CL Yachts has unveiled its latest concept: the CLB65 SUV. This new model is being introduced ahead of the 2025 Sanctuary Cove International Boat Show, where it will be presented to prospective clients as part of the brand’s ongoing expansion into the Australian market.
The latest addition to CL Yachts’ B-Series is a compact and versatile model. Certified either with RINA Hull Construction or CE Category B Class standards, it is designed for cruising in a variety of open-water conditions and climates.
The sporty 19.7-metre yacht is powered by a choice of twin Caterpillar C18 or Volvo Penta D13 diesel engines, capable of reaching top speeds of up to 30 knots. For easier docking, a concealed ZF JMS boat control system is available on either wing.
On board, the layout integrates the aft deck, galley, and salon into a spacious and functional area suited to socialising and day-to-day living.
The aft deck features an electric grill and two bar stools, making it suitable for outdoor dining or as an additional seating area. A flip-up window and sliding door provide a seamless transition between indoor and outdoor spaces, with clear forward views.
The fully equipped galley connects directly to both the salon and the aft deck via the flip-up window, facilitating easy interaction between areas. Opposite the galley, a breakfast nook offers a comfortable place for casual dining, with expansive views through the large windows.
The salon is fitted with generous glazing, an operable port-side window, a sunroof, and a retractable, rotatable TV.
A flexible space on board can serve multiple functions depending on the owner’s needs — including a command centre for fishing or diving, a beach club, or a temporary stateroom. Stability at anchor is enhanced with the option of either at-rest fins or a gyro stabilisation system.
Accommodation is located on the lower deck. The full-beam master stateroom benefits from the yacht’s 6.05-metre beam and includes large hull-side windows, walnut finishes, and carefully selected textiles.
Additional guests are accommodated in a VIP stateroom with a skylight and a flexible ensuite cabin that can be configured with either twin beds or a single berth.
