The launch of 30.5m (100′) motor yacht HULL 196 created quite a stir as she emerged from the shed to show off her bright red hull for the first time. AB Yachts are the shipyard credited with the construction of this AB100 which is reminiscent of a Formula 1 car.

The similarities with Formula 1 don’t stop at the sporty profile but are also reflected in the amazing performance – HULL 196 can reach top speeds of 50 knots thanks to her triple Caterpillar engines. Plus, her shallow 1.3m draft means she can slip into the most secluded bays and with superior garage engineering can quickly load and unload the tender and toys.

A custom infinity pool on the bow, an open roof for dining under the stars and four fabulous suites make this an exciting project and one the owner has been fully participant in from the outset.

We look forward to bringing you more information about progress as she completes sea trials and hopefully we will get a glimpse of her interiors. In the meantime, if the idea of cruising in style on board a yacht with a bold red hull appeals to you, there are some fabulous examples available for charter.
