ARKSEN 85 for sale

Building on the success of Arksen’s first two 85 models, we are delighted to present the third hull in this exciting series for sale.

Available in 18 months from signature, this is an exceptional opportunity to become part of Arksen’s progressive approach to yacht construction and their exploration philosophy. Each Arksen vessel is designed and built to allow owners to explore the globe, with the confidence, comfort, independence and efficiency expected of a serious, modern, long-range cruising yacht.

Built at the Wight Shipyard in the UK on behalf of Arksen and featuring both exterior design and naval architecture by Humphreys Yacht Design, this rugged 27.4m all-aluminium motoryacht is an ambitious explorer built for true expeditionary travel.

The Arksen 85’s long-range capabilities afford unrestricted global navigation, and high quality ‘commercial grade’ components allow enhanced reliability and greater redundancy. Able to operate safely in extreme environments, but equally

capable when cruising in more accessible waters, the Arksen 85 has a unique versatility with enormous appeal. Whether on ocean passage, exploring remote coastlines or relaxing self-sufficiently in anchorages, owners can rest assured that their vessel is designed to allow them to focus purely on the enjoyment of that experience.

All aspects of the yacht and its operation have been given meticulous eco consideration, and those seeking a more eco-friendly and environmentally conscious yachting option will appreciate the Tesumo decks, solar power banks, thermal recovery systems, highly efficient hull form, and hybrid propulsion option.

The interior schemes have been conceived by award-winning superyacht design firm, Design Unlimited. Aligning with the Arksen brand’s core values, sustainability and functionality were central to the design brief. Materials have been selected to enhance the onboard experience and minimise damage to the environment wherever possible. Interesting features include galley worktops made from recycled plastics, upholstery that utilises waste fibres from the fashion industry or recovered ocean plastics, and innovative deck/flooring surfaces.

The design of the interior can be customised to the client’s requirements, with huge scope of choice for materials, finishes, colour schemes, fixtures and fittings.

The interior layout comprises a lobby, day head and open plan lounge/galley on the main deck with direct deck access, and stairs leading to the bridge. A second saloon lounge is located on the bridge deck and is equipped with a chart table/study area.

The cabin arrangement can be configured as eight guests in four or six in three. All located on the lower deck, the full-beam master suite and cabins can be fixed or convertible between twin and double berth, and additional bunks are also an option.

Deck spaces include an al fresco dining setup to aft with adjacent BBQ grill, an aft deck lounge, and bench seating forward of the bridge.

The Arksen 85 can be operated with minimal crew (quarters for two or four as required) and the platform has been enhanced to permit the stowage of a larger tender (up to 5.5m) as well as a larger and reinforced aft deck with a payload of 4,000kg – able to accommodate a vehicle or a submersible. There’s further stowage space for bikes, water toys and diving equipment in the aft lazarette, and removable davits allow for easy deployment and recovery.
