About

Interior

With more space to play with, Fleming has stuck to its traditional three-cabin layout but worked in multiple layouts including two spacious staterooms. The salon now enjoys separate dining and lounge areas with a large galley. As a serious long-distance passage-maker the interior is designed to ensure smooth access between the cabins, salon and wheelhouse, an important point, especially for night passages.

Continuing the liveaboard theme, there is a utility area and masses of storage, with berths lifting up to present huge lockers.

Exterior

A classic Fleming layout sees a flybridge deck with surround seating and wet bar galley. As usual, the tender is stowed up top. The aft deck has a large dining area and wet bar, with wide, sheltered decks leading forward. Fleming’s Portuguese bridge offers a superb vantage point.

Performance

Having completed a 60,000nm voyage taking in the Galapagos Islands, Sea of Cortez, and Alaska, this yacht’s passage-making credentials are pretty solid. A 2000nm range at 8 knots is joined by a useful 18-knot planing capability.

From The Manufacturer

The Fleming 65 is the physical representation of Tony Fleming’s lifetime experience combining art and engineering as a boat builder. From the moment you first catch sight of her, the elegant lines make it clear she shares the same pedigree as her sister ships.

While she retains the same traditional Fleming layout and many of the features of the 55 and 58, her larger size has made it possible to incorporate many ideas from the much larger Fleming 78. This has resulted in a boat of exceptional beauty and practicality.

In common with all Flemings, the hull is hand-laid solid fiberglass reinforced with a grid of stringers and frames. Vinylester resin is used below the waterline with further protection provided by epoxy barrier coats. Shaft tunnels allow the draft to be kept low for Bahamas cruising while ensuring that the running gear is protected by the full-length keel which foam filled and glassed across the top to isolate it form the hull.

Once again, safety- combined with elegance - has been at the root of all design decisions and the 65 has been built to qualify for European CE Certification for Ocean Class.

A quick tour of the deck areas reveals the care and thought that has gone into the design. Starting aft, the capacious cockpit has built-in seating with provision for Cablemasters and the optional warping winches. Either side of the salon doors there are consoles for optional controls and other amenities such as a wet bar. Gasketed, lockable hatches provide access to the engine-room and the spacious lazarette.

The side decks make it safe and easy to handle lines while docking and all the fuel tanks can be filled form either side of the boat through fills easily accessible at a comfortable height in the side deck steps. Each fuel fill incorporates a burp chamber to prevent spills caused by blowback.

The pilothouse is the nerve center of the vessel. Although similar in style to the 55 it is large enough to accommodate a day head complete with was basin set in a granite counter top.

The spacious galley has granite counter tops and is equipped with double sink, instant hot water dispenser, waste disposal, convection microwave, flush cooktop with custom potholders, oven, trash compactor, 23 cu ft refrigerator and space for optional dishwasher.

This layout contributes to an easy and convenient flow of traffic through the boat as well as making it possible to appreciate the full length of the boat from forepeak bulkhead to the transom.
