ECLIPSE Saros 50

Description

LOCATION: Amsterdam, Holland

ECLIPSE SAROS 50 (15m) — Dutch Custom Jet-Drive Luxury Day Yacht

The ECLIPSE Saros 50 is a substantial, custom-built 15-metre motor yacht designed as the ultimate luxury day boat / weekender / chase boat. With the bulwarks lowered, she offers an exceptionally expansive, open deck layout that feels larger than her dimensions suggest—built for entertaining, watersports support, and fast, confident coastal cruising.

Highlights

  • Custom build in the Netherlands with a superyacht-level approach to detail and engineering
  • Fold-down bulwarks to increase deck space substantially
  • Jet-drive propulsion for a clean, high-performance proposition and a sleek, modern underwater profile
  • Highly social deck plan with exceptional usable deck area for this size
  • 90% complete (February 2026) — a rare opportunity for a buyer to influence the final interior specification/finish
  • Launch scheduled for March/April 2026

Build quality & concept
The Saros 50 has been created for experienced owners who want a day boat that feels “big” and engineered like a much larger yacht. This is not a high-volume production model; it’s a statement project built to deliver a distinctive blend of performance, presence and refinement.

ECLIPSE — the meaning behind Saros
A Saros is an approximately 18-year cycle between repetitions of solar and lunar eclipses—a mark of renewal. That idea underpins the ECLIPSE philosophy: a new entry into innovative, luxury yachting with a focus on engineering and finish.

Completion status
As of February 2026, the yacht is approximately 90% complete, with the remaining works focused primarily on the below-deck accommodation fit-out, allowing a buyer to tailor the final details ahead of launch.

Full specification, build dossier and viewing available on request.

Additional Information

Market Position

  • Positioned as a premium, performance-oriented yacht for owners seeking a stylish and capable 15-metre vessel.
  • The Saros 50 is competitively priced within its class. There are relatively few direct competitors in this sector, most of which are constructed from fibreglass rather than aluminium.
  • The principal competitors are similarly priced premium products but typically utilise IPS drives.
  • IPS drives can present limitations when carrying the vessel aboard a larger superyacht, as the fixed pods protrude by approximately one metre beneath the hull, complicating storage.
  • While surface drives or Arneson drives are available on some comparable-sized yachts, these alternatives generally lack the open-deck layout offered by the Saros 50.
  • Additional disadvantages of IPS systems include restricted access to shallow waters, higher maintenance costs, and increased susceptibility to damage from semi-submerged objects.

The Saros 50 has the potential to be a game-changer in this niche segment of luxury day boats and chase boats.
