Pearl 95 Review (2023 Edition) by Aquaholic

On Deck

The Pearl 95's exterior is equipped with unique fold-down cutouts along the sides that serve as an extension of the platform, providing an expanded waterfront area when at sea.

Nick highlighted the tender garage's functionality, where a lift-up mechanism facilitates the tender's deployment onto tracks that lead it to the water. The aft cockpit also includes a well-appointed bar area with vintage Italian-inspired upholstery and a stern docking station complete with engine and thruster controls.

The flybridge is a standout feature of the Pearl 95, offering a secondary helm with multifunction displays for navigation and control. Nick pointed out the yacht's hardtop with a massive retractable opening, allowing for an open-air experience or a shaded area at the push of a button. The flybridge layout is highly customizable, with the option to include amenities such as a hot tub or gym equipment, catering to the owner's preferences for entertainment or fitness.

Inside, the saloon boasts a modern design with various Kelly Hoppen color schemes available for personalization. Mirrors strategically placed on the ceiling enhance the space's openness by reflecting natural light. The saloon also features a large TV, creating a cinema-like atmosphere. Throughout the yacht, the interior finishings exude a luxurious and contemporary vibe, with ample light and space being a recurring theme.

The raised pilot house showcases a glass cockpit with an impressive six multifunction displays, providing comprehensive navigation and vessel control. The design allows for a flood of natural light, with blinds available for shading, emphasizing the helm's practical and aesthetic appeal.

Owner's Cabin

The owner's cabin is celebrated for its spaciousness and abundance of natural light, thanks to expansive windows and skylights. The cabin features a large dressing area with marble shelving, a walk-in wardrobe, and a television that rises from the cabinetry. The en suite bathroom is massive, complete with a full-sized bath, marble panels, a rainfall shower, and programmable lights.

Guest Accommodations

Below deck, Nick toured the two twin cabins, which offer flexible bedding arrangements and en suite bathrooms. The twin beds are on tracks and can be pushed together with ease to make double beds. The two VIP guest cabins are larger, with double beds and even more generous en suite facilities, all finished to a high standard consistent with the yacht's luxurious design.

Crew Accommodation

The crew quarters maintain the yacht's high-quality finish with a comfortable mess area, a captain's cabin with an en suite, and additional bunk cabins. A server room is also featured, which houses the yacht's technical and navigational systems, including Starlink internet capabilities.

In the engine room, Nick examined the twin Caterpillar C32 Acert engines, each offering 2,000 horsepower. The yacht's performance is robust, with a top speed of around 24 knots and a cruising speed of 18 knots. At a more leisurely pace of 10 knots, the yacht boasts a range of approximately 1,200 miles. The Pearl 95 also includes both fin and gyro stabilizers for exceptional stability at sea.

Throughout the tour, Nick's admiration for the Pearl 95 was evident. He appreciated the yacht's blend of functionality, luxury, and customization options. He was particularly impressed with the natural light in the owner's cabin and the expansive flybridge with its retractable hardtop.

Nick found the Pearl 95 to be a well-executed yacht, maintaining high standards across both guest and crew areas, and he commended Pearl Yachts for their design and craftsmanship. His tour invited viewers to explore the yacht's amenities and consider the Pearl 95 as a superb example of a modern superyacht.
