Owner Experience Review
Owners gravitate to B60for long-range expeditions, liveaboard family cruising, and guest-carrying programs. In steel-trawler guise it behaves as a true displacement boat, typically cruising efficiently near 8 knots with a top around 10.3 knots and an advertised range near 5,000 nm; the newerB60CAT is marketed for roughly 3,000 nm at about 10 knots, with reviewers noting modest horsepower, a 12–13 knot cruise and ~15 knot top. The catamaran form also brings inherently calmer transverse motion and a shallower draft of about 1.4 m for low-speed passages and skinny-water approaches.
On board, owners highlight practical liveaboard ergonomics. The CAT variant offers a spacious, flexible interior (around 50 m²) with a large main saloon, open flow to the cockpit, and multiple flybridge/tri-deck configurations; layout options span 4, 5 or 6 cabins, which suits family use or chartering. The steel 60' trawler is described with a queen-berth master, ample storage, a practical galley and sizeable saloon, plus superb visibility from the enclosed wheelhouse.
Forum and owner commentary also recount commissioning realities with Bering Yachts: variability in build quality and systems integration, after-sales/parts sourcing challenges for non-local owners, and delivery delays that can extend fit-out and rectification. Engines are commonly from Cummins on both trawler and CAT variants, and the steel construction on the earlier 60 can imply heavier haul/repair logistics than GRP. Experiences appear to vary by hull, and public threads document disputes and delivery problems on some builds.
Pros and Cons
- Long-range, seakeeping-focused steel displacement variant with efficient ~8 kt cruise and ~5,000 nm range.
- CAT option delivers roughly 3,000 nm at 10 kt, a 12–13 kt cruise and ~15 kt top, with ~1.4 m draft and inherently stable motion.
- Liveaboard-friendly layouts: large saloon, practical galley, enclosed wheelhouse with strong visibility; CAT offers 4–6 cabins for family or charter.
- Forum and owner reports cite build-quality and systems-integration issues causing delivery delays and extended commissioning on some builds.
- After-sales support and parts sourcing can be slower for non-local owners, adding time and cost.
- Steel construction can increase haul-out and repair logistics compared with GRP boats.
