AB 95 and AB 95S: two interpretations of performance and style by AB Yachts

Following the success of the AB 110 launched in September 2024, AB Yachts, a brand of Next Yacht Group, is introducing for the 2026 boating season the new AB 95, designed by architect Marco Casamonti of Archea Associati. The model is offered in two distinct versions: AB 95 Cruise and AB 95 Sport, both inspired in design and concept by the larger AB 110.

The project combines spacious communal areas and elegantly appointed interiors with the sporty character typical of the brand, achieving a balance between high comfort and notable performance, without pushing to the extremes of top speed. Drawing on the shipyard’s know-how, the AB 95 has been designed to reduce vibrations and maximise onboard comfort. The interiors and exteriors are luxurious, airy and welcoming, with meticulous attention to detail. Both versions feature four cabins accommodating up to 10 guests, while the crew quarters are arranged for four members.

The Cruise version is distinguished by its flybridge, exceptionally large for the type and size of yacht, ideal for fully enjoying life in the open air. Access is provided by two carbon-fibre exterior staircases located in the cockpit. From an aesthetic standpoint, the difference between the two configurations is immediately recognisable: the Cruise features a reverse-raked windshield, while the Sport has a wraparound windshield with a classic profile. Furthermore, the Sport forgoes the flybridge in favour of a sliding roof, perfectly integrated into the superstructure’s aerodynamic profile.

The AB 95 Sport fully embodies the hi-performance DNA of the Viareggio shipyard, long recognised in the niche of high-performance yachts. It is aimed at owners seeking pure excitement and adrenaline, combined with safety and the signature style of high-quality Italian design. The hull and deck are built in composite, with extensive use of carbon fibre to keep displacement at 93 tonnes. This configuration enables the AB 95S to reach and exceed 50 knots of maximum speed, thanks to 6,000 HP generated by three MAN engines coupled with three MJP waterjets, a propulsion solution that optimises speed, manoeuvrability, efficiency, and comfort.

Main dimensions are 28.45 metres in length, 6.80 metres in beam, and 1.35 metres maximum draft at full load.
