Bering Marine has started construction of the 50 SE (Swift Exploration Craft). The hydrofoil-supported catamaran is designed to reach speeds of up to 40 knots. Four diesel engines, each with 294 kilowatts, operate at full load. The fuel capacity of 3,400 litres enables a range of 700 nautical miles at a speed of 25 to 35 knots.
The Turkish shipyard based in the Antalya yacht building centre is primarily targeting owners who want to go on longer day trips or fishing trips. The BM50 will take around twelve months to build and the number one is being built for a European customer who is targeting the Mediterranean.
