A 25.70-metre (84-foot) steel explorer carrying four full decks and 200 gross tons of volume below the 24-metre load line, with more than 5,000 nautical miles of sea-trial-proven range.

A superyacht that stays under twenty-four metres

The Kando 85 brings the steel hull, aluminium superstructure and ocean-crossing range of AvA’s larger Kando series below the 24-metre load line for the first time. At 25.70 metres (84 feet) overall she carries four full decks and roughly 200 gross tons of interior volume, well beyond three-deck yachts of the same length.

Mediterranean to the Caribbean on one tank

Sea trials off Antalya recorded more than 5,000 nautical miles at 9 knots, extending to roughly 12,000 nautical miles at passage speed. That is enough to cross from the Mediterranean to the Caribbean on a single 24,000-litre fuel load.

Comfort measured, not claimed

Independent ISO-accredited laboratory testing recorded about 50 dBA in the owner’s cabin at cruising speed — the level of a quiet library. Vibration in the accommodation areas was measured below the threshold of perception. A full-beam owner’s suite with panoramic windows sits on the main deck, with a foredeck Jacuzzi and generous exterior areas.

An owner-operated superyacht

Her 23.90-metre (78-foot) load line length means she is engineered so her owner can run her, subject to flag state regulations. Crew is optional rather than obligatory, with dedicated quarters for two to three for owners who prefer professional service.

“Drawing a yacht is one thing; bringing her to the water exactly as you drew her is another. Standing on the deck of M/Y V, I feel two decades of dedication, the handprint of every craftsman in Antalya, and the pride of Turkish engineering all at once.”
Atilla Kucukdiker — Founder and naval architect, AvA Yachts
