How about this for the last word in 'Explorer yachting'? If the world's your oyster, could you go too far wrong in this €7.9m stress–free cruiser? With a range of 3,000 nm at 12 knots it is literally possible to cruise the planet.

Following the signing of the contract of the new 24XP, Numarine – the Turkish high performance motoryacht shipyard based in Istanbul, with a range from 55' - 130' – has announced hull #1 of the all-new 32XP model has been sold to a Northern European client.

Lips are sealed but could he/she be a repeat Irish client?

The Numarine 32XP Series – together with 24XP and 40XP – will be a new line of Explorer series models.

Designed by Can Yalman the 32 metre yacht has accommodation for 12 guests – including a full width owners cabin.

A Dublin based Ker 36 'Keragous', a development of the successful Ker 39 "Flying Glove" is for sale through Leinster Boats Ltd yacht brokers.

With the same style of deck and interior as the Ker 39, this yacht was built with the aim of qualifying for the 2006 Commodore's Cup.

The yacht was built by Ritchie Faulkner Composites of the Hamble. According to broker Ronan Beirne of Leinster Boats, the design brief was for a 'true dual purpose yacht' with a modern comfortable interior that would lend itself to both racing and cruising while having performance and competitiveness under IRC to win on the race course.

Sleeps 6 in comfort for passage making and cruising and with additional berths for offshore racing.
