The Realm 45 answers a question the rest of the RAND range does not: what happens when a Danish day boat has to work in November. The answer is a convertible pilothouse. Large sliding glass doors and windows shut the helm and lounge in completely, then open out again, so one boat covers a rough crossing and a still afternoon at anchor.
It shares its beam and its half-metre draft with the Lagune 44 below it and stretches the hull to 13.80 metres. The cockpit lounge seats fourteen around a bar and galley, with the entertainment centre placed amidships where people gather anyway. Aft, a platform sits level with the water above a garage for a tender and watersports gear.
The space under the aft sunbed is the interesting decision. Buyers take either a guest cabin with natural light or a full storage compartment, a real fork between hosting and range. Forward of it sit a full-beam midship cabin with two single berths, a convertible queen-size suite under a skylight, and a separate heads with standing headroom and a shower.
Power runs from twin 300 kW electric sterndrives on a 440 kWh battery, through MerCruiser petrol and Yanmar or Volvo Penta diesel, to twin Mercury V12 outboards and 47 knots. Choose the Volvo D6-440 pair and the boat will cover 1,500 nautical miles at six knots.
A world premiere, and priced on application.

Four propulsion families, one hull, one draught.
The standard twin 300 kW electric sterndrives draw on a 440 kWh battery pack for roughly 250 nautical miles at six knots, cruising at 25 knots in near silence. MerCruiser petrol and Yanmar or Volvo Penta diesel sterndrives extend that further, the Volvo D6 440 pairing reaching around 1,500 nautical miles at six knots. At the top of the range, twin Mercury outboards push her to a 47 knot maximum. Throughout, the 0.5 metre draught stays constant, which is the detail that lets an owner choose propulsion by cruising style rather than by what the keel will allow.
Her superstructure is built from flat glass planes set at a deliberate angle.
The windshield carries a double inclination, raked back at the top and forward at the base, giving the wheelhouse a sharp, almost architectural profile rather than the usual rounded motor yacht screen. A walkaround hull keeps the deck open from bow to stern, and a sundeck sits above the deckhouse itself, with the aft cockpit built around a C shaped sofa facing the wake. Folding bulwarks sit at the wheelhouse’s side openings rather than at the stern, pushing usable space outward exactly where the sliding glass needs the room to retract.
Her wheelhouse is not a bridge bolted onto a day boat. It is the design’s whole premise.
Fully slid open, the side windows give the helm and lounge the feel of an open boat; closed, the same glass turns the space into a proper pilothouse for a cold or wet crossing. Below deck, a full beam midship cabin with two single berths sits alongside a convertible queen size suite forward under a skylight, with a separate heads offering standing headroom and its own shower. The space beneath the aft sunbed is left as a genuine choice: a guest cabin with natural light, or a storage compartment sized for gear rather than guests. Four sleep comfortably across two cabins either way.
The cockpit lounge is built around where people actually stand, not where a plan says they should.
Fourteen guests fit around a bar and galley amidships, the entertainment area placed at the point the deck naturally draws a crowd rather than tucked to one side. Aft, a platform sits level with the water above a tender garage, and the C shaped cockpit sofa keeps the social space facing out to sea. Combined with the convertible wheelhouse forward, the Realm 45 offers a living space that genuinely changes shape with the weather, rather than one fixed arrangement asked to do every job.
A world premiere built to work in conditions most yachts her size would rather avoid.
She measures 13.8 metres length overall on a 3.99 metre beam, with a 0.5 metre draught shared across every propulsion option. Sleeping four across two cabins, with a separate heads and the flexible aft compartment, she is priced on application. For an owner who wants one yacht that performs through a full cruising season rather than a single summer, the convertible pilothouse is what sets the Realm 45 apart from the open day boats around her.
