Its spaces were designed to be continuous with a perfect dialogue between inside and out, seeking to reconnect people to nature. This is the thrilling dimension of the new Pershing GTX80 part of the GTX series. The line of a motor yacht that brings together design, performance, and sportiness in one, inviting sailors to move across the sea in complete comfort, achieving the excellent performance the hallmark of the shipyard’s yachts.

The creative vision of an exceptional team – the Vallicelli Design studio, Ferretti Group Product Strategy Committee – led by the engineer Piero Ferrari – and the Group’s Engineering Department created livable spaces, spacious areas in close contact with the sea, full of meticulous details and last generation technology.

Pershing’s DNA is expressed in the pure “artisanal intelligence” embodied in these twenty-four meters. Built in the Ferretti Group Plug and Mould facility, it has two decks, four cabins, a 23 sq.m. large sundeck made of carbon fiber, Italian-made furnishings, and a layout that can accommodate eight guests, featuring a rare balance of forms for sporty yachts. 

The boat’s design is also groundbreaking, combining Pershing’s style hallmarks with innovative features like the bow accentuated vertically and the sheer-line tracing a convex curve. Its lightweight, elegant line is elevated by its color choice with the traditional Pershing gray alternating with a darker color in the superstructure. A salient feature of this floating “home” is the main deck on the aft which covers two levels. The first level has a beach area with openable side terraces flush to the water.

he platform can be used to launch the tenders or align with the beach area, expanding its already generous area. The second level has a sophisticated dining area with a dining table and free-standing chairs. It is connected to the inner kitchen with vertical sliding concealed windows becoming an entrance point to the living room flooded with natural light and designed to keep in visual contact with the sea.

Surrounded in hues that highlight contrasts, the interiors feature warm shades combined with metallic lacquered furnishings. these compositions also recur in the lower deck, such as in the owner’s cabin clad with light blue leather panels, in the bathroom area featuring total black faucets and LED lights in geometric shapes that cut clean lines of light, giving Pershing GTX80 its dynamism. In an intelligent combination of thrilling elegance and state-of-the-art design.
