FULL DESCRIPTION

THE BEAST is a 39.2-meter expedition superyacht built by Profab Central Engineering in New Zealand and launched in 2019. As one of the most distinctive luxury catamarans ever constructed, she combines bold design with serious ocean-going capability. Her twin-hull aluminum structure provides outstanding stability, range, and volume — equivalent to a 50-meter monohull — while maintaining remarkable efficiency. Winner of the Best Displacement Motor Yacht under 499GT at the 2020 World Superyacht Awards, THE BEAST was conceived by her original owner, Sir Michael Hill as a true “go anywhere, do anything” vessel, engineered to explore the world’s most remote destinations in comfort and safety.

Her tenders include the impressive 13-meter “Baby Beast” sportfisher, an amphibious craft, and a full suite of water toys and dive gear. With a 5,000-nautical-mile range, professional-grade systems, and a seasoned crew, THE BEAST stands as a benchmark for luxury exploration across the South Pacific and beyond.
