CLEAN SHIP CERTIFIED and ICE CLASSED she is engineered to high green standards rarely utilised on a vessel before, resulting in the lowest environmental impact wherever she cruises.

76.6m Motor Yacht built by Piriou
It’s a go-anywhere vessel with stability, safety and low consumption, built to cruise around the world. The guests enjoy the entire vessel, they have been on the bridge with me, they have been on the foredeck looking at ice around the hull, or watching the bow cut the ice. They have been on the tender and seen the ice up close. The boat has a lot of walkaround which means that on YERSIN, wherever you are on the vessel, you can just open the door, go outside and enjoy the scenery.

Main Deck
The main deck living spaces offer very large and comfortable environments inspired by the 1930’s passenger ships.
This area comprises a welcoming bar with two wine cellars, two salons and a separate study for guests.
The welcoming bar is preceded by a large polyvalent room that can be used as a laboratory and on the opposite side by a fully medicalised hospital room.
Owner's Deck
Beautifully decorated in a style inspired by the French colonial era, with delicate Pretzel glass lighting, rich furniture and comfortable Art Deco sofas, the entire deck is a relaxing, silent environment, a cocooned area where it is hard to tell if you are underway or at anchor.
Salon
The salon offers a library, a lounge area and a conveniently situated sushi bar.
The main aft salon is relaxing with a well-positioned meridian sofa, inviting guests to enjoy the scenery through the large bay windows aft.
Dining Room
The dining room comfortably seats 14 people, a fully equipped bar and a day head complete this salon layout.
Cinema
The cinema is welcoming 15 guests, fully equipped with 4K compatible projection, sound system and excellent acoustic privacy.
Master Suite
Forward of the dining room and bar is the Master Suite, separated from the rest of the deck by a corridor, providing a silent, secluded apartment suite. The Master Suite is exquisitely decorated in the same style as the rest of the luxury area, with its 1930’s passenger vessel style. It accommodates a private pantry/kitchenette, a his & hers walk-in wardrobe, a king size bed, two private exterior terraces, an office and two salons. The ensuite bathroom is equipped with a bathtub, shower with luminotheraphy, toilet and bidet.

The guest elevator/stairwell to the bridge deck leads to a navigation bridge forward, the exterior access to Portside and Starboard decks, and facing aft a recessed interior lounge with fully opening bay windows and an exterior lounge with sun lounger and sun awning.
Sun Deck
The sun deck covered area features two large and very comfortable salons, a fully equipped teppanyaki galley/bar, large sun pads and a pool forward. All windshields are perfectly dimensioned, as is the sun awning, which is designed to resist the most extreme weather conditions.
Located aft of the fashion funnel is a sheltered lounge, an ideal hideaway for private relaxation and observation.
