Waterproof bulkheads for more safety

You can be comfortable at the helm or aboard a Bering, because all Bering yacht hulls are divided by at least five watertight bulkheads that form six independent chambers.

In addition, Bering designs all tanks to be integral, which means that they actually double the sides of the hull. The covers of the tanks are made of heavy steel plates welded to the hull sides, forming a completely watertight structure. In addition to maximizing otherwise unused space and providing the lowest possible center of gravity, the built-in tanks offer a significant safety advantage. Essentially, a Bering trawler has a double hull, meaning that should the hull itself be penetrated below the waterline, the tank would maintain the watertight integrity of the vessel. This is an exceptional feature not found on most recreational yachts.

Explorer yachts with true watertight bulkheads are a must for your safety.
