Bering Yachts presents B76, a steel under-24-meter expedition yacht

With great pride, Bering Yachts releases the first photo and video footage of M/Y B76 Lemanja, recently added to our fleet of under-24-meter boats. The first and only absolutely custom boat built by Bering in this size is a true blue-water exploring vessel made for long voyages. 

Rugged outside and powerful inside, this boat has been constructed as a full-fetched luxury house. Lemanja is surprisingly spacious and comfortable for her length. Her state-of-the-art design is optimized to provide the owner with the full operation autonomy. With this homy feeling you might even forget that you are traversing an ocean on a yacht. 

Modern internal and external outlook, use of luxury materials, and attention to details will satisfy the most particular demands. Six guests will enjoy this roomy and safe vessel. Bering 76 allows for a perfect combination of exploration and fun.

“Our client was looking for a tough, go-anywhere explorer yacht with an oceanic range, which would also be stable, safe, and quiet,” says Alexei Mikhailov, CEO of Bering Yachts. “The noise-protection on this vessel is exceptional, same for other requirements. Welcome onboard if you like absolute comfort. This is what Bering does best.”

Featuring 130 metric tons of displacement, B76 has a large storage to bolster her range of over 4,000 nautical miles. Twin Cummins QSL 9 engines give Lemanja a maximum speed of 12 knots and a cruising speed of 9 knots. An alternative power source reduces the environmental footprint and increases the boat’s autonomy. Advanced stabilizer systems provide comfort to those susceptible to seasickness at anchor and at sea.

Bering 76 sea trial review: The Turkish trawler yacht with globetrotting ambitions

With nearly 23,000 litres of fuel across seven tanks, this is a seriously long-legged boat

• With 1m seas on the beam, it is surprisingly comfortable, even with the Seakeeper switched off
• The hoist is capable of handling a 794kg tender
• The sundeck gets some useful shelter under way from the pilothouse structure
• In the absence of a main deck helm, the upper station is seriously well equipped
• The elevated helm enjoys massive views through vertical screens
• There’s a relaxed lounge directly aft of the helm station
• The open aft cockpit enjoys plenty of protection from the extended upper deck
• The saloon decor feels more like that of a luxury motoryacht than an ocean-going passagemaker

The primary dining area sits on the main deck forward

• Forward and aft zones are split by a central galley and flybridge stairwell

With just three cabins on the lower deck, the space on offer is exceptional

• The port double gets a neat transverse bathroom
• A two-tier engineroom puts the engines down and the generators up

A part-completed Bering 76 hull provided two serial boat owners with a blank canvas to create the heavy-displacement adventure yacht of their dreams...

After many years of high-speed cruising in fibreglass planing boats, two experienced owners decided to investigate the possibilities of longer-range adventures in a seaworthy, heavy-displacement craft.

Their new Bering 76, Lemanja , is a full-custom yacht. This would normally have meant a gap of several years between initial consultations and final launch, but the clients were able to reduce this waiting time by taking over a part-completed project at the Bering shipyard.

The 76fter had originally been commissioned by an American owner, and her empty steel hull and aluminium superstructure lay waiting in the shipyard – a blank canvas for the couple to complete.

Bering was founded in 2007 by Russian-born Alexei Mikhailov, who was brought up during the Soviet era in Magadan, just across the Kamchatka Peninsula from the Bering Sea itself. He’s 59.

He built the first six Berings in China but moved his operation to Turkey to take advantage of the market access and relaxed regulatory and tax regime of the Antalya free port, on Turkey’s southern coast.

Although Lemanja is a one-off, Alexei is now focusing his operation on semi-custom yachts, and in particular Bering’s 75ft and 80ft designs. There are currently 14 boats under construction in the yard.

Bering 70 yacht tour: The ultimate long-range steel explorer yacht?

They have big plans. When we caught up with them they had only recently taken delivery but had already done one overnighter down to Cyprus and numerous day trips, getting to grips with their new boat, evaluating her handling, and working out how to manage her numerous systems.

The trip along the length of the Med to Gibraltar was to be essentially a shakedown cruise. After that they plan to head north, calling in at Falmouth en route to the Irish Sea, and then, all being well, onwards to the Faeroes, Iceland, Greenland, Canada and ultimately the US.

