An exclusive look behind the scenes
Here you will find news from Bering Yacht Shipyard, from design to Sea Trials and lore of Explorer ships.
Fins vs Gyros (Fins vs Gyros)
Rolling is the main cause of seasickness on board, another big factor is yawing, moving from side to side. This article explains the advantages of gyros and fins
Ice Class Yachts - A New Era of Adventure
Bering can build their Explorer yachts to ice class compliance. This allows the yachts to navigate in up to 50cm of broken ice. Explore untouched areas like Greenland, Iceland or Canada.
Joining steel to aluminum with Triclad
Triclad joining strips are bimetallic strips or blocks used to join different metals together using welding technology available in shipyards.
Hydraulics vs. electrics on yachts
Hydraulic systems are most efficient when moving and holding heavy loads, especially in harsh environments and in applications that require frequent or constant operation.
Are Bering yachts long range capable with transatlantic range?
The engines of Bering yachts are selected with fuel economy in mind. In addition, the hull shape allows for a voluminous interior, including an engine room that can accommodate additional equipment such as water purifiers, generators and inverters.
Steel ocean yachts
Steel fleets dominate the world's navies, in research vessels and commercial shipping as well as in expedition cruise ships.
The design approach
Your first impression of a Bering yacht will be lasting, because these vessels exude character. Even their exterior reveals that they are both robust and powerful.
Steel for more reparability
Owning a steel vessel increases the likelihood that a simple repair will not become a time-consuming and costly nuisance in an otherwise beautiful cruising area.
Low abrasion thanks to steel construction
A strong and abrasion resistant hull provides valuable safety.
Fire resistance for yachts?
The total flammable mass on board is quite small, so it is much easier and faster to extinguish the fire if, contrary to expectations, it should break out.
The best components
Explorers destined for delivery in Europe are built according to CE requirements. Bering yachts can also be ordered to meet various classification societies, including ABS, Lloyd's, RINA and others.
Flag states and their role in the yachting industry - yacht flagging explained
The main flag authorities in the yachting industry are: The UK-MCA, Cayman Islands, Isle of Man, Malta, Marshall Islands, Italy and Luxembourg.
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.
The advantages of a displacement hull (Full Displacement Hull)
Decades of field experience show that a heavy, fully displaced vessel with a carefully designed buoyancy hull and low center of gravity provides a very comfortable, stable and safe passage.
Semi Custom Yacht Construction
Bering uses a semi custom approach that allows all our vessels to be tailored to your specific requirements.
What is an Explorer Yacht?
An Explorer Yacht is a vessel built specifically to provide comfortable and safe long-distance cruising to remote areas of the world.
Yacht hybrid drive advantages (part 1)
There are many environmental benefits to using hybrid propulsion, and all of these benefits are consistent with the style of expedition and research yachts built by Bering Yachts
An incredible range of possibilities
Savvy buyers create comparison charts to compare competing models. We encourage you to do so and are confident that any Bering we offer will meet or exceed the detailed analysis you develop to create your ultimate Passagemaker boat.
Rugged by nature
The ship shape of Bering yachts is put through its paces and convinces with absolute comfort, as well as durability.
Bulbous bow and course stability in explorer yachts
The bulbous bow plays an essential role in the design of the Bering. It reduces pitching in heavy seas and, in conjunction with the forward watertight bulkhead, creates a collision space that provides an extra measure of safety.
