How the Spectacular Superyacht Scout is Making Waves
Named for one of her owners’ dogs, Scout is a base from which they can explore the world.
By Ellie Brade
In 2019, over 150 brand-new superyachts were delivered; one of the standout designs of the year was the 209-ft yacht Scout , built for owner James Berwind and his partner, Kevin Clark. Named for one of her owners’ beloved dogs, she is set to be a semi-permanent base from which they can explore the world — canine companions and all.
The story of Scout begins with a simple napkin. “We started with a sketch on a napkin before interviewing any designers,” say Berwind and Clark. “Our wish list was to have a capable, comfortable explorer to travel the world, and we got a long-range ice-classed yacht with ample crew and guest areas, advanced systems for fuel efficiency, telecommunications and responsible waste management.” From the moment of that very first sketch, the couple was extremely hands on throughout every stage of the build, resulting in an incredibly personal yacht. “During the build we were involved 110%, in every aspect of the project,” they say.
Once they’d developed an initial concept for the yacht, a range of designers were approached, with UK-based H2 Yacht Design eventually being commissioned for both the exterior and interior design. “Jonny Horsfield was a fantastic collaborator; he and his team executed our vision impeccably,” say Berwind and Clark. The decision was made to build at Hakvoort Shipyard in the Netherlands; Scout is now the biggest yacht that the 100-year-old yard has built to date.
Scout ’s fun detailing and a quirky design approach, paired with a contemporary and practical layout, make the yacht eminently usable while still bursting with personality. “ Scout ’s design was influenced by Fritz Lang’s Metropolis , the interiors of Jules Verne’s Nautilus submarine, every James Bond villain’s lair, with a touch of Looney Tunes ,” say Berwind and Clark. “Everything about the interior focuses on the outside views with abundant windows and sliding glass walls.”

Her distinct exterior design pairs hardy explorer capabilities, striking lines and a hint of trawler influence. While this sounds slightly odd on paper, in real life it works in a stunning way. This is a yacht with her own style — inside and out — that turns heads wherever she goes. Distinctive design elements include a high freeboard, exposed tenders in the bow with cut-down bulwarks and integrated forward-sloping windows.

Her gray hull and white superstructure are complemented by playful pops of yellow. “She is a very unique vessel that really captures the owners’ passion for being on the water and their fun outlook on yachting,” says Captain Kynan McDonald. “It’s been an exciting project to be a part of.”
On board the yacht, in addition to her owners, Scout is able to welcome up to eight guests in four cabins, each with its own nautical-inspired theme. The main deck is a focal guest space, with a beautiful main saloon that includes an LCD ceiling that mirrors the outside scenes. Complementing the main saloon is a large winter garden — a social hub that is perfect for year-round use, thanks to frameless glass panels that provide shelter when needed and retract when not in use, plus full air conditioning.

The winter garden space features a cocktail bar for sharing fresh beverages and a dining table for 14; it’s no surprise that this is a favorite spot for hosting. Aft of the winter garden is an intimate C-shaped fire pit that’s ideal for gathering around as the sun sets, with atmospheric flames flickering in front of the horizon.
A beautiful private owner’s apartment is accessed via a library studded with nautical-themed artifacts. The apartment is a stylish retreat with multiple spaces including an observation lounge forward — this characterful space includes a hidden bar area within a globe structure, seating around stone-topped tables inset with constellations and a carbon fiber squid sculpture by British artist Alistair Gibson hanging from the ceiling. The owners’ full-beam bedroom suite has two large bathrooms, walk-in closets and frosted full-length windows to port and starboard.
The master suite leads out to what the owners affectionately call “Puppy Park,” a custom-designed garden area for their two dogs, Scout and Brio, to enjoy. With their pets set to be on board for long stretches of time, it was very important to design the boat with this specialist usage in mind. “The dogs have their own ‘yard,’ all materials on board are pet-friendly, and all access points, such as the gates, scuppers and door sensors, are ‘puppy proofed,’” say Berwind and Clark. This passion for animals also extended to the construction of the yacht itself. “As animal rights activists, we used no animal-based materials — no fur, no hide, no bone, etc. — on board.”
Above the main deck, the bridge deck is home to the modern bridge, which has sophisticated operating systems and comfortable seating for those wanting to watch the captain at work. This deck also features another very personal space — dubbed the ‘greenhouse’ — which has been designed around the owners’ passion for gardening, and includes its own potting shed, sink and gardening equipment.
Outdoors, a favorite spot has proved to be the vast, multipurpose sundeck. “We live up there with our guests and dogs, and we also love the open fore to aft space,” say Berwind and Clark. The sundeck is an impressive open space, even by superyacht standards, with features including an inviting Jacuzzi and sweeping views across the ocean.

