Introducing the all new Fleming 85

by Fleming Yachts 23 Dec 2020 21:12 PST

The goal was to design and build literally the finest possible ocean going pilothouse motor yacht, in every respect.

From the renowned naval architects of Norman R Wrights and Sons and the use of Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) software to fine tune the hull design to ensure it is absolutely the most efficient and most beautiful semi-displacement hull on the water.

It's not often that Fleming unveils a new model. The Fleming 55, for example, was first introduced in 1986, and while it has undergone hundreds of changes since then, it still remains a popular choice today for our customers. Fleming believes in making adjustments to our design when a need is identified, without consistently changing our models year after year. We believe this benefits our owners in many ways, including the re-sale value of their vessel.

Fleming is the 'Ultimate Cruising Yacht" and with the construction of the new Fleming 85 , we are now able to offer true ocean-crossing range. The new Fleming 85 features multiple layout options for your specific taste and requirements. The new model will be offered in both open and enclosed flybridge versions.

"Our aim here with the 85 is simply to build the finest possible ocean-going pilothouse motor yacht, in every respect," said Adi Shard, Fleming Director and Design Engineer.
