Silent 120 explorer World Premiere
The brand-new SILENT 120 Explorer has arrived!
An homage back to the days when the brave were constantly seeking unknown horizons – the same way it took an unbroken adventurous spirit to explore the seven seas beyond the limit of one´s imagination, it took a lot of courage to envision and develop the solar electric drivetrain. A fearless attitude is required either way.
As such, the SILENT 120 Explorer is more than a yacht – she is the boldest expression of solar powered yachting yet.
Renowned yacht designer Marco Casali is responsible for the spectacular appearance of the SILENT 120 Explorer. With this latest project, he aims to “bring the signature SILENT cruising experience to the superyacht level”.

Performance
The Bering Catamaran BC80 redefines the boundaries of catamaran design. This magnificent vessel, the largest in its class at 24 meters (78’7″), offers a staggering amount of volume typically found on a 120-foot superyacht. Crafted from high-strength aluminum, the BC80 boasts exceptional strength, efficiency, and a level of luxurious comfort unmatched by any other catamaran in its size range. The Bering BC80 is a true explorer’s dream. With standard 800 horsepower engines, it effortlessly reaches speeds of up to 15 knots. Optional engine configurations provide additional speed options for those seeking even more performance. Yet, the BC80 truly shines in its exceptional fuel efficiency. At a cruising speed of 8 knots, the BC80 boasts a transatlantic range, allowing you to embark on epic journeys across vast expanses of water.
Brief Specifications
Unparalleled Spaciousness:
The secret to the BC80’s impressive interior volume lies in its expansive 10.8-meter (35’4″) beam. This width creates a true three-decker experience, featuring a spacious main deck, a dedicated upper deck with flybridge option, and a comfortable lower deck.
Choose Your Configuration:
The BC80 caters to a variety of preferences with two distinct layouts.
Flybridge Version: This configuration provides a classic yachting experience with an expansive flybridge offering 82 square meters (883 square feet) of prime outdoor living space. It also boasts an impressive nearly 1,000 square feet of solar panels, generating over 20 kW of clean energy on a sunny day. This enables the BC80 to remain at anchor for extended periods without relying on generators.
Solar-Powered Version: For the environmentally conscious adventurer, the solar-powered version prioritizes sustainability. Its massive solar panel array, combined with a high-capacity lithium-ion battery bank and a state-of-the-art “kick-saving” system, significantly reduces generator dependence. This innovative system allows you to enjoy silent cruising for up to 24 hours without running the generators.
Accommodation Options for Every Journey:
The BC80 offers a choice of layouts with 4, 5, or 6 luxurious staterooms. Each configuration prioritizes guest comfort, with the option of a magnificent master suite on the main deck. The standard layout features a spacious galley positioned forward on the main deck, while all guest accommodations are located in the comfortable sponsons (hull extensions) for optimal privacy and minimized noise.
Built for Exploration:
The Bering BC80 inherits the legendary seaworthiness of Bering monohulls. The protected running gear, propeller, and rudder housed within skegs ensure optimal performance and efficiency. Additionally, the near-zero shaft angle contributes to a remarkably shallow draft of only 1.5 meters (5 feet). This shallow draft allows the BC80 to access secluded bays and pristine anchorages inaccessible to most yachts of its size.
A Haven of Stability and Comfort:
The wide and deep sponsons of the BC80 provide unparalleled stability, ensuring a smooth and comfortable ride even in challenging sea conditions. The impressive headroom of 2.2 meters (7’3″) below deck and 2.4 meters (7’10”) on the main deck creates a sense of spaciousness and comfort unmatched by other catamarans.
Luxury in Every Detail:
The Bering Catamaran BC80 goes beyond its impressive technical specifications. The two-story engine room, cleverly positioned away from the living quarters, ensures a peaceful and noise-free environment. All technical equipment is meticulously installed and soundproofed for maximum comfort. This allows you to fully immerse yourself in the beauty and serenity of your surroundings. The Bering BC80 is more than just a catamaran—it’s a sophisticated expression of luxury, exploration, and unparalleled efficiency.
