Bilgin 176 RB

Bilgin 176 RB is a 53.62-metre custom superyacht currently under construction at Bilgin Yachts in Turkey. The project pairs the shipyard's bespoke construction expertise with exterior design and naval architecture by Unique Yacht Design and a fully customised interior by H2 Yacht Design.

The yacht has been commissioned by a repeat Bilgin client, reinforcing the established relationship between the owner, shipyard and design team. This continuity allows the project to build on previous experience while developing a new and highly individual onboard environment.

At 499GT, the yacht makes particularly efficient use of its 53.6-metre length. A 9.25-metre beam and 2.6-metre draught contribute to a substantial yet versatile platform, while a range of more than 5,000 nautical miles at 10.5 knots gives the yacht genuine long-range cruising capability. Her projected top speed is 17 knots.

H2 Yacht Design is responsible for the interior architecture, developing the spaces around the owner's lifestyle and the demands of extended time on board. The yacht accommodates 12 guests across six cabins, with accommodation for six crew plus a captain.

The combination of a sub-500GT volume, generous range and highly personalised interior makes Bilgin 176 RB an interesting example of contemporary 50-metre superyacht design: a yacht engineered for serious cruising while retaining the level of customisation and residential comfort associated with much larger projects.
