Kando 90 walkthrough

Boarding the Kando 90 is effortless via her portside passerelle or directly from the swim platform when alongside a floating dock. Six wide teak steps lift you to an expansive aft deck arranged for convivial dining, with a blend of fixed and free-standing seating gathered around a generous table. Forward, the salon invites with a starboard couch paired to two portside lounge chairs, flowing to an eight-place dining table that anchors the social heart of the main deck. To starboard a discreet day head precedes the entrance to the full-beam on‑deck master, a private sanctuary with a large ensuite featuring twin basins, a toilet, a bidet shower and a spa tub. From the dining area, a portside passage leads to a large professional galley and a private stair to the forward lower‑deck captain’s cabin, appointed with a centerline walkaround berth, a spacious head and a walk‑in closet. Back in the entry foyer, a staircase descends to four guest suites: aft, matching walkaround queen cabins each with a full head, and forward, two matching double‑berth suites, also ensuite. Ascend from the lobby to the skylounge deck where a commanding pilothouse spans the bow, centered on the helm with guest seating aft to starboard. The full‑beam skylounge sets a convivial tone with a walk‑behind bar and four stools, while aft, two inward‑facing sofas are complemented by occasional chairs. A day head sits forward to starboard. The boat deck ahead of the tender offers ample open‑air seating, along with steps to the flybridge. Up top, the flybridge combines an upper centerline helm with a walk‑behind bar to port and a large dining zone to starboard, flowing aft to an expansive sunbed area sized for several guests, all protected beneath a large FRP hardtop that shelters much of the deck.

Boat's characteristics

A true passage-maker at heart, Kando 90 carries a displacement hull form engineered for comfort, economy and long-range confidence, paired to an unsinkable hull concept designed to remain afloat even if any single compartment floods. Her interior volumes are gracious, with a minimum 2.10 m of free height in all cabins, and control is assured by four command stations, including two helm bridges, each equipped with emergency stop buttons for decisive safety.

Structural materials

The yacht is built on a foundation of High Tensile Marine Steel AH36 for the hull, while the superstructure is crafted in Aluminum Alloy AlMg 5083 H321. The hardtop is a sandwich system epoxy composite for strength and weight efficiency. Systems are specified with precision: freshwater runs through polypropylene pipes, the sanitary network through PVC, fuel through mild steel, sea water cooling through CuNiFe, and fire extinguishing, bilge suction, and tank air vent systems through galvanized steel. The hydraulic system uses seamless steel pipes, and all stainless steel equipment is AISI316L unless otherwise specified.

Engines, propulsion system, speed & range

Power comes from VOLVO‑PENTA D11 main engines, a pair of 510 HP heavy‑duty marine diesels at 2250 RPM, each turning through TWINDISK or ZF gearboxes to long shafts with fixed‑blade propellers. Propeller shafts are AISI316L stainless steel. This robust package delivers a maximum speed of 13–14 knots at 95% engine load, with a serene 8–10‑knot cruise at 60% load and a cruise range exceeding 5,200 nautical miles.

Maneuvering, steering & mooring

Four control stations—one in the wheelhouse, one on the flybridge, and two wing stations—bring fingertip authority where and when you need it, complemented by four dual electronic VOLVO‑PENTA engine throttles. Steering is by HIDROMARIN or DATA, an electro‑hydraulic gear with pump‑actuated cylinders, manual emergency capability, and integration with a rudder angle indicator and autopilot. Twin steel, foil‑shaped rudder blades hang on 316L stainless shafts, while a SIDE POWER SH700 bow thruster delivers 700 kg‑f of hydraulic assistance from the central hydraulic power unit. Ground tackle is equally serious: two HIDROMARIN or DATA hydraulic AISI316L anchor winches with joystick control at the stations and two polished AISI316L chain locks, working with a galvanized high‑holding INHOUSE anchor pair—one 270 kg and one 190 kg—seated port and starboard. Each anchor carries 18 mm Grade II galvanized chain, 255 m per side, measured by a digital chain meter and led through two AISI304 stainless hawse pipes to a composite‑lined, seawater‑flushed chain locker that drains overboard. For close‑quarters control, two HIDROMARIN or DATA hydraulic mooring capstans sit raised with foot buttons, and ten INHOUSE bollards—polished AISI316L—are welded in raised positions: four large on the foredeck, two large aft on the main deck, two small amidships on the main deck, and two small on the swim platform.

