Different and interesting conversions to Explorer Yachts and Expedition Yachts

running 7

I have seen a lot of different conversion in all sizes and types but ROGUE is the first commercial cat that I have seen done and it is done well. This is a 2004 hull converted in 2015 by a company that has done conversions on shrimp boats and other vessels in the past. At 90′ and 30′ beam she does have a lot of volume, her gross tonnage is 140 which is impressive for a vessel of her size. The 30′ beam gives her huge interior and exterior deck space. She has a 12 knot cruising speed, top speed of 16 knots, her cat form makes her a very low resistance vessel. This low resistance means that a 12 knots she has a range of 6000 nm, over 7000 nm at slower speeds, with just 7,800 gallons of fuel. She is powered by highly reliable twin 400 hp NTA855 Cummins engines, this is the A rated naturally aspirated model used on many commercial vessels.

The huge deck spaces and great stability allow her to carry a wide range of toys. She carries a 25′ SAFE boat as her primary tender and can lift and fit toys like submarines, cars or other boats up to 5 tons (11,000 pds).

The exterior of Rogue may be commercial but her interior is light clean and modern done to yacht standards. She has a great on deck galley and master stateroom plus two guest staterooms down, a captain’s cabin in the wheelhouse and crews quarters with lounge.

Rogue is a great vessel as she sits for world exploring or she can be fitted out to meet a wide variety of mission profiles.
