Baltic Custom 112 Buyer's Guide
The Baltic Custom 112 is a 112-foot Baltic Yachts superyacht, represented on the used market by the Malcolm McKeon and Adam Lay-designed Liara. She is a bespoke composite cruiser-racer with a telescopic keel and retractable propulsion, built for owners who want transoceanic range without giving up 20-knot passage speeds. Shopping one means understanding a one-off specification rather than a repeatable production model.
Layouts on the Used Market
Charter four-cabin arrangements are the more common layout seen among used Custom 112s, though both configurations are available, and ex-charter examples are common. Liara shows a master cabin forward with two guest cabins placed abaft the saloon so berths can be chosen for motion on passage, and a guest cockpit that closes off in bad weather via a boltrope groove around the bimini. Adam Lay's interior uses pale bleached and stained oak with vibrant colour, and a 9-square-metre sunroof plus curved glass companionway doors carry the light below.
Equipment and Common Upgrades
A solid bimini is commonly fitted and is removable for racing. Beyond that, buyer-consequential systems cluster around energy and sail handling: the 115 kW battery bank gives up to eight hours of silent ship mode with hotel loads running, and a generator mounted on the main engine allows quiet night cruising. Sail handling centres on a North Sails wardrobe with a square-top main, two furling staysails on rams, and code or asymmetric sails on locked halyards, with five foredeck sail bins below for safe handling.
What to Inspect
The retractable propulsion system and its hull aperture in relation to the telescopic keel took eight months to plan and engineer, so any survey must examine the keel trunk, the RPS leg rotation through 160 degrees each way, and the 350-bar hydraulic package — reportedly only the second such superyacht installation. The single rudder was chosen for minimal weight, and the build used carbon cable trays, Nomex-cored furniture, and titanium stanchions and fittings, all of which should be checked for bespoke-parts availability. The removable bimini's structure and boltrope weather-sealing around the guest cockpit deserve close look for wear from repeated rigging.
Availability and Buyer's Takeaway
These yachts typically appear in the United States, Antigua and Barbuda, and Spain. For a shopper, the checklist is short but exacting: confirm keel and RPS engineering service history, verify hydraulic system documentation, assess battery and night-generator condition, and decide whether a charter-layout ex-charter hull or the less common alternative fits the intended use.
