The Düsseldorf Boat Show is always full of exciting surprises, and this year’s show was no exception. Among the most innovative boats on display was the Explorer 62, a German-Italian boat that co*bines excellent construction quality and innovative design ideas.


The boat is a product of German financing and Italian design and construction. The hull has been crash-tested, a remarkable feat in the boating industry. The boat sustained some damage but remained intact and didn’t sink.


The Explorer 62 is a semi-displacement design with a top speed of approximately 24 knots, powered by two Volvo IPS 800 engines. The boat has a range of about 600 nautical miles at 10 knots thanks to its 2,800 litre tanks.

The 62 also features an innovative tender garage – the door pops out and swings up on big pantograph hinges, leaving it co*pletely out of the way. This simple yet clever feature allows for easy access to the garage, which can hold a Williams 395 or a Lampuga electric surfboard.


The Explorer 62 is designed to be a house on the water, every bit as safe and stable as a normal house. To achieve this, the boat has all three stabilisers: fin stabilisers, a gyro stabiliser, and a Humphrey trim stabilisation system, which work together to make the boat rock steady.


The boat has a nice, open stern platform that offers a lot of deck space and a fantastic view. It is a versatile and well-built vessel that will appeal to boating enthusiasts who want a co*fortable and stable cruising experience.


Enjoy the tour…