It will present quite a learning curve, for Lemanja is a complicated boat. She is built to go to sea, with impressive fuel capacity in seven tanks, and five watertight compartments in her hull, which is of 8mm plate below the waterline and 6mm above. Fully loaded, she displaces close on 150 tonnes.

Her battery power is enough to run all on-board services for 12 hours at anchor without using the generators, and she has a Seatorque drivetrain involving flexible shaft couplings, soft engine mounts and a horizontal prop shaft angle, all of which are designed to reduce noise and vibration to the absolute minimum.

The engines are mounted very low down in the hull. So low, in fact, that the engine room is a two-tier affair, with immediate access through the watertight door to the generators and to the technical area in the lazarette, while the twin Cummins diesels lurk beneath the shiny treadplate underfoot.

Apparently it’s just a five-minute job to unscrew the plates if you need to get to them. Lemanja has a long, open-plan main deck arrangement with an informal seating area communicating with the cockpit, an expansive marble-topped bar and galley, and an excellent dining area forward surrounded by windows with a door out to the side deck.

It looks like the interior of a modern motor yacht rather than an ocean passagemaker – my first thought was that the galley worktop could probably benefit from some taller fiddle rails – but it’s down below where the owners’ cruising ambitions are given more expression.

Drafted originally for four cabins, Lemanja has just three, with the entirety of the starboard guest cabin area given over to food storage and refrigeration – a pantry of the size you might find on a superyacht .

Elsewhere on the lower deck Lemanja ’s midships owner’s cabin , forward VIP and port-side guest double all have full-size beds, generous headroom and plenty of stowage space, including an impressive walk-in wardrobe in the master.

The double berth in the forward cabin is rather high – the owners wanted it to be a full 6ft (1.83m) wide, which meant it had to go up into the flare of the bow. But as he pointed out, this has provided a lot of extra space beneath the mattress for stowage, in addition to the huge drawers under the foot of the bed.

We met the owners in Antalya early one morning, not far from Bering’s. There is a slightly developing-world aura to the shipyard, as if Western standards of health and safety have yet to make inroads.

This refreshing air of improvisation comes with a downside, of course – you have to watch your step lest you gouge your ankle on an offcut of steel plate, or plunge down an unguarded hatchway – but as a counter, the yard likes all its customers to engage a surveyor to keep a close eye on the build of their yachts.

“We insist on having surveyors,” says Alexei. “Captains don’t know enough. We learn a lot from our owners’ surveyors.” They will certainly have learned plenty from Lemanja ’s. When the yacht was launched, his German surveyor found no fewer than 320 snags, mostly minor, but the owners say they were all dealt with efficiently.

Perhaps the most significant concerned the issue of ballast. At the surveyor’s recommendation more than nine tonnes of it were added to Lemanja , low down in the hull, which the owners reckon have stiffened her up considerably.

Lemanja ’s beam of less than 20 feet was specified by the original US client to suit his berth in Florida, and she has quite a slender planform for her length and height. Bering’s 75 semi-custom model, in contrast, is nearly 5ft wider.

There was a slightly gloomy quality to our test day, with a grey overcast sky and the snow-capped peaks of the Taurus mountains just inland lending a slight chill to the scene. But conditions were benign enough, and the sea was calm as we set off from Setur Marina for our cruise down to Kemer.

With the wheelhouse on the upper deck so far from the engines we expected it to be quiet but 43dB(A) at ten knots seemed pretty impressive. Progress was calm and very relaxing – just what you want in a long-range cruiser – and we recorded a two-way maximum speed of 11.5 knots, although the owners felt that between 8.5 and 9.5 knots would give the best combination of speed and fuel economy.

Lemanja ’s range is vast – over 4,500nm at 8.6 knots – thanks to her astounding fuel capacity of 22,700 litres. There were limits to what we might learn of her seagoing capabilities on such a mild-mannered day but a few weeks later the owners emailed with an update from Greece.

The Bering 76 is surprisingly comfortable, even with the Seakeeper switched off

With 1m seas on the beam she was surprisingly comfortable, he reported, her roll being manageable even with the Seakeeper switched off. In head seas she was dry and stable.

Big following seas turned out to be her least favourite point of sail, as she exhibited a tendency to yaw that was pronounced enough to prompt the owners to switch off the autopilot and take manual control.

