Owner Experience Review
As a new entry listed for 2025–2026, the KANDO 90 Explorer SuperyachtfromAVA YACHTSpositions itself as a long-range, steel-hulled explorer aimed at bluewater and family cruising. The displacement hull with a bulbous bow, twin Volvo Penta D11 engines (510 hp each), and a stated 8–10-knot cruise with an approximately 13–14-knot top speed point to efficiency and seakeeping over outright pace. With 33,000 L of fuel and a quoted range beyond 5,200 nautical miles, plus Sleipner fin stabilisers with zero-speed capability, a SidePower SH700 bow thruster and twin rudders, the package is oriented to steady passagemaking rather than sprinting between anchorages. Public owner feedback is still limited given the model’s recent introduction.
On board, brokers and yard materials emphasize volume and liveability: accommodation for up to 12 guests with 2–4 crew, main and upper-deck salons, a retractable 65-inch TV and extensive glazing, with some adverts noting around 250 GT. Hotel systems such as Webasto air conditioning, a Sea Recovery watermaker, Tecnicomar waste treatment and Siemens galley appliances support extended cruising and the small-scale private charter use some brokers market for this platform. From a maintenance perspective, the specification leans on commercial-grade components (e.g., Volvo Penta D11s, Twin Disc or ZF gearboxes, CENTA couplings, Alfa-Laval fuel separator), and the technical documentation outlines engine-room arrangements including Maretron monitoring; however, multi-year service histories and independent cost data for the KANDO 90 Explorer Superyachtare not yet available in public forums.
Pros and Cons
- Genuine long-range capability with 33,000 L of fuel and a quoted 5,200+ nm range at displacement cruise.
- Zero-speed fin stabilizers, twin rudders and a SidePower SH700 bow thruster enhance comfort and low-speed handling.
- High internal volume with accommodation for up to 12 guests, two salons and full hotel systems for extended cruising.
- Prioritizes efficiency and range over speed, with a typical 8–10 knot cruise and an approximately 13–14 knot maximum.
- Public owner feedback and multi-year service histories are scarce due to the model’s 2025–2026 new-build status.
- Range and some performance figures are manufacturer/broker quotes without independent long-term validation.
