For several years Howard Chen has worked with Guido de Groot, the famous Dutch designer to create new yachts, which have all the qualities of a Selene classic ocean yacht but with softer lines and a different interior decoration that attract European owners.
With a LOA of 68’-10’’ (20,98m), a displacement of 143,000 Lbs and equipped with two engines (a single engine version is also available), the Selene 62 Ocean Explorer carries 2,400 US Gal of fuel for long range voyages at a cruising speed of 9 knots, with a top speed of 11 knots.
This new yacht shows a number of the Selene family traits with her powerful raised pilothouse, Portuguese bridge, wide upper deck, and side-deck walk-arounds which provide safety and convenience for passengers of all ages ( wide-body or semi-wide-body is optional.) But a new approach is also visible in the addition of the large side windows in the hull and the curvy and sleek lines of the flying bridge.