A helipad on the foredeck allows guests to arrive and depart in style by chopper, while an impressive crane ensures easy deployment of the vessel’s two 26-ft tenders. A packed lineup of toys and water equipment ensures that Scout ’s guests can enjoy their ocean playground no matter where they cruise. The yacht’s custom limousine tender, built by Cockwells, has been finished in the same color scheme as Scout and can carry up to 10 guests while reaching a thrilling top speed of 37 knots.
While the average superyacht is used for just six weeks a year, Scout will buck the trend, with her owners hoping to spend up to seven months of the year on board: It will be a true home away from home. “We plan to use Scout as our primary home for the next several years and hope to travel extensively wherever, whenever, with safety as a primary concern,” say Berwind and Clark.
“Bucket list locations include the British Isles, the Far East and Hawaii .” With her ice-classed hull, very little of the world will be off limits, and there is no doubt that her owners are set to enjoy cruising on board just as much as they enjoyed the build process. Scout truly embodies the endless possibilities of custom yacht building where, if you can dream it, it can be made a reality.

Written by Eva Belanyiova
Hakvoort Yachts , the respected Dutch shipyard has announced the launch of the YN249 superyacht SCOUT , measuring 63.72 metres. The new flagship of the yard, also known as project BRIO was designed by H2 Yacht Design and is scheduled for delivery in Spring 2019.
SCOUT – 63m superyacht launched at Hakvoort Shipyard in the Netherlands
Spreading 63.72m in length and 11.6 metres in width, with a draft of 3.25m, SCOUT hit the water on the 1st of December, in Monnickendam in North Holland. She was moved to Amsterdam for final completion, which will include the installation of her mast, crow’s nest, radars, stabilisers and propellers.
The construction on YN249 originally started under a different project name, however, she has changed owners early into the build process and saw a complete change in direction. Interiors and exteriors of SCOUT are designed by Jonny Harsfield and his talented team at H2 Yacht Design, together with the owner, creating a high-quality luxury vessel based on naval architecture by Diana Yacht Design .

Jonny Horsfield comments on some of the main features on board this spectacular mega yacht: “SCOUT has been an exciting project for the H2 Yacht Design and Hakvoort teams. The owner’s brief called for a rugged explorer style yacht intended to look like a conversion from a commercial vessel. We gave her crisp, distinctive lines and integrated forward sloping windows. We placed the tenders on the bow, leaving them exposed to add to the utilitarian aesthetic.”
“There are a helideck and a forward observation lounge in addition to an expansive sun deck,” Horsfield continues. “It allows unobstructed views fore and aft which will be one of the focal points of living onboard. The whole design process was centred around a romantic idea of original ocean exploration and SCOUT’s design – inside and out – really reflects that. She’s a fantastically unique vessel.”
SCOUT is an ocean-going superyacht that has been fitted with two Cat 3512C Diesel engines, cruising at 12.5 knots and reaching a top speed of 14.8 knots, while her range is 4,800 nautical miles at 12 knots.
Accommodation on board was created for up to eight guests across four large staterooms, located on the main deck as well as a large suite on the owner’s deck, one deck above the main deck. The lower deck is home to the crew accommodation which includes two staff cabins and nine crew cabins. The captain’s quarters are located on the bridge deck.
At 63.72-metre, SCOUT will represent the largest yacht ever delivered by Hakvoort shipyard, taking over from the 61m motor yacht JUST J’S, delivered in 2016.

