Pearl 95 Review (2018 Edition) by Aquaholic

On Deck

The cockpit area has a big overhead hang and a bar area. The Pearl 95 has large sliding doors on both sides of the saloon for excellent ventilation.

Up on the flybridge, there's a second helm station with beautiful seats and a full set of nav gear. On the other side, there's a bar area with a barbecue, fryer, ice maker, and small seats facing the bar. There's also a high-low TV that folds away when not in use, a large seating area ideal for dinner, and a social space opposite. At the back, there's a hot tub with sunbathing space beside it. Glass screens at the rear give a clear view out across the water. A hardtop covers this deck, and the fabric centre section rolls back at the touch of a button.

Forward on the bow, there’s a second cockpit area with a Bimini for shade, seating, and sunpads. Rails are oval-shaped for a more superyacht feel. Right at the front is a tucked-away seating area, anchoring gear, cleats, and other hardware.

At the stern, there’s a beach club area with sun loungers, a bar, and storage for a jet ski, Sea-bob, and possibly a dinghy. The large swim platform drops into the water, making it a perfect space to relax right at water level.

The Pearl 95 features a Kelly Hoppen-designed interior. There are different theme choices, and this example has the 'luxury' interior with dark wood, light ceilings, and a very contemporary, comfortable feel. The saloon has deep armchairs, settees, and a dining table ahead. Large sliding doors on either side mean a through flow of air and no stifling feeling inside.

Moving into the galley, there's a full setup of cooking equipment, a coffee maker, hobs, plenty of storage, and a massive fridge freezer. Crew can access the side decks directly from the galley without passing through guest areas.

Owner's Cabin

The Pearl 95 has a main deck master cabin. Big windows are fitted on the sides and across the front, with skylights in the ceiling, making the cabin very bright. There's a retractable TV, a lovely dressing table, a seating area to one side, and plenty of storage.

The ensuite bathroom features a proper bath, separate shower, loo, sink, and windows for a view outside. On one side of the cabin, there’s an office area, and along the other side, a walk-in wardrobe with hanging rails and plenty of storage.

Guest Accommodation

Down below, the guest accommodation is reached via a beautifully detailed staircase. Two double cabins are located aft, both with large hull windows, AV equipment, lovely finishes, wardrobes, dressing tables, and ensuites.

Forward, there are two more cabins laid out as singles, finished to the same high standard with dark wood, hull windows, wardrobes, and ensuites. Each guest cabin features diffused concealed lighting and thoughtful detailing in lamps and artwork. In total, there are five guest cabins.

Crew Accommodation

Forward of the galley, a stairway leads down to the crew quarters. There’s a mess area with a big window, TV, and plush finishes similar to the guest areas but with lighter wood.

The captain’s cabin has a single bed, ensuite bathroom, TV, and plenty of storage. Two additional twin crew cabins are located forward, sharing a bathroom. The crew area feels well-finished, spacious, and is one of the nicest found on a yacht this size.

The Pearl 95 is powered by twin MTU diesel engines, each producing 2,400 horsepower. The engine room is spacious, bright, and exceptionally well laid out. Flat-out speed is about 28 knots, with a cruising speed around 23 knots and a range of 350 miles. At displacement speeds, range can extend to over 1,000 miles.

Three generators are fitted, providing ample power. There’s a full suite of engineering gear at the back including a watermaker, pumps, and easily accessible steering gear.

The Pearl 95 is a beautifully finished yacht, from the layout to the detailing. The main deck master cabin, smart guest accommodation, great crew spaces, and well-thought-out exterior areas make it a stand-out. Performance is strong with good range options. The attention to quality and comfort runs throughout the boat, creating a flagship that feels special from every angle.
