The current progress of the yacht stands with the aluminium work finished along with 95% of the welding, 70% of the piping, 30% of the electrics, 15% of the joinery, and the fairing and painting underway. The RSY 38m EXP has a volume of 410 GT which is more typical for larger yachts, and boasts a space of 700 square metres onboard divided almost equally between the interior and exterior.

So I would say she complies with the most important characteristics that we associate with an explorer.”

The main saloon of the RSY 38m EXP is situated on the upper deck and the tender is stowed on the open aft deck alongside a partially shaded al fresco lounge.

The lounge on the main deck is equipped with a temperature-controlled wine cellar able to hold up to 150 bottles and double sofas facing the open aft deck and the dining area. At the fore is the owner's suite with an office, spacious His & Hers bathrooms, walk-in wardrobe and a fixed balcony on the starboard side. Other accommodation on the RSY 38m EXP project is divided among four comfortable staterooms comprising two twins and two doubles, while housing the crew in three cabins.