Inside the fantastical 64m Hakvoort explorer Scout
The 63.7m Hakvoort explorer Scout is a beautiful home away from home for an adventurous owner, his partner and their canine companions, writes Marilyn Mower
There is a sense of purpose to Scout – well, actually, more than one purpose. With her high bow, massive grey hull and towering decks, it’s hard not to get the sense that this nearly 64-metre yacht is meant for open seas and far horizons. Scout is the largest yacht – by length and volume – delivered by the 100-year-old Hakvoort yard. Big shoulders, in the form of a sundeck arch, wrap down around the superstructure while a helipad atop the mooring deck says she’s serious about going places. But, as you get to know this boat more intimately, it becomes clear that her nature is anything but coldly utilitarian.
Scout ’s role is to be a safe and secure floating home on which owner James Berwind and his partner, Kevin Clark, will spend about seven months a year, accompanied by their rescue dogs named Brio and Scout. “We want to enjoy the sea and the fresh air and travel with our dogs. We live casually outdoors so a yacht suits us; it’s a vehicle to take us places,” Berwind says. On the itinerary: the Caribbean, the British Isles, the fjords of Scandinavia and Hawaii (for starters).
His previous yacht was a 45-metre full-displacement, drawn and styled by Ron Holland, with a quasi-explorer look and a large open top deck. “We knew we did not want the white wedding cake look,” says Clark. “We don’t have a need to conform and we don’t take ourselves that seriously.”
And, aside from top-drawer mechanicals and hefty construction specifications, neither does the yacht. Which brings us to Scout ’s other purpose: fun. There are fantasy elements reminiscent of how the future was once imagined à la Jules Verne’s Twenty Thousand Leagues Under the Sea (1870) and Fritz Lang’s classic 1927 film Metropolis . Throw in Atlantis, the futuristic underwater lair of 007’s nemesis in the 1977 film The Spy Who Loved Me , and place it against a modernist backdrop spiced with imaginative custom furniture and you have an interior that delights at every turn.
H2 Yacht Design’s Jonny Horsfield, who styled the yacht inside and out, is the first to say it’s like nothing he’s ever done before. There are so many clever details that it’s hard to take it all in. And that’s exactly the point. This is a home rather than a holiday pad and it must keep its occupants engaged and entertained for months on end.
It was broker Stuart Larsen of Fraser who helped Berwind develop bid requirements for a yacht of 60 to 65 metres and then suggested he interview several design firms. Must-haves included a large sundeck. “We live on the sundeck – that was the one thing we borrowed from the previous boat,” says Berwind. “We had two requirements for that deck: elevator access and a dayhead. But I was adamant that it be completely open from front to back. During interviews, the designers we talked to kept trying to put a small house in the middle. When I told Jonny it had to have a dayhead and an elevator and still be totally open, he said, ‘Well there’s only one way to do that – move them outboard and incorporate them into the arch’,” remembers Berwind, who secretly had this in mind. “He got the job on the spot.”
Then they set to work sketching the rest of the boat, the profile taking on its husky masculine look. Berwind’s first pencil sketch, on a sheet of lined paper, hangs framed in the wheelhouse. It looks unmistakably like the finished product. “Jonny was very easy to work with and we were very lucky to have found him,” says Berwind.
Larsen sent his client’s bid request to several yards and all replied with a new-build package, price and time frame. Hakvoort, however, added an intriguing second bid, offering to build the boat on an ice-classed steel hull, drawn by the respected Dutch studio Diana Yacht Design , that had already been started.
“Noting the dimensions of the stopped project were quite similar to that of the Scout bid, I projected Jonny’s layout on this hull,” recalls Klaas Hakvoort. “That was in August 2015 and at the Fort Lauderdale show, they signed the letter of intent.” Berwind adds: “The superstructure that had been started and the layout nothing like we wanted but the idea of saving time, we thought perhaps as much as a year, was attractive, especially when we realised we could have 95 per cent of what we wanted on this hull.”
And so building Scout began by unbuilding the other boat first, starting with removing its nascent superstructure and reworking the transom for a better beach club and a dive store. Horsfield’s design called for more windows and skylights and Hakvoort notes that required a different framing plan to accommodate the larger openings.
“The crane on the foredeck was quite a feat as well,” he adds. Nautical Structures was the only supplier willing to attempt the unique knuckle-boom crane, with an 8,000kg lifting capacity that would fit the length of a new forward tender bay (behind a raised helipad) and maintain a low enough profile for forward visibility from the lounge. The entire area was strengthened down to the keel to support the crane and helicopter load and all of the bulwarks were enclosed for the safety of the dogs. In all, Hakvoort says the build required 80,000 work-hours of metal reconstruction.
“Did we actually save a lot of time? No. But I would absolutely do this again. The fixed hull gave limitations to the project and kept us from saying, ‘Let’s add a little more here or there.’ We looked at the hull as a foundation to a house; everything other than the footprint was ours to define,” says Berwind.
