ER 90

Feb 27, 2025

The development of the ER 90 – “No Limits” Expedition Motor Yacht represents a continuation of a previous project, the ER 65, currently under construction at RMK Marine in Turkey. Following the successful development of the ER 65, a true expedition yacht project, Vancouver’s ER Yacht Design was tasked with creating a 90m ultimate explorer yacht capable of undertaking extensive global journeys, including expeditions to the polar regions of the Arctic and Antarctica, all while maintaining the true essence of a luxury yacht without compromise.

This luxury yacht represents a level beyond typical leisure Monaco mega yachts, embodying state-of-the-art self-sufficient systems capable of safely navigating the most remote regions of the planet in comfort and luxury for owners and their families.

The hull is engineered to comply with Category B – Ice Class – Polar Class 6 standards for navigation in polar regions, utilizing special steel for cold climates and an aluminum superstructure for enhanced stability. All onboard systems are designed to operate efficiently in extreme conditions, whether in tropical or polar regions.

Both of these undertakings were designed in Vancouver, to be built in Turkey. The ER65 is approaching completion and is scheduled to explore the east and west coasts of the Canadian arctic according to Ivan Erdevicki, President of ER

I reach for the VHF to radio the lockmaster in charge of Erie Canal’s Lock 32 dead ahead. Our boat spins gently in the current like a maple key in a mud puddle.

“This is Onondaga,” I say. “Headed westbound and requesting passage.”
