The Kando130xl is AvA Yachts’ charter-minded explorer, a 39 metre steel-and-aluminium long-range yacht that takes the Kando platform and tunes it for owners who want their vessel to earn its keep. The naming is deliberate: at 39.10 metres she sits just below the 40 metre 130, but her layout is reworked around spacious, lettable guest accommodation and expansive social spaces rather than raw interior tonnage. A high-tensile steel AH36 hull, aluminium superstructure, bulbous bow and full-displacement form give her the sea-keeping to work far from home waters.
Power comes from twin 750 horsepower Volvo Penta D16 diesels, chosen for efficiency, and with 70,000 litres of fuel she returns a stated range beyond 7,000 nautical miles at an economical cruise. That reach suits a yacht intended for the Mediterranean, the Caribbean and the long passages between them.
Inside, a full-beam owner’s suite leads five double guest cabins, with separate crew quarters and a captain’s cabin at the wheelhouse. Open-plan salons with panoramic glazing, a sun deck with jacuzzi and bar, al fresco dining areas, a teak swim platform and a beach club give charter guests the amenities they expect. AvA builds every hull in-house at Antalya, so the interior is fully customisable and Bureau Veritas class comes as standard. For a buyer weighing ownership against a charter return, the 130xl is a shrewd, purpose-built choice.

More than 7,000 nautical miles frames the Kando130xl. A full-displacement hull and bulbous bow let her return that range on twin 750 horsepower Volvo Penta D16 diesels, chosen for efficiency, and 70,000 litres of fuel feed genuinely transoceanic legs. At a 10 knot cruise she is economical, stretching the distance between fuelling stops and opening up the long passages between the Mediterranean, the Caribbean and beyond. Advanced stabilisation and integrated navigation support the watch-keeping that distance cruising and extended charter itineraries demand.
She is built for endurance and comfort rather than speed. Top speed is 14 knots with an economical 10 knot cruise, the displacement profile trading pace for sea-keeping and fuel efficiency. The steel hull carries weight low and the bulbous bow smooths her entry through a swell, while advanced stabilisation holds a comfortable motion when conditions build. Twin efficient Volvo Penta diesels and Kohler generators give the redundancy that matters far from port and keep running costs in check, an important consideration for a yacht intended to charter.
The 130xl carries the Kando family face with an emphasis on exterior living. A sun deck with jacuzzi, bar and sun loungers tops the yacht, with al fresco dining areas under retractable awnings below. A spacious teak-laid swim platform gives easy access to the water and water sports equipment, and a beach club opens the stern as a multi-purpose space at the water’s edge. Carbon fibre decorative rails and stainless steel detailing finish a profile that is modern, confident and tuned for guests who live outdoors.
Inside, open-plan salons with panoramic windows flood the living spaces with light, finished in a blend of fine leathers, marble and exotic woods. A full-beam owner’s suite leads five double guest cabins, a configuration sized for full charter parties, with separate crew quarters and a captain’s cabin keeping service discreet. State-of-the-art audiovisual systems and smart-yacht automation control lighting, climate and entertainment throughout. AvA’s in-house joinery means owners can personalise furnishings, palettes and layout, so each 130xl can be tailored to its programme.
The 130xl is engineered for owners weighing private use against a charter return. Bureau Veritas class, efficient twin Volvo Penta diesels, Kohler generators and a layout a professional crew can run keep operating complexity and cost in check. Build origin is AvA’s own Antalya yard, giving direct access to the team for customisation and after-sales. With a steel hull, aluminium superstructure and a guest-focused 390 GT layout, she is specified as a go-anywhere explorer positioned squarely for the high-demand charter market.
