Few motor yachts command attention like the Fairline Squadron 78 Custom. Born from the renowned British shipyard's relentless pursuit of quality, this 80'11" flagship is a masterclass in grand-scale entertaining, refined craftsmanship, and serious offshore capability. Designed in collaboration with naval architect Bernard Olesinski and styled by CLASS Interior Design, every detail — inside and out — reflects a pedigree that is rare at any price point.


PERFORMANCE

Power comes from twin CAT C32 ACERT engines producing a combined 3,244 HP, delivering a confident 24-knot cruise and a 32-knot top speed. Advanced Garmin navigation systems and fully integrated stabilizers ensure that long offshore passages are as relaxed as a day at anchor. With a 360-nautical-mile range and 1,556 gallons of fuel capacity, this is a yacht built to go places.


DESIGN & CONSTRUCTION

Built at Fairline's UK yard and delivered in 2014, the Squadron 78 Custom pairs a fast-planing FRP hull with teak-laid decks and an FRP superstructure. The flowing exterior lines signal speed and purpose, while the sheer scale of the flybridge — panoramic, commanding, and vast — announces this yacht's social ambitions from a distance. Interior styling by CLASS Interior Design and RINA B Italy ensures that every cabin, corridor, and saloon feels intentional, elevated, and complete.


ACCOMMODATIONS

Four private staterooms sleep up to eight guests in genuine luxury. Exotic hardwoods, hand-selected granite surfaces, and bespoke cabinetry set the tone throughout, while generous natural light and exceptional volume make even guest cabins feel spacious rather than merely serviceable. A 2024 interior refresh has introduced updated materials and modern design elements — the result is a cabin environment that feels current, not dated.


EXTERIOR & ENTERTAINING

The enormous flybridge is the social heart of this vessel — shaded lounge seating, sweeping 360° views, and room enough for every guest on board. The aft deck invites alfresco dining with direct access to the swim platform, while the foredeck provides a quieter retreat for sunbathing away from the crowd. From the expansive main saloon to the upper deck lounge, the Squadron 78 flows from indoor to outdoor living with effortless grace.
