Inside the BM50 Swift Explorer: Power, Precision, and Purpose

The BM50 Swift Explorer takes shape as construction advances,Founder and CEO of Bering Yachts, Alexei Mikhailov leads a detailed look into the engineering, performance strategy, and design philosophy behind this 50-foot aluminum catamaran. Every element of the BM50 reflects a clear goal: deliver high speed, comfort, and offshore capability without compromise.

The design team builds the BM50 around a lightweight aluminum hull that combines strength, durability, and efficiency. Aluminum allows the vessel to remain rigid while reducing overall weight, which directly improves performance and fuel efficiency. This construction method also ensures the structure withstands demanding sea conditions while maintaining long-term reliability.

Four 400-horsepower engines drive the BM50 to speeds of up to 42 knots. The quad-engine configuration delivers more than raw power — it improves redundancy, enhances maneuverability, and gives the captain precise control at both high and low speeds. This setup allows the vessel to perform confidently across a wide range of operating conditions.

The catamaran platform forms the foundation of the BM50’s stability. The twin-hull design minimizes roll, distributes weight efficiently, and increases fuel economy. Engineers integrate stability into every stage of construction, ensuring smooth, predictable performance from launch through full operation, even in challenging seas.

The BM50 accommodates up to 12 passengers within a carefully planned three-deck layout. The lower deck houses two well-appointed guest cabins that provide privacy and comfort for extended journeys. On the main deck, open seating areas create a social, functional environment with excellent visibility. The upper deck adds another layer of versatility, offering space for relaxation, observation, and high-speed cruising enjoyment.

Throughout the build, Alexei Mikhailov explains how interior planning, structural engineering, and weight distribution work together to create a vessel that feels both powerful and refined. The team shapes every decision — from hull geometry to deck layout — to reinforce the BM50’s identity as a true Swift Explorer.

The BM50 Swift Explorer delivers a rare balance of speed, stability, and comfort. Rather than focusing solely on performance, it integrates engineering precision with practical usability. This aluminum catamaran does more than move fast — it enables owners to explore farther, travel safer, and experience the sea with confidence.
