Latest Vessels Unveiled at Cannes Yachting Festival 2024: Pershing's GTX80 Model Showcased
Sailing the High Seas with Style: The Pershing GTX80 Experience
The Pershing GTX80, a game-changer in the yachting world, offers a unique blend of performance and luxury. Although it made a brief debut at the Venice show last June, its official unveiling at the Cannes Yachting Festival promises an up-close and personal encounter for enthusiasts.
The Pershing GTX80 carries on the legacy of the original GTX116 by combing the brand's performance prowess with a spacious design, slightly sacrificing top speed for more guests' comfort at anchor. Powered by three 1,000hp Volvo Penta engines, it reaches a respectable speed of 34 knots, while its 23.98-meter (approximately 78.7 feet) length keeps it below the anchoring regulations prevalent in the South of France.
A New Era of Luxury
Crafted to offer a seamless transition between indoor and outdoor spaces, the Pershing GTX80 boasts a 23-square-meter carbon fiber sundeck and a signature SeaScape beach club. The yacht's innovative design includes two helm stations, found on both the flybridge (with optional carbon fiber hardtop) and main deck at the front of the saloon.
The raised command center inside offers an ergonomic captain’s chair, joystick for navigation in tight harbors, and controls for the Sleipner bow thruster. The XL windscreen, devoid of an obstructing center pillar, ensures unhindered views, complemented by large saloon glazing for panoramic visibility. Topping it off, an electrically sliding roof offers natural ventilation.
Ample entertainment awaits below deck, where you'll find a large-format TV, a powerful integrated soundbar, and a dining table for eight guests. With four ensuite cabins and enough space to accommodate up to eight guests, the party never needs to end.
Awards Galore
The Pershing GTX80 has been recognized for its sporty and dynamic design, winning the Best Exterior Design (24–30m) award at the 2024 World Yachts Trophies.
The Cost of Luxury
Although pricing information for the Pershing GTX80 is currently unavailable, Pershing yachts of similar stature typically fall in the €6–8 million range.
