The award-winning US design studio, Setzer Yacht Architects, has been commisioned by an experienced yacht owner and sport-fishing enthusiast to develop preliminary design documentation as well as specifications for an approximately 38-metre, modern “Yachtfish” superyacht. The new 38m Setzer Sportfish yacht concept is presently out for tender from select builders.

Intended for cruising in the South Pacific, the 38m Setzer Sportfish superyacht design will feature an enclosed pilothouse, a hardtop tower station, a full-sized working cockpit, a large aft deck, and a widened beam for additional interior volume and accommodations.
Designed for aluminum construction, the 38m Setzer Sportfish luxury yacht will support both long distance passage-making and fast cruising to fishing grounds, with top speeds of approximately 24 knots. The vessel will carry multiple tenders and toys on its elongated and recessed foredeck.
“This project represents an exciting trend toward self-supporting, long distance yacht-fishing vessels,” says Ward Setzer, President. “Its a mission-driven design that blends luxury accommodations with state-of-the-art dive and fishing capabilities. We think of it as an adventure-ready, performance motoryacht.”
