The heart of the Y Class
The Y80 sits in the middle of the Y Class, above the Y72 and below the flagship Y95, and it has become one of the range's most popular numbers. At 25.5 metres it offers four ensuite cabins for up to eight guests and a separate crew area with two cabins. That combination makes it a genuine holiday yacht for a family with help aboard. The current Y80 launched in 2024 with modern styling and a generous open flybridge. For many owners it is the ideal balance of size and manageability in the class, a superyacht in feel that stops short of being a handful.
The Y80 delivers the space and presence of a small superyacht while staying within an approachable length for a wide range of marinas. Its open flybridge and large deck areas suit entertaining and relaxed cruising in equal measure. Crew quarters allow the boat to be run properly on longer trips and to look after guests. It is a boat built for long weeks aboard. The step up from the Y72 is felt in volume and in the dedicated crew accommodation.
A generous open flybridge
The Y80's open flybridge carries relaxed seating and dining areas, a large sun pad and a fully equipped wet bar. An outdoor helm puts the owner high above the water with commanding views for driving. The cockpit below connects to a broad bathing platform for swimming and launching toys. Long hull windows and clean, modern lines give the boat its refined profile. It is a deck plan built for a family and guests who live outdoors when the weather is fine.
The foredeck adds a further lounging area for quiet mornings away from the aft deck. An optional hardtop provides shade over the flybridge for the hottest hours. Side decks are secure and generous for moving around the yacht underway. Detailing is understated and elegant across the boat, in keeping with the class. The Y80 carries its size with grace at the dock.
Four ensuite cabins, crew quarters and a generous open flybridge make the Y80 the heart of the Y Class.
Four ensuite cabins and crew
Below decks the Y80 offers four ensuite cabins sleeping up to eight guests, plus crew quarters with two cabins. The full-beam master takes the best of the volume with the calmest motion, a VIP takes the bow, and further cabins handle family or guests. Large windows fill the saloon and cabins with daylight, keeping the interior bright and open. The galley supports extended cruising and entertaining for a full party. It is a layout that makes long holidays aboard genuinely comfortable.
Interiors use the current Y Class palette of pale timbers, soft leathers and refined fittings. The larger hull brings a calm, spacious feel below that suits weeks at sea. Stowage is generous for long trips, with wardrobes and lockers throughout. Separate crew access keeps service discreet. The saloon opens to the cockpit for relaxed indoor-outdoor living.
Effortless MAN V12 power
The Y80 can be specified with twin MAN V12-1800 engines at 1,800 hp each, or the more powerful V12-1900 pairing at 1,900 hp each. Either package gives the boat easy, confident performance for a 25 metre yacht. The hull settles into a comfortable, dry cruise and holds its line in open water. Handling is composed and reassuring at the helm, so longer passages stay relaxed. The engine choice lets an owner tune performance to their cruising grounds.
A 7,000 litre fuel tank gives the range for extended coastal cruising and island hopping. The engine options let an owner balance pace against economy. Engine access and crew support make longer passages straightforward. The V12s keep noise low across the accommodation. The Y80 covers distance in the comfort its class demands.
Who the Y80 is for
The Y80 suits the owner who wants a true holiday yacht with four ensuite cabins and crew quarters, without moving to the flagship of the class. It works for families and groups who cruise for weeks and entertain aboard through a season. The open flybridge and large deck areas give plenty of space to relax and dine in the sun. Owners who value modern luxury and easy style will feel at home.
It also draws buyers stepping up from the Y72 who want more volume and dedicated crew accommodation for longer trips. The Y80 is built to be run with crew, which makes its size easy to manage. Its balance of space and manageability explains its popularity in the class. For the owner who wants the heart of the Y Class, it is a compelling choice.
Who it is for: The family owner who wants a true holiday yacht with four ensuite cabins, crew quarters and a generous open flybridge, in the heart of the Y Class.
