Cabins

An owner's suite that opens onto its own forward terrace

The owner's suite reaches its own terrace directly, at the front of the boat, laid out with sunbeds and seating benches. YOT offers the 53 in three- and four-cabin versions, each with a skipper cabin.

A tilting door that opens the cockpit to the sea

A tilting door, fold-out terraces and uninterrupted circulation are meant to leave the cockpit entirely open. YOT sums the boat up as an open space that opens and closes in the blink of an eye.

A full rooftop above it

Above the saloon is what YOT calls a real rooftop, with a large surface area and open views. The 53 is the first inboard model of the range, and its launch is planned for late 2026.

Built in Portugal, at Catana's new Aveiro yard

It will be built in Portugal at CatanaGroup's new factory in Aveiro, a plant developed for the YOT outboard and inboard ranges. YOT states the design intent as three values: inventiveness, uninhibited design and disruption.
