The second unit in the 52.6-metre Mengi Yay Virtus XP series has entered outfitting at the yard's facilities in Tuzla, Turkey. Delivery is scheduled for March 2026, with the build being overseen by Antalyachts.
The project, known as NB113, is described as a capable, "go anywhere" vessel and has an exterior and interior by long-standing collaborators VYD Studio. Engineering is owed to Van Oossanen Naval Architects, with key numbers including an 8.9-metre beam, a 2.6-metre draught at full load and a volume that sits just under 500GT.
Accommodation is across five cabins, including an open-plan master cabin positioned on the main deck. Renderings reveal a light, contemporary aesthetic dominated by a white colour palette and bright floor-to-ceiling windows. The main saloon features curved sofas arranged around a coffee table, with a formal dining area adjacent.
Al fresco highlights include a main deck swimming pool, a Jacuzzi on the bow and an upper deck helipad – which becomes a lounge when not in use. The sundeck has a forward-facing bar, providing far-reaching ocean views, alongside sunloungers and an outdoor dining option.
The model is expected to reach a maximum speed of 16 knots and a cruising speed of 12 knots when propelled by twin Caterpillar C32 engines, though hybrid propulsion is also available. She is currently for sale with Fraser and is asking €29,900,000.
According to BOATPro, Mengi Yay has seven yachts currently on order or actively under construction. This includes the first unit in its NL50 Plus series, designed by the team at Nuvolari Lenard.