“James wanted the boat to look as if it had had another life before it became a yacht,” explains Horsfield, which explains some old-fashioned ship gauges among the decor and doors that recall watertight compartment doors on cargo vessels. Yet everything is finely finished rather than gnarled. “He definitely didn’t want a Disney boat, but he wanted furniture with stories. These are fun clients with a sense of humour. The owner trained as an architect and design interests him. My job was to listen to him and put his thoughts into something that could be built.”
The yacht’s main saloon establishes that Verne/Lang/Fleming influence immediately with its fantastical furniture and decor. Forward of the saloon is the main lobby and a starboard-side guest entrance. Carpeted stair treads – one of the few carpeted surfaces aboard and a concession to the dogs – wrap around a clear glass lift while forward are four guest cabins, identical in size but given distinctive colour schemes via mosaic tiles keyed to a photograph of a sea creature above each bed’s headboard. Each guest room has pairs of oversized windows of toughened glass that do not require storm ports for crossings.
While there are outdoor dining options on the main deck and sundeck – each with adjacent bars – there is no indoor dining room, a growing trend. “We didn’t have a formal dining room on our last boat. We turned a VIP cabin into a dining space, but I had no intention of doing that here,” notes Berwind. “I thought possibly of enclosing the upper aft deck but then got the idea of making the forward lounge convertible. The only time we’ll use it for dining is when we have to.”
The observation lounge, with its view over the tenders, is a light, bright, multi-use space to retreat to if cold or storms force the owners off their beloved sundeck. Two round tables, with stone tops inset with constellations, are flanked by L-shaped forward-facing love seats and casual high-backed chairs in tweed, all on a slightly raised teak and holly platform. A high-top table and two stools tuck up against the forward windows. Overhead, three skylights pour light into the room and over a “squid” sculpture, created by Alastair Gibson from carbon fibre and Formula 1 car parts.
The aft bulkhead is faced with curio shelves, flanking an unusual bar: when closed it appears as a large globe, but it slides open in sections along lines of longitude to reveal shelves for drinks or snacks, storage for glasses and a drawer for plates. Aft of the lounge is a large and well-thought-out service pantry that links to the crew’s centre of circulation on port with a full-size fridge, dishwasher and loads of counter space for final plating. A lift for a full-size food cart connects this pantry to the galley on the lower deck. Storage, crew spaces and circulation pathways are large at the owner’s direction.
The master suite is entered through a library packed with an eclectic section of books, nautical antiques and miniature steam engines plumbed to run on compressed air. Much of Scout ’s artwork is a collection of collages by New York artist William Steiger, who Berwind first encountered on Instagram. Steiger’s collages are made by meticulously hand-cutting paper, including nautical and star charts, with X-Acto blades. The pieces are painted with transparent layers of gouache before being glued down in layers to create the final collaged image. The collection includes channel markers, turbines and machinery, sextants, vintage diving helmets, propellers, compasses, seaplanes and the Atlantis from the Bond film.
“I sent him subjects that I wanted to include but he found the images and made the collages from them using the charts as backgrounds,” says Berwind. “The industrial/mechanical themes of his work really fit Scout .”
From this quiet space, with grey oak walls and a shaggy carpet evoking seagrasses, a corridor leads past large bathrooms port and starboard and their attendant dressing areas. Frosted floor-to-ceiling glass panels brighten the corridor with light from the bathrooms while maintaining privacy. Art sits in dark-stained lacewood niches surrounded by faux leather panelling. The master suite is the size of a Manhattan studio apartment and it seems even larger given the private terrace or “puppy park” beyond. The aft-facing bed is backed by panels of bubble glass and the high-gloss ceiling is sculpted to mimic waves.
From the puppy park, stairs lead to the deck above where the yacht shelters a one-of-a-kind greenhouse. This is Berwind’s “me space”, with an enclosed teak shade house with slats for hanging plants in baskets and a potting shed on starboard with a sink and room for garden tools and pots. A passionate gardener, Berwind delights in caring for the yacht’s many plants.
The bridge is another popular spot and Captain Kynan McDonald had free rein to design it. His choice was for a ship-like arrangement with a floating console. Not only does this give critical visibility at night but it means all of the equipment can be easily accessed from the rear. A large chart table separates two raised sofas for guests or an extra watch.
Leading-edge security systems were integrated on board to suit Scout’ s intent for global expedition. “If you are going to have an expedition boat, advanced security is something you have to plan for,” says McDonald. And for owners who are now able to see the world at their own pace by taking their home and their furry friends with them, it’s the final bit of extra planning that makes everything possible.

