach a maximum speed of 10.5 knots and a cruising speed of 8.5 knots.
According to BOATPro, the shipyard has four units currently on order or under construction, the largest of which is the 38-metre Irish Rebel.
