Greenline Yachts Prepares to Launch New 50-Foot Hybrid Model

Greenline Yachts has unveiled designs for a new 50ft model in its hugely successful range of hybrid cruising yachts. The Greenline 50 will replace the existing Greenline 48, which has been one of the yard’s top-sellers for more than a decade. 

While the new boat serves a similar segment of the market, it will be bigger, sleeker and include a host of new features. The first hull in the new model is already nearing the end of its build process, with launch at Portoroz, Slovenia scheduled for the late summer.

‘I am very proud to be so close to launching the new Greenline 50,’ said Greenline Yachts owner Vladimir Zinchenko. ‘It has always been part of our philosophy to build timeless boats on a robust, proven technical platform, so that each model has a long lifespan. The launch of a new model is therefore a rare occurrence at Greenline Yachts, and the occasion of mixed emotions as we bid farewell to a familiar friend. However, we have done a fantastic job with the Greenline 50, and I am certain that she will still form a key part of our range in a decade’s time.’

Every new boat draws lessons from its predecessors, so the Greenline 50 is a clear evolution of the brand’s DNA and celebrated design language. Its tall, safe bulwarks, the dynamic swept-back superstructure, bright spaces and flexible hybrid drives are all pure Greenline. And, like its predecessor, the new boat offers three versatile cabins that can be arranged as twins or doubles, and up to three bathrooms.

The main deck offers comfortable one-level living, with no steps between the cockpit and the saloon, which is bathed in natural light thanks to generous dimensions and all-round glazing. But the Greenline 50 also features a wealth of small details which carry the brand forward. Owners will enjoy more choice over interior materials and finishes than ever before, plus a comprehensive options list that ranges from electronics to appliances.

Greenline’s versatile aft deck area has been turbocharged, with more spacious options than in previous boats. Choose between a vast storage space for the tender and toys, or an additional cabin for a crew member. Opting for storage, the whole aft deck seating area swings open to give access from the bathing platform. As crew accommodation, on the other hand, the port side access through the transom is filled to create standing headroom below.

The first hull is being built to the familiar fly model, with a generous flybridge. Together with the battery bank and the solar panels,  the boat’s hotel operations can run on silent electric power for extended periods, depending on conditions. The system can be seamlessly combined with Greenline’s 6G hybrid drive or efficient diesel engines for a serene boating experience.

As with the Greenline 45 and the Greenline 58, the new Greenline 50 will also be available in a flybridge version. This option sets a fully functioning helm station into the coachroof, alongside lounge seating and a table, for the ultimate driving experience - or simply relaxing with family and friends. Another handy feature is the fridge and wet bar built in on the port side of the flybridge.
