The first hull of the remarkable Kando85 model has found its new owner. The vessel is set for delivery in early 2026.
Construction of Kando85 hulls #2 and #3 is now underway, with availability for purchase and delivery scheduled for Q1 2027. Buyers can enjoy full interior customization options.
Designed for serious adventurers, the Kando85 is a full displacement world cruiser, perfect for long journeys at sea. With an impressive interior volume of 160 GT, it features large 24,000-liter fuel tanks and efficient fuel consumption of just 63 liters per hour at a cruising speed of 10 knots, achieving a remarkable range of over 4,000 nautical miles. Powered by twin Volvo Penta D13 MH 450hp engines, it can reach a maximum speed of 12 knots.
The standard layout includes four cabins, with a luxurious main deck master suite at the forefront.

The Kando85 is ideally sized for a fully crewed experience or for an experienced couple or family to manage with minimal crew. With an impressive underwater steel thickness of 8-10mm and multiple watertight bulkheads, she prioritizes safety.
