Referred to by the shipyard as ‘The Gentleman Classic 160’, the 49m motoryacht comprises classic lines which, according to the shipyard, “capture the look as well as the feel of a golden era in luxurious yachting.”
Currently located in the shipyard’s Istanbul-based shipyard, the steel-hulled superyacht with six cabins for 12 guests is powered by two MAN D2842LE 527kW engines, and has a cruising speed of 13 knots whilst able to reach a maximum speed of 15 knots.
The Bilgin Classic 160 is currently for sale through the shipyard with an asking price of €11.5 million and will make her public debut at the Cannes Boat Show in September later this year.
The second Bilgin Classic 160 is currently under construction and scheduled for a late 2013 launch.
