BIG BUILD, LIVE LARGE The CLB65 has a timeless profile supported by bones of a 90,000 lb (40,600 kg) vessel with a 19'10" (6.05 m) beam. That beam pays off below, where the builder doesn't have to sink the deck between the stringers to get headroom, as we sometimes see. She has a certified RINA hull and is the real thing, but she costs about the same as the great pretenders.
SOLAR POWERED PANORAMA. A sprawling third deck, designed for entertaining, doubles as a solar power plant. This vessel harnesses the sun for extended, silent cruising, offering a revolutionary on-water experience across all decks. She's years ahead of the competition and is built to stay current as battery technology improves.
THE GANG'S ALL HERE. Featuring five staterooms, including an on-deck master, all with ensuite heads, plus a salon day head. She accommodates up to five crew for charter guests or owner pampering. She has a 22' beam, carries 2,275 gal. of fuel and is said to reach 28 knots.
