Turkish shipyard Numarine has launched two new explorer yachts from its successful XP range: a 37XP, the flagship of the series, and a 26XP model. The launches took place at the builder’s facility in Istanbul and further cement Numarine’s position in the growing expedition-style yacht market.
Explorer Flagship: The 37XP
Measuring 37.2 metres, the full-displacement 37XP is the largest Numarine yacht currently on the water—until the 40MXP arrives in July 2025. The yacht features a steel hull and composite superstructure designed for superior seakeeping, long-range cruising, and comfort in offshore conditions.
Naval architecture is by long-time collaborator Umberto Tagliavini, while Can Yalman handled both the exterior and interior styling.
Highlights include:
- A wide-body flybridge offering 83 square metres of open-air living space.
- Floor-to-ceiling windows in the saloon and cabins.
- A 362GT layout accommodating up to 14 guests, with a master suite on the main deck and a VIP suite with private terrace on the upper deck.
- Ample tender storage and expansive social areas for life at sea.
The 37XP joins a growing list of units in the series, such as Alaia, Oscar, and One Zero.
Compact and Capable: The 26XP
Measuring 25.9 metres, the 26XP brings explorer capabilities in a smaller, more agile package with a shallower 2.1-metre draught for navigating secluded anchorages.
Designed with the same aesthetic and engineering philosophy as her larger sisters, the 26XP includes:
- Four guest cabins including a full-beam owner’s suite with a study and lounge.
- A 70-square-metre flybridge with tender storage, helm, al fresco dining, and sunlounge.
- Full-sized sliding windows in the main saloon that open up to create a “floating balcony.”
- Options for solar panels and 80kW lithium batteries to support hotel loads sustainably.
A Growing Fleet
Numarine currently has nine superyacht projects underway, including three 40MXP units—its next-generation flagship series designed to push the XP concept even further.
“Our XP Series continues to lead the way in the explorer market,” said Ömer Malaz, chairman of Numarine. “These yachts are defined by their spacious layouts, stylish aesthetics, and serious offshore capabilities. They are made for owners who value adventure and autonomy.”
With growing demand for rugged, long-range yachts that don’t compromise on luxury, Numarine’s XP line remains one of the most successful explorer platforms on the market.