Overall, though, the owners seem happy. At the time of writing, the couple have made it to Mallorca, where they have called in to attend to some routine maintenance. Gibraltar is the next stop, to top up the tanks with duty-free diesel, and then onward into the wild blue yonder.

New Bering 76 with 4,000-nm Range

Bering Yachts has launched its new steel-hulled B76 Lemanja long-range explorer yacht, with a range of 4,000 nm.

Lemanja is the smallest custom yacht that Bering has ever made. The Turkish builder’s fleet runs from 65 to 145 feet. It says that while Lemanja is rugged on the outside, ready to take on waters all around the world, the interior “is constructed as a full-fledged luxury house.”

The new Bering has three staterooms for six guests on its lower accommodations deck; a luxurious master and two guest cabins. “Our client was looking for a tough, go-anywhere explorer yacht with an oceanic range, which would also be stable, safe and quiet,” said Alexi Mikhailov, the CEO of Bering Yachts.

The yacht has both sophisticated stabilization and a state-of-the-art noise-reduction system. It also has extra storage space built into each deck to hold provisions for a major cruise.

The salon is bright, with full-length windows. The skylounge up top is built like an upscale rec room at home, with the usual sofas and bar center, but in this case also with windows offering panoramic views of the world outside.

Power comes from twin 404-hp Cummins QSL 9 diesels, producing a top speed of 12 knots and a cruising speed of 9 knots. The yacht also carries a solar-powered, rechargeable battery bank to reduce its environmental footprint and add to its range.

The B76 measures 76’ 3” with a 19-foot beam and a displacement of 130 tons. It has an aluminum superstructure.

Berings are made in Antalya, Turkey, with offices in Fort Lauderdale. Read more at http://beringyachts.com and see the video below:

New Flagship for Bering Yachts: The B165

• By Yachting Staff
• March 19, 2024

Bering Yachts , known for its steel expedition-style trawler yachts, introduced a new flagship B165 explorer yacht at the Dubai International Boat Show.

“She keeps all the ruggedness, stability, range and all-weather capability while representing a Mediterranean and Caribbean approach to life: easygoing, relaxed and full of comfort,” the company stated in a press release. “You are still traveling in your home, but with so much more open space and fresh air that the onboard life becomes a full-circle indoor and outdoor experience.”

The shipyard describes the B165 as “Bering to the bone, but with a luxury twist.” On the main deck’s elongated after section, there’s a swimming pool surrounded by sunbeds. Folding bulwarks can expand this relaxation even more, and the pool can be covered for use as stowage for water toys and other equipment. There’s also space here for two tenders.

Inside on the main deck are dining and lounging areas, along with two VIP staterooms. An additional room at the bow can be outfitted as a guest stateroom, or as an onboard cinema.

The owners’ deck has more than 750 square feet of space, including a sleeping area, a head, and a lounge with a bar, table and seating. An open space aft on the owners’ deck has a table for alfresco dining, while at the bow, there’s a hot tub and a lounge. Crew have access to a private service room for preparing and serving meals, with a dumbwaiter that connects to a similar service area on the main deck, and to the galley on the lower deck.

Also on the lower deck are three guest staterooms, four cabins to accommodate eight crew, and a crew mess. An additional cabin on this deck can be used for supernumeraries such as nannies, guides and masseurs.

Up on the bridge deck, there’s a lounge with a bar, an outdoor cinema, a day head and a firepit. The captain’s quarters are here as well.

Above that deck is a crow’s nest with a hardtop where guests can have an unobstructed 360-degree view of the yacht’s surroundings.

Eco-friendly design is also inherent in the Bering 165, according to company founder Alexei Mikhailov: “We are building responsibly. Designing a large engine room, we definitely had alternative energy solutions in mind. There is plenty of space to accommodate hybrid applications and install a big battery bank.”

Power for the 499-gross-ton vessel will be twin 1,300-horsepower Caterpillar C32 engines, with a reported cruise speed of 12 knots and a maximum speed of 15 knots. Fuel capacity is nearly 18,500 gallons, which the team at Bering says gives the B165 a range of more than 4,000 nautical miles. ABT-Trac systems are installed for guest comfort.

Does the Bering Yachts B165 have a steel hull? Yes, with an aluminum superstructure.
