Pershing 80 launches in Italy
By IBI Magazine
Ferretti Group company Pershing recently launched the new Pershing 80 motoryacht (pictured) in Italy. Designed by Italian naval architect Fulvio De Simoni, the 24.4m (80ft) yacht is said to offer exceptional performance. The standard version is powered by two 2030hp MTU engines combined with ASD 15L surface propellers for speeds of up to 44kt, while a faster version equipped with two 2435mhp MTU engines allows for speeds of 50kt at one-third loaded displacement.
Pershing says that several elements give the new yacht an edge over its competitors, including an elegant slide-away glass partition, designed in collaboration with Besenzoni, that allows the cockpit to be closed off from the upper saloon. Alternatively, the owner can choose to join the two areas together to create a large open space, all on the same level.
The Pershing 80 is expected to make its official debut at the end of next month.