Equipment & outfitting

Comfort is curated with SLEIPNER fin stabilizers offering hydraulic, zero‑speed performance. WEBASTO climate control delivers a 180,000 BTU chilled‑water compressor unit at 380V AC with both heat and cool modes, fan coils in every guest cabin, the salon and crew quarters, a fresh‑air make‑up unit, and mechanical ventilation for all conditioned spaces including the main and upper deck salons, all guest and crew cabins, wheelhouse, galley, crew mess and lazarette. Waste is cleanly handled by a TECNICOMAR Ecomar 20 wastewater treatment system rated at 2 cbm/day and a JETS vacuum toilet system, supplemented by electric extract fans in all toilets. Autonomy comes from a SEA RECOVERY Aqua‑Whisper DX 75 watermaker producing 1800–2 GPD (284 l/h) with self‑flush. Tender handling is effortless with an OPACMARE or BESENZONI hydraulic deck crane rated to 500 kg with its own hydraulic power unit. Everyday details shine: SPEICH wheelhouse wipers, an INHOUSE hydraulic, remote‑controlled passerella with solid and portable handrails, an ALFA LAVAL MIB303 fuel separator, CENTA flexible shaft couplings and electric, centrifugal engine‑room ventilation fans. Aft salon doors glide on automatic stainless‑framed curved glass both on the main and upper decks. Entertainment uplifts via INTELLIAN or KVH satellite TV—one 60 cm bowl and one 60 cm empty dome—and a PANASONIC internal communication system spanning all cabins, both salons, wheelhouse, galley, crew mess, flybridge and lazarette. Night vision and glamour are assured by two LED searchlights on electric remote and eight LED underwater lights—four at the transom and four along the aft quarters. All weather decks are laid in first‑class 12 mm teak beneath tempered deckhouse glazing. Exterior comfort includes upholstered furniture and cushions on the flybridge and aft pool deck. The molded GRP sandwich hard top and radar mast crown the profile, while bulwarks and handrails blend polished AISI316L stainless with carbon fiber; portable AISI316L guard rails secure the aft swim platform. A KAHLENBERG air horn and COLREG‑compliant LED navigation lights declare your presence, as ROCKWOOL insulates the engine room against heat and fire, and GLASSWOOL or ROCKWOOL cocoon accommodation spaces for quiet comfort.

Navigation electronics

Piloting confidence centers on a RAYMARINE (or equivalent) suite with three 19" color touch displays and two open‑array radars rated 12 kW and 4 kW, backed by autopilot, GPS and sonar modules. Communications and awareness are reinforced by AIS650, a Sailor 6222 VHF and Sailor 6110 GMDSS, uniting blue‑water capability with fingertip simplicity.

Monitoring & alarm instruments

MARETRON anchors a centralized monitoring and alarm system with touch screens in both the wheelhouse and crew quarters, supervising tank and bilge levels, diesel generators, propulsion engines, main switchboard voltages (220VAC and 380VAC), shore power voltage, battery status and navigation lights. A SONY camera network with five 1080p IR IP cameras, an eight‑channel HD recorder and a 15" LED display at the main helm extends oversight. Traditional sensibility persists with a magnetic compass plus barometer and hydrometer kit. Digital indicators for engines, generators and tank levels present at the wheel console are also mirrored within the MARETRON AMS, while bilge alarms are both visible and audible—and likewise integrated.

Accommodation equipment

The galley features SIEMENS appliances—one cooking oven, one microwave oven, one induction electric cooking range, one dishwasher and one stainless refrigerator—mirrored by a matching SIEMENS suite in the crew mess. Laundry care is handled by one SIEMENS washing machine, one dryer and one ironing mangle. Entertaining flows with one small refrigerator at the flybridge bar, one wine cooler, one upper deck bar and three ice makers—one each at the upper deck bar, in the galley and at the flybridge bar. Visuals shine on SAMSUNG LED TVs: a 65" retractable Smart UHD 4K in the main deck salon, a 65" fixed Smart UHD 4K in the upper deck salon, a 55" fixed Smart UHD 4K in the owner’s suite, 40" Smart UHD 4K screens fixed in each cabin and a 40" fixed Smart UHD 4K in the crew quarters. A home‑theatre sound system elevates the main deck salon, while the pool deck and flybridge enjoy their own stereo system.

