Bering presents new design for B120 explorer yacht

Bering Yachts has revealed all-new renderings of its 37.1-metre B120, which is set to join the Turkish shipyard's fleet of full-displacement explorer yachts. 

The B120 was designed alongside Sabdes Design and Phathom Design Studio , with the latter known for recent collaborations such as Gulf Craft 's 34.1-metre Majesty 111 model and Extra Yachts ' eco-minded catamaran Villa X30.

Accommodation will be for 12 guests and nine crew over four decks. The B120 is flexible regarding configuration, thanks to a spacious 8.9-metre beam and wide-beam displacement hull which may appeal to those interested in Bering's buy-to-charter program, according to the shipyard. A charter-friendly arrangement suggested by Bering includes six identical cabins, with four positioned on the main deck and two on the lower deck.

Interior renderings reveal airy, bright interiors curated by floor-to-ceiling windows, a white and cream colour scheme, curved architecture lines and edgeless furniture. The main saloon is arranged with a wet bar and a formal dining area aft that seats 12 people.

Alexey Mikhailov, founder of Bering Yachts, said: “While designing this boat, we have received plenty of feedback from our customers, and we tried to execute their suggestions in B120. For example, a private deck accessible only by the owners, or a trendy request – a beach club. What is different about B120, you don’t need to go down to the beach club, as in most boats of this class. We have blended it with the swimming platform, and the beach club is now elevated by 70 centimetres, making it more useful.” 

Exterior renderings show additional leisure highlights including a bow Jacuzzi, a side-loading beach club balcony and ample sofa seating and sunloungers spread across the B120's three decks. 

Powered by twin diesel engines, the B120 will be able to reach a top speed of 14 knots and a cruising speed of between 10 to 12 knots. The yacht's 54,100 litre tank capacity also enables a range of over 4,000 nautical miles.

This news comes at a busy time for Bering Yachts. According to BOATPro , 11 units are currently under construction, four of which belong to the shipyard's ever-popular B80 series.

This New 122-Foot Explorer Yacht Has an Elevated Beach Club That Lets You Lord Over the Water

The B120’s beach club is actually elevated by more than two feet, meaning that you don’t have to walk down to it as you do with most vessels in this class. It also connects seamlessly to the swim platform, ensuring you have quick and easy access to the seas. Bering says the yacht is brimming with outdoor relaxation areas for alfresco lounging or dining.

Penned in partnership with Sabdes Design and Phathom Design, the elegant exterior is characterized by sleek, dynamic lines. The height of the superstructure was reduced to create more balanced proportions, as many explorers tend to feel too high in this size segment, according to Bering.

The B120’s living quarters were brought to life by Phathom. (This is the first time Bering has collaborated with the Dutch design agency.) Light and creamy tones are contrasted by dramatic pops of color and texture. The metallic elements, in particular, shine bright due to the abundance of natural light.

With an interior volume of 437 GT, the yacht can accommodate 12 guests and nine crew over its four decks. A typical layout may include four cabins on the main deck and two on the lower deck. Creating secluded, private areas would make the vessel well-suited to charter.

As standard, the B120 is equipped with twin diesel engines that give her a cruising speed of between 10 and 12 knots and a maximum speed of 14 knots. In addition, a tank capacity of 54,100 liters allows her to store enough fuel for a range of over 4,000 nautical miles.

B120 Explorer superyacht: Collaboration by Phathom Studio and Bering Yachts

The B120 marks Phathom Studio’s first-ever design collaboration with Bering Yachts to develop the full design of a flexible, charter-friendly explorer offering big-boat amenities in a sub 500-GT package.

Her interior design, penned by Phathom, follows a soft and seamless visual language where light and creamy tones are balanced by a more dramatic use of color, textures, and punctuated by metallic elements and an abundance of natural light.

A flexible and functional layout was meticulously studied to appeal to both charter as well as owner usage and features an array of innovative spaces and amenities not seen on this size of vessel.

Phathom aimed to create a dynamic and sensitively-balanced exterior. Much consideration was given to the overall proportion of the vessel to visually reduce the superstructure height in comparison to length, as many explorers tend to feel too high in this size segment. This purposeful yet elegant exterior is sure to stand the test of time.

