Yersin

Seriously capable research vessel

Directly inspired by Jacques Cousteau’s Calypso, Yersin is a true maritime masterpiece dedicated to adventure, sustainability, and scientific education.

One of the world’s cleanest vessels, a highly efficient diesel electric propulsion system gives a vast range, while green touches like the high-tech exhaust filtering system mean she’s achieved a Cleanship class notation – with little impact on the environment, Yersin can venture into fragile ecosystems where others can't. Similarly, an all-weather ice-class hull makes her a true ‘go anywhere’ discovery machine.

While she places autonomy and reliability over luxury, that's not to say this explorer has skimped on her superyacht comforts. Delight in expansive living spaces, a sundeck with pool and a cinema with 4K projection. A spectacular spa deck also includes the likes of a gym, hammam, massage room and hot tub.

Beyond the interior, facilities include a swimming platform, dive centre and compressor on the lower aft deck. Just above is a dedicated crane for launching a sea plane or sub. Permanent onboard kit includes a sporting tender, two bulletproof Zodiacs and a quad bike.
