Hong Kong-based CL Yachts has presented its latest CLB65 model: a sporty SUV for the sea
The idea behind this compact and versatile entry model in the B-Series was to strike the balance between elegance and functionality. According to the shipyard, it is a reliable vessel built to last, suitable for a wide range of climates and designed with an owner-driver in mind.
The sporty yacht with a length of 19.7 metres (65 ft) will be powered by twin Caterpillar C18 or Volvo Penta D13 engines, which will deliver a top speed of 30 knots.
The calm inviting interior featuring nutural colours was designed by Supertomato Studio. The CLB65’s finishes include such natural materials as walnut and white oak. There are numerous options allowing one to individualise the interior design in accordance with the owner’s preferences.
The CLB65 is a very “social” boat, which is underscored by the main deck’s layout. The aft cockpit, saloon and galley create a generous space for communication, having meals and having fun. The exterior aft cockpit is home to an al fresco dining area, and there’s also a bar counter with high stools. There is also an electric grill, while a table and a sofa can transform into a sunpad.
The well-appointed galley will please anyone keen on cooking, and there is a cosy interior dining area with panoramic windows opposite it.
The lounge area in the main saloon forward, while the port-side window and the sunroof can be opened to let in a refreshing breeze in. There is a helm station to starboard.
Below deck, there are three cabins. AS the beam is 6.05 m. the owner’s full-beam cabin amidships is really spacious. There is a VIP cabin with a skylight, and one more guest cabin with convertible beds. All the cabins are ensuite.
There is a versatile space aft, which can be equipped and used in accordance with the owner’s needs: there can be another guest or crew cabin, storage for water toys or diving gear.
Production of the first CLB65 is set to start in the second quarter of 2025, while the deliveries are expected in the first quarter of 2026.
