AB Yachts: The first unit of the AB 95S has been launched.

The first unit of the AB 95S has been launched, raising the bar for sporty performance to 53 knots.

Viareggio, March 11, 2026 – AB Yachts, a brand of Next Yacht Group, announced the launch of the first unit of the AB 95S, the Sport version of the AB 95 created to further develop the brand's high-performance DNA, at its Viareggio shipyard.

AB Yachts reaffirms its commitment to speed and technological innovation with this new model, offering a yacht designed for owners seeking pure adrenaline and the unforgettable thrill of speed on the water, always prioritizing safety and style. The AB 95S reaches and exceeds a maximum speed of 53 knots in "fast cruising" configuration.

The sale to an experienced American owner was brokered by the FGI Yacht Group agency, led by broker Simon Graham. Graham commented: "The launch is an exciting milestone for the owner and the entire team working on the project, and we are proud to represent the buyer in bringing such an exceptional yacht to life."

The AB 95S stands out with an even more sleek and aggressive aesthetic. This Sport version features flowing, sporty lines with a wrap-around windscreen and a retractable roof integrated into the aerodynamic profile of the superstructure, an iconic element that emphasizes the ship's racing character.

This design choice visually lowers the yacht's lines, enhances the purity of the design, and allows the main deck to be experienced with a strong connection to the open air, while preserving AB Yachts' distinctive silhouette.
