British boatbuilder Pearl Yachts has unveiled the new Pearl 63 project at Boot Düsseldorf 2025.
The Pearl 63 introduces enhancements to the award-winning Pearl 62, one of the brand’s most successful models. Designed as a family yacht and suited for owner operation, it accommodates up to eight guests in four cabins and features practical solutions alongside luxurious amenities.
The new design incorporates several updates, including a restyled exterior and an improved aft cockpit layout with two opening side balconies. Pearl says these additions increase the usable floor area, creating a space for relaxation and entertaining.
The Pearl 63 benefits from collaboration with Dixon Yacht Design for exterior and naval architecture, and Kelly Hoppen Interiors for the interior design.
The vessel is currently under construction, with its official launch scheduled for April 2025.
Iain Smallridge, managing director of Pearl Yachts, says: “The Pearl 63 represents another exciting chapter for Pearl Yachts. Building on the success of the Pearl 62, this new model embodies our commitment to innovation, luxury, and delivering a truly unique yachting experience.
“The Pearl 63’s thoughtful design and advanced technology provide owners with the perfect blend of practicality, elegance, and performance. We are proud to continue raising the bar in this size category.”
The aft cockpit includes opening side balconies and two adjustable dining tables. An L-shaped sofa with a reversible backrest allows for lounging with ocean views. A hi/low bathing platform complements a tender garage capable of housing a Williams 285 jet tender or Seadoo Spark jetski. Alternatively, the space can be configured as a crew cabin.
The yacht’s interior accommodates eight guests across four cabins, including a full-beam master suite with private stairway access, his-and-hers wardrobes, and panoramic hull windows. The ensuite offers a wet room with a Corian sink and WC. Owners can choose from four curated interior themes: Indulgence, Luxury, Modern, and Monochrome. The saloon features large glazed areas for natural light, alongside a fully equipped galley and a forward lounge area.
Wide side decks lead to a foredeck lounge equipped with sun pads, a foldaway table, and an optional Bedouin-style canopy. The flybridge includes a hardtop with an optional opening section, a wet bar, BBQ, and ample seating and sunbathing areas.
Key features include joystick controls, dynamic positioning, integrated Garmin touchscreens and proportional thrusters.
Pearl Yachts also announced new dealerships: Pearl Germany, Pearl France, and Pearl Gulf.
Pearl Germany operates from Werder (Havel), providing access to Berlin’s waterways and the Baltic Sea. Pearl France, led by Cenk Efe of Mallorca Marine Group, exclusively serves the French market. Pearl Gulf, part of Oceanworld Group in Dubai, covers the GCC region and will showcase Pearl Yachts at the Dubai International Boat Show in February.
Smallridge adds: “We are thrilled to introduce not just the Pearl 63 but also three key dealerships that reinforce our presence in pivotal markets.
“With Pearl Germany, Pearl France, and Pearl Gulf, we are confident that our expanded network will bring the Pearl experience to an even wider audience of discerning yacht owners.
“The Düsseldorf Boat Show is an important platform for celebrating these milestones with the global yachting community.”
