On the steel side, painting of the Ocean Explorer 67 is now nearing completion, bringing the yacht clearly into its next stage.

Outside our shipyard, work has already begun on the cutting package for a new Ocean Explorer 72.

Within the Enigma series, three yachts are actively taking shape at our yard. The Enigma 50 and Enigma 59 are in the phase of technical installation and interior outfitting, while the Enigma 65 is being prepared for painting. In addition, two Enigma 54 projects are currently in the early stages of hull construction outside our shipyard.

On the aluminum side, the ACE 61 has completed its painting phase, with full focus now on interior outfitting and technical installation. The 52S is approaching delivery and is now in its final stage before handover. Beyond our yard, progress continues as well, with the 57S currently being painted, while the custom 54 ft yacht Tempest is in the hull construction phase.

 

 

Across all series, one thing is clear: multiple yachts, multiple stages, all moving forward in parallel.
This also makes it the perfect moment to visit our shipyard. With so many yachts in build, it offers a unique opportunity to experience the different phases of construction up close.
We would be pleased to welcome you and walk you through the process in person. Simply reply to this email, and we will arrange a suitable moment.

Last week, Steeler Yachts proudly launched the first Ocean Explorer 67, marking another important milestone for our Ocean Explorer range. More than just a new model, the Ocean Explorer 67 demonstrates what it means to build a truly custom yacht. Designed around her owners’ specific requirements, she features a unique asymmetric layout with a single side deck, creating the spacious interior volumes of a much larger yacht while maintaining a practical 5.60-metre beam for their cruising plans.
