Rock X: Inside the latest unit in Vripack's "pocket explorer" series

Evadne Yachts has offered a first look inside Rock X, the fourth unit in its Rock 85 series. This follows the yacht's delivery last month, ahead of her debut at the Cannes Yachting Festival.

The 27.3-metre series marks Evadne Yachts' first foray into the motor yacht market, having previously specialised in sailing boats. The first unit, Rock, was delivered in 2018.

Characterised by angular, masculine lines and geometric glazing, the model is designed by Dutch studio Vripack with project management by Tufan and Brothers.

Accommodation is across four cabins, including an en suite owner's cabin located forward on the main deck and complete with a private balcony on the bow. Guest accommodation is located on the lower deck alongside quarters for four crew. The main saloon features sofa seating, a separate dining area and access to an al fresco seating area aft.

Powered by twin CAT engines, the yacht can reach a maximum speed of 15.5 knots and a range of 2,000 nautical miles at nine knots. Other key numbers include a 6.5-metre beam and a draft of 1.8 metres.

In a world exclusive, Vripack spoke to BOAT International about Project Zero, a mission to build a luxurious 69-metre sailing yacht that doesn’t use a drop of fossil fuel.