All aboard S.S. Facebook.
Mark Zuckerberg has reportedly gifted himself a $300 million megayacht, dubbed “Launchpad,” ahead of his 40th birthday.
The staggering 387-foot-long vessel was seen floating at Port Everglades in Fort Lauderdale, Fla., after arriving at its berth earlier this week, The Sun reported Thursday.
The multi-layered luxury ship’s sleek exterior was designed by Espen Øino International and boasts a steel hull and an aluminum superstructure, according to SuperYacht Times.
Reportedly ranking as the 45th largest yacht in the world, the interiors are just as aesthetically pleasing and reportedly executed by Zuretti Interior Design company, a France-based company specializing in unique and custom yacht design.
The breathtakingly beautiful floater stands out with a navy blue theme matching an American flag perched proudly on its wood-paneled stern.
There are several outdoor areas where the social media maven will be able to relax with his family and the indoor levels feature glass paneling allowing for tons of natural light.

There also appears to be a helipad perfect for whenever the Facebook co-founder wants to travel to his vessel by air.
The Feadship-built yacht, built in 2022, can comfortably fit 24 guests aboard, requires a crew of 48, and is said to cost $30 million a year for upkeep and usage, according to Superyachtfan.com .
Boatworld insiders have been buzzing with speculation that Zuckerberg is the owner of the newly minted mega-cruise ever since it made its main voyage from the Netherlands last week.
The tech titan was spotted touring the Russian-commissioned megayacht in early March, though the impressive boat didn’t arrive stateside until this week due to sanctions, according to The Sun.
The website reported that Zuckerberg purchased the pricey yacht – along with its own $30 million partner boat — most likely as an early 40th birthday present to himself.
The boat reportedly traveled to Florida after being granted special permission to be imported just weeks ahead of Zuckerberg’s birthday on May 14.
Zuckerberg’s yacht is just 30 feet shorter than the length of fellow billionaire Jeff Bezos’ 417-foot megayacht Koru, which the Amazon boss snagged for a whopping $500 million.
Zuckerberg’s rep did not immediately respond to Page Six’s request for comment.
