Bering 165: Freedom Without Limits

Some yachts are built for the marina. The Bering 165 is built for the world.

At 49.4 meters long and 9 meters wide, she’s the newest flagship of the Bering Yachts fleet — and a bold statement in the world of explorer yachts. Tough enough to cross oceans, refined enough to feel like your favorite home, she blends serious capability with comfort.

“We wanted to create a yacht that could take you literally anywhere — from the tropics to the Arctic — and still feel warm, inviting, and beautifully put together,” says Alexei Mikhailov, CEO and Founder of Bering Yachts. “The B165 is that yacht.”

Born for the Ocean, Built for the Long Haul

With a full-displacement steel hull, aluminum superstructure, and a gross tonnage of 499 GT, the B165 is an ocean-crossing powerhouse. Twin 1,300 HP Caterpillar engines give her a comfortable 10-knot cruising speed (up to 15 knots if you feel like stretching her legs). A 65,000-liter fuel tank means 5,000+ nautical miles of range — enough to make the world your cruising ground.

And while she’s built like a tank, she rides like a dream — advanced stabilization keeps things smooth both at anchor and underway.

Design with a Pulse

The B165 is more than steel, aluminum, and engineering diagrams. She’s a space designed for living, relaxing, and sharing moments. That’s where Valentin Design, a Swiss studio known for its refined touch, came in.

The B165 is a true crossover explorer,” says the Valentin Design team. “She combines the practicality of a transoceanic vessel with the sophistication of a yacht designed for memorable experiences. Every detail — from the storage for tenders and toys, to the way spaces work in different climates — was about creating unforgettable moments at sea.

Life Onboard

  • Main Deck — A bright saloon, two large VIP suites, and a forward space that can be your private cinema or an extra guest cabin. The aft deck? Choose between a swimming pool and an expansive beach club.
  • Owner’s Deck — Nearly 70 m² of pure privacy, with a suite, sky lounge, bar, and two Jacuzzis (forward and aft). Plus your own sunbeds, dining area, and service pantry.
  • Guest Spaces — Three more guest cabins on the lower deck, a cinema, game room, lounges, and every reason to stay aboard a little longer.
  • Crew Comfort — Five crew cabins, a well-equipped galley, and a captain’s cabin just steps from the wheelhouse. A happy crew means a happy owner.

And yes — there’s a proper crow’s nest on top for 360-degree views, stargazing, and quiet moments.

Ready for Anything — Even Charter

With her range, volume, and innovative layout, the B165 is perfect for private adventures or the charter market. She can be your personal floating retreat or a revenue-generating charter star. Either way, she’s designed to deliver a seamless mix of privacy, comfort, and freedom.

“We see the B165 as a symbol of a new generation of explorer yachts,” adds Alexei Mikhailov. “Owners today want more than a beautiful boat — they want the freedom to explore, stay independent for longer, and still enjoy the comforts of a luxury home. That’s exactly what she delivers.”

The Bering 165 isn’t just our flagship. She’s a statement: You don’t have to choose between rugged and refined. You can have both.
