CL Yachts completes sea trials of firsat CLB65 SUV ahead of Hong Kong client
previews
CL Yachts has successfully completed sea trials of the first CLB65 SUV, marking the
next milestone in the development of its new 19.7-metre model. Following her
launch earlier this year at the shipyard’s production facility in Zhuhai, China, the
yacht has now arrived in Hong Kong, where she will be presented to selected
clients and brokers leading up to her official Asian premiere.
Designed as a sportier, more versatile evolution of the CLB65 platform, CLB65 SUV
combines the practicality of an SUV-style layout with the performance, comfort
and build quality associated with CL Yachts’ B-Series.
During sea trials, the yacht underwent comprehensive testing validating her
performance, handling and onboard systems. Powered by twin Caterpillar C18 or
Volvo Penta D13 engines, CLB65 SUV delivered a top speed of 28 knots at half
load, while optional features such as the ZF JMS control system further enhanced
her maneuverability and ease of operation.
Stepping inside, her contemporary interiors, designed by Supertomato Studio,
harness both natural materials and understated detailing, with owners able to
select walnut or white oak finishes. The aft deck, galley and salon are arranged on
the main deck to create a continuous living area. Accommodation is found on the
lower deck and comprises a full-beam master stateroom, a VIP cabin, and a
convertible guest cabin.
”The launch of CLB65 SUV is a major step in the ever-evolving journey of our
brand. With its dynamic exterior, owner-oriented interiors, and robust
performance, CLB65 SUV embodies our commitment to innovation, functionality,
and contemporary yacht design, making it perfect for year-round exploration,”
said Martin Lo, Director of CL Yachts.
From August to November, CL Yachts will host an exclusive private viewing
programme in Hong Kong for brokers and selected clients, offering an opportunity
to experience the new model ahead of its public debut.
CLB65 SUV will make its official Asian premiere at the Hong Kong Boat Show in
December, where visitors will have the opportunity to discover CL Yachts’ latest
addition to the B-Series.
