H.B.C. is an 85.6‑metre superyacht built by Abeking & Rasmussen and delivered in 2009, with a substantial refit carried out in 2024. She combines the scale and stature of a classic megayacht with an interior sensibility that emphasises comfort and modern living. With capacity for 22 guests in 11 cabins and a crew complement of 28, she is designed to host large parties yet offer intimate luxuries and extended voyage capability. The steel hull and displacement design give her a steady, assured presence at sea, enabling relaxed cruising across oceans while maintaining elegance and style.
Imposing Presence
From her broad beam and sweeping decks to her dramatic glass‑fronted upper lounges, H.B.C.’s exterior is crafted for presence and practicality. The aft section opens into a beach club that flows directly to the sea, while the sun deck offers panoramic views and generous lounging space. Large side decks and a flow of outdoor staircases and terraces invite guests to immerse themselves in the surrounding seascape. The design balances grandeur and restraint, offering impressive volume and circulation without sacrificing refined lines. Anchored in a secluded bay or arriving at a port, H.B.C. commands attention and delivers space to entertain or unwind.
Contemporary Luxury
Inside, H.B.C. feels more like a contemporary five‑star hotel than a traditional yacht. The main saloon features expansive seating configurations, formal and informal dining areas and floor‑to‑ceiling windows that flood the space with natural light. Warm woods, subtle fabrics and bespoke finishes impart a calm yet luxurious atmosphere. The full‑beam owner’s suite located on the upper deck enjoys private access and panoramic views, while the guest cabins below offer flexibility and generous proportions. An elevator connects all decks, enhancing ease of movement. Whether enjoying a quiet evening movie in the media lounge or hosting a high‑profile cocktail event in the dining salon, the interior holds up to both occasions with style and comfort.