Cruising the Moskva River: A short guide to boat trips in Russia’s capital

There’s hardly a better way to absorb Moscow’s atmosphere than on a ship sailing up and down the Moskva River. While complicated ticketing, loud music and chilling winds might dampen the anticipated fun, this checklist will help you to enjoy the scenic views and not fall into common tourist traps.

How to find the right boat?

There are plenty of boats and selecting the right one might be challenging. The size of the boat should be your main criteria.

Plenty of small boats cruise the Moskva River, and the most vivid one is this yellow Lay’s-branded boat. Everyone who has ever visited Moscow probably has seen it.

This option might leave a passenger disembarking partially deaf as the merciless Russian pop music blasts onboard. A free spirit, however, will find partying on such a vessel to be an unforgettable and authentic experience that’s almost a metaphor for life in modern Russia: too loud, and sometimes too welcoming. Tickets start at $13 (800 rubles) per person.

Bigger boats offer smoother sailing and tend to attract foreign visitors because of their distinct Soviet aura. Indeed, many of the older vessels must have seen better days. They are still afloat, however, and getting aboard is a unique ‘cultural’ experience. Sometimes the crew might offer lunch or dinner to passengers, but this option must be purchased with the ticket. Here is one such  option  offering dinner for $24 (1,490 rubles).

If you want to travel in style, consider Flotilla Radisson. These large, modern vessels are quite posh, with a cozy restaurant and an attentive crew at your service. Even though the selection of wines and food is modest, these vessels are still much better than other boats.

Surprisingly, the luxurious boats are priced rather modestly, and a single ticket goes for $17-$32 (1,100-2,000 rubles); also expect a reasonable restaurant bill on top.

How to buy tickets?

Women holding photos of ships promise huge discounts to “the young and beautiful,” and give personal invitations for river tours. They sound and look nice, but there’s a small catch: their ticket prices are usually more than those purchased online.

“We bought tickets from street hawkers for 900 rubles each, only to later discover that the other passengers bought their tickets twice as cheap!”  wrote  (in Russian) a disappointed Rostislav on a travel company website.

Nevertheless, buying from street hawkers has one considerable advantage: they personally escort you to the vessel so that you don’t waste time looking for the boat on your own.

Prices start at $13 (800 rubles) for one ride, and for an additional $6.5 (400 rubles) you can purchase an unlimited number of tours on the same boat on any given day.

Flotilla Radisson has official ticket offices at Gorky Park and Hotel Ukraine, but they’re often sold out.

Buying online is an option that might save some cash. Websites such as  this   offer considerable discounts for tickets sold online. On a busy Friday night an online purchase might be the only chance to get a ticket on a Flotilla Radisson boat.

This  website  (in Russian) offers multiple options for short river cruises in and around the city center, including offbeat options such as ‘disco cruises’ and ‘children cruises.’ This other  website  sells tickets online, but doesn’t have an English version. The interface is intuitive, however.

Buying tickets online has its bad points, however. The most common is confusing which pier you should go to and missing your river tour.

“I once bought tickets online to save with the discount that the website offered,” said Igor Shvarkin from Moscow. “The pier was initially marked as ‘Park Kultury,’ but when I arrived it wasn’t easy to find my boat because there were too many there. My guests had to walk a considerable distance before I finally found the vessel that accepted my tickets purchased online,” said the man.

There are two main boarding piers in the city center:  Hotel Ukraine  and  Park Kultury . Always take note of your particular berth when buying tickets online.

Where to sit onboard?

Even on a warm day, the headwind might be chilly for passengers on deck. Make sure you have warm clothes, or that the crew has blankets ready upon request.

The glass-encased hold makes the tour much more comfortable, but not at the expense of having an enjoyable experience.

Getting off the boat requires preparation as well. Ideally, you should be able to disembark on any pier along the way. In reality, passengers never know where the boat’s captain will make the next stop. Street hawkers often tell passengers in advance where they’ll be able to disembark. If you buy tickets online then you’ll have to research it yourself.

There’s a chance that the captain won’t make any stops at all and will take you back to where the tour began, which is the case with Flotilla Radisson. The safest option is to automatically expect that you’ll return to the pier where you started.
