COMMENTS

Created to face challenging expeditions in the utmost comfort and safety, the 76.6m full custom-built expedition vessel YERSIN built by Chantiers Piriou in 2015, brings unparalleled capabilities.

YERSIN is a full custom-built vessel, designed with world-class exploration and self-sufficient features under experienced project management. She is tailored to appeal to owners with a passion for adventure.

Compliant with SOLAS passenger ship regulations and having completed her 10-year class survey, YERSIN ensures the highest standards of safety and operational integrity. This vessel was designed for cost-effective operations, with maintenance costs factored into her technical concept.

YERSIN is the only full diesel electric expedition vessel available for sale. Building such a vessel with an identical comprehensive specification today would require more than double of her value.

YERSIN is unlike any other. Commissioned by an experienced yacht owner & designed by PJ Kubis, YERSIN's dark hull demonstrates a distinctive aesthetic, complementing her robust exterior design engineered to navigate through extreme conditions.

This vessel's defining characteristics lie in her ability to venture into remote and unspoiled environments in waters from -20°C to +50°C. Equipped with a dynamic positioning technology, she adheres to a protocol of no anchoring to prevent seabed damage. Her underwater hull coating with silicon “non-biocide” and antifouling enables access to maritime protected regions. With her azipods enhancing manoeuvrability, YERSIN is well-equipped to navigate diverse waterways, from open seas to inland lakes and rivers.

YERSIN’s Schottel diesel electric propulsion system provides economical fuel consumption with an autonomy of 12,000 nm, and is paired with a 99.8% exhaust filtration system. Onboard she has advanced water treatment and recycling solutions with an oversized dry and cold food storage and garbage treatment facility allowing for extended self-sufficient cruising. YERSIN’s autonomy is also obtained by an extensive spare parts stock and a fully equipped engineering department allowing to carry on most maintenance and repairs onboard.

YERSIN’s interior features a guest elevator serving all six decks, expansive living spaces and class certified furnishings.

The main deck offers a spacious and comfortable environment for extended stays with large groups. This space comprises a dining area which can also be used for projection and has all connections for video conferencing, a welcome area and a fully equipped bar.

The upper deck offers a well-positioned meridian sofa which enjoys scenic views through the large windows and is complemented with a dining area, bar and sushi bar. On the same deck, there is a library and a cinema with 4K projection.

The pool deck features a sheltered lounging space and is equipped with a teppanyaki galley along with two large sun pads. The outdoor living spaces have been designed to resist the most extreme weather conditions while allowing guests to appreciate uninterrupted viewing points.

On the lower deck, there is a wellness area including a gym, massage room, hair salon, jacuzzi and hammam. Meanwhile the aft swimming platform provides tender access through to the diving station.

YERSIN’s true attraction lies in research features such as a laboratory, and a versatile classroom. A section is designated for cleaning of outdoor equipment, all essential for extended exploration voyages, as is the presence of a hospital.

The interior of YERSIN has been meticulously thought through by the Owner together with PJ Kubis and interior outfitting by Agencement Paul Champs. Her decoration recalls the great era of upscale passenger ships such as Le France, featuring Maison Lalique crafts and les Messageries Maritimes de La Ciotat art work. Her walls are decorated with varying wood grains and inventive light. Furniture is dressed in a range of textures and earthy tones, creating a calm environment to spend time onboard.

YERSIN for sale has accommodation for up to 18 guests across eight cabins. Her Owner's suite is equipped with a private pantry, a walk-in wardrobe, king size bed, two private terraces, an office and two salons. The ensuite bathroom features a bathtub, shower, toilet and bidet. The remainder of guests stay across one VIP cabin on the bridge deck, four convertible double guest cabins on the lower deck and two triple guests cabins on the lower deck, all with ensuite. There is further accommodation for a crew of up to 24 across 16 cabins.

YERSIN comes with an extensive range of tenders and toys, making her perfectly equipped for large groups wanting to explore the surroundings. Her tenders include one 11.00m Wajer Osprey 37, two 7.50m Zodiac Hurricane tenders, one 7.30m Munson landing craft aluminium tender and two Professional Zodiac gamme AKA Marine RIBs. Her water toys include two kayaks, two O’Brien water skis, one wakeboard, a Tiwal 3 Sailing dinghy, two paddle boards along with a range of diving equipment including compressors.
