Californian boatbuilder Offshore Yachts has introduced the CE Series 65, a new model developed in collaboration with Spain’s Barracuda Yacht Design. This marks the first close collaboration between the American manufacturer and the European naval architect.

The 19.78-metre CE Series 65 features a contemporary deep-V, double-chine hull design, with influences from Offshore Yachts’ longstanding history. The hull design, characterised by an almost plumb bow, extended waterline length, and flat underwater sections aft, contributes to a low-drag, efficient vessel suitable for extended cruising at lower engine speeds.

The yacht’s flybridge and superstructure are designed with tall, wide windows, creating a spacious feel inside. The main saloon integrates with the aft deck to provide an open-plan layout. The CE Series 65 is available in two variations: the ‘Explorer’ and ‘Cruiser,’ offering options such as galley placement (aft or mid-ships), different foredeck configurations, and tender location choices on either the flybridge or swim platform, based on the owner’s preferences.