Experience the freedom of limitless exploration aboard the Bering Catamaran BC80. This state-of-the-art aluminum catamaran is the pinnacle of long-range cruising. With its massive fuel capacity of 32,500 liters, offering a range of over 4,000 nautical miles, the BC80 can take you anywhere in the world. Its generous storage, including large freezers, and advanced waste management systems ensure you can enjoy extended voyages without the need for frequent resupply. Whether you’re crossing oceans or island hopping, the BC80 is your perfect companion.

Everything you need to know about the new eco-friendly SILENT 120
When it comes to envisaging an environmentally friendly future for yachting, there is one builder which has proven itself ever-ready to rise to the challenge: the Austrian-based SILENT-YACHTS. Think game-changing solar and electric technology, true explorer capabilities and an approach to design which continues to surprise and delight owners and industry experts alike.
To discover more, we take a closer look at the shipyard’s flagship vessel, the SILENT 120 Explorer , the first unit of which is slated for delivery in 2024.
Scaling up
Beginning her life as a 30.48-metre (100ft) solar catamaran project, the SILENT 120 Explorer has grown significantly throughout her development and now stands at an impressive 36.74 metres. A truly imposing motor yacht, she offers volume in spades, thanks to her 13.85-metre beam and a generous gross tonnage of 499, with her 900 square metres of combined exterior and interior space giving prospective owners plenty to play with.
Eco-styling
Thanks to her sheer size and volume offering, the only limit on her design is found in the imagination, with owners able to customise the vessel to suit their unique requirements, rather than relying on tried-and-tested formulations. Springing from the drawing boards of long-term SILENT-YACHTS collaborator, well-respected Italian designer Marco Casali, the first hull sports numerous features including an aft deck swimming pool as well as grassy areas for dog walking on the side decks. Marrying her eco-credentials with her innovative design, her solar hard top cleverly slides out in two sections, revealing an upper sundeck which also doubles up as a touch-and-go helipad for owners keen to get out and explore the skies for themselves.
Adventure awaits
With globe-trotting itineraries top of the list for many yacht owners in 2023, the SILENT 120 also offers space for two of the latest must-have toys for remote voyaging alongside the usual tenders and toys: an all-electric two-person submarine for underwater adventures, as well as an electric vertical take-off and landing (eVTOL) aircraft for heli-cruising. This space is created thanks to both her catamaran hull form, and the compact nature of her electric propulsion units.
Limitless power
The SILENT 120 ‘Explorer’ lives up to her adventurous name thanks to her potentially unlimited range. Representing the pinnacle of solar-powered cruising technology, her 40kWp (kilowatt-peak) panels provide sufficient energy to cover the yacht’s hotel loads, aided by her highly efficient systems design.
In addition, her selected range-extender generators, in addition to 800kW lithium-ion batteries, drive her highly efficient 340kW e-motors and give the yacht unlimited miles of cruising potential. And how does this translate in real terms? Performance-wise, the SILENT 120 has a maximum speed of 16 knots and cruises through the water with ease at eight knots.
The future is green
As for the industry’s reception to the SILENT 120 Explorer, it is safe to say that it has been highly positive. As SILENT-YACHTS founder and CEO Michael Köhler highlights: “There has been a recent burgeoning of environmental concern within the industry, as well as an awareness of the luxurious lifestyle which can be enabled by the space of a multihull vessel. The result? We are now firmly embedded in the age of the super catamaran.”
In short, for those owners who are looking to square the circle of marrying genuine eco-credentials with the best of the superyacht lifestyle, the SILENT 120 Explorer presents a compelling argument for its possibility – offering a welcome escape from the stresses and strains of the every day, adventurous possibilities in the skies and seas, and even a place to walk your dog.