Interior furnishings

Warm, contemporary finishes define the cabins and salon, with robust plywood furniture dressed in the owner’s choice of veneer under a satin varnish. Seating is upholstered in refined artificial leather or premium textiles, while cabins and the salon offer a choice of wood or carpeted floors. Custom‑size spring beds and tailored textile curtains complete the calm, residential feel. In the bathrooms, artificial granite bench tops, polycarbonate shower enclosures and ceramic with mosaic tile accents meet the practical luxury of heated towel dryers.

Exterior furnishings

The aft pool seating area features watertight, foam‑cored upholstery, anchored by a fixed Iroko wood table on a stainless steel leg and supported by a deck bar with a cool box. If desired by the owner, a forward seating area can mirror this watertight comfort. The flybridge is the social summit, combining a full control station with engine throttles and wheel, versatile seating groups with watertight upholstery, a grill and bar house with cool box, and a generous sunbathing zone.

Safety & security equipment

Safety is comprehensive: an FM200 fixed fire‑extinguishing system protects the engine room, complemented by EPIRB and SART emergency beacons. Two Viking life rafts are stowed on the flybridge deck, while smoke detection and fire alarms safeguard the engine room and portable extinguishers stand ready in every cabin. Fire blankets are placed in the galley, crew lounge and engine room for immediate response.

Piping system & pumps

The freshwater system fills, supplies cold water and circulates hot water from the storage tank, watermaker and heater via LIVERANI or equivalent electric pressure pumps and hot‑water circulation pumps, with stainless or bronze ball valves; hot‑water lines are heat‑insulated, and pump capacities are calculated precisely. Sanitary drainage routes to storage tanks, with discharge either shoreside from the aft deck connection or through the wastewater treatment unit, using electric macerator pumps and stainless or bronze ball valves. Bilge suction and discharge are segregated by watertight compartment and served by two electric, self‑priming centrifugal bronze pumps, with stainless or bronze ball valves and level gauges feeding audible and visible alarms at the main helm. Deck fire service draws seawater from sea chests to fire chests and deck nozzles via an electric centrifugal bronze emergency pump and stainless or bronze ball valves. Fuel filling, supply, returns and transfer between storage tanks—or to shore via the external connection—are managed by an electric transfer pump with proper ventilation of the tanks; each fuel consumer is protected by double Racor or equivalent filters. The seawater cooling network is a central CuNiFe pipe run from two bottom sea chests in the engine room through stainless or bronze butterfly valves and strainers, distributing via branch lines to engines, generators and other consumers, with connections made in neoprene flexible hose. The central hydraulic system comprises a power unit with an electric pump and PTO pumps on the main engines, with seamless steel piping to the bow thruster, anchor winches and capstans, and high‑pressure flexible hoses at the equipment. Engine exhausts are water‑cooled, heat‑insulated mild steel, and gensets discharge through mufflers. The air‑conditioning loop circulates chilled water to fan coils and drains condensate to tanks through polypropylene lines, with all chilled‑water runs heat‑insulated.

Electricity

Electrical architecture is robust and flexible: 24V DC loads are served by dedicated battery banks with their own chargers/supplies, while 230V single‑phase and 400V three‑phase 50 Hz AC are generated onboard and also accepted from a 400V three‑phase shore connection. Battery groups (VICTRON, MASTERVOLT or equivalent) include marine gel service batteries, AGM deep‑cycle engine start batteries, AGM deep‑cycle generator start batteries and marine gel emergency batteries. Two KOHLER (or equivalent) marine diesel generators provide 60 kW each at 400VAC 50 Hz, governed by an automatic power management system and protected by sound shields; capacities may be increased to suit owner requirements at adjusted pricing. Inverters and chargers by VICTRON or MASTERVOLT (or equivalent) are sized with generous capacity. Distribution spans 24V DC, 230V AC and 400V AC switchboards, with accommodation lighting inside and out delivered by LED spotlights, including dedicated emergency LEDs.

Painting & corrosion protection

Above the waterline, the AWLGRIP exterior scheme combines an epoxy‑based fairing compound and epoxy primer with an acrylic topcoat in the owner’s choice of color. Inside, TEKNOMARIN epoxy primers protect bilges and tank interiors, with bilges finished in white. Below the waterline, AKZO‑NOBEL antifouling is applied in three layers, and zinc anodes provide one year of sacrificial protection.
