Timeless elegance and sporty character are the defining qualities of the fourth Pershing GTX116 hull.

Unit four of the Pershing GTX116 was launched in the port of Fano on July 10. Elegance, refinement and a strong sporting spirit are the keywords that best describe this new construction, the result of collaboration between Ferretti Group's Product Strategy Committee led by Piero Ferrari, yacht designer Fulvio De Simoni and the Group's Engineering Department. The launch is a new statement of the brand's strong sporting nature and focus on maximizing onboard liveability, on evolving the concept of comfort and on creating even more contact with the sea.

At over 35 metres in length and 7.70 metres in the beam, this model has a sleek, streamlined profile and evokes images of SUV-style luxury in line with the brand's tradition. The concept of elegance expressed by this, the fourth unit of the model, designed for the US market, is immediately evident on the outside, with the hull in classic Pershing Monte Carlo grey, while the superstructure is a special shade obtained by blending two different Pershing greys. Contrast is provided by the glossy black hard top and radomes. The overall impression is amplified by extensive glazing, which floods the interiors with natural light and creates an intimate interplay between interior and exterior.

The large salon on the main deck has a layout that features a bar with four Poltrona Frau stools in steel and pecan colour leather. The same design label is on the centrally positioned couch, whose pale shades of grey and ivory match the other furnishings and contrast with the darker grey flooring. There are also two Minotti armchairs. Contrasting shades were chosen for various other areas and furnishings on this yacht, such as in the galley, where the colour palette creates continuity with the salon and other spaces. It was decided to personalise the interiors using several partner brands, taking advantage of one of the strengths of this model, which is the possibility of customising the spaces to create the most comfortable living experience possible.

The lower deck, lastly, is home to the owner's cabin and four guest cabins in which most of the detailing is glossy black.

The fourth Pershing GTX116 unit is fitted with three 2,000 HP MAN V12 2000 engines paired with three waterjets that deliver a top speed of 34 knots and a cruising speed of 29 knots.
