Project: Pershing 170

During the Miami 2018 boat show the Ferretti Group presented three important projects concerning the future for three of its brands.  For Pershing it is turn for a new 170 flagship project with a rendering showing a very particular design.  As all the Pershing the 170 is again a design to the designer who penciled all models since the brand was born, Fulvio de Simoni.  The famous Italian designer went for an aggressive look with a two and a half deck design, this including a very integrated pilot house and the main and second deck feeling very much as one from the outside.  It might be that in this design he possibly did inspire a bit himself to some models of Palmer Johnson Supersport series.  Currently Pershing largest model to date has been the 115, with a 140 project presented in late 2015 currently in construction and scheduled for a delivery in this 2018 calendar year.

New Model: Steeler NG 65 S

Steeler Yachts from Holland has started the delivery of new motor yachts for this season with their largest build to date touching the water last week, the NG 65 S-line.  Noting her beautiful design, the in-house design team also developed a solution for wheelchair accessibility, with transfer on both port and starboard of the hull and the hydraulic lift placed midships being examples of the many challenges Steeler turns into solutions.  This S-line is built in steel and features a twin propulsion for a cruising speed that far exceeds the hull speed of the yacht. CE A certification and a Magnus Master stabilization system ensure safe and comfortable long range journeys.  The patented S-line bow enables extremely efficient fuel consumption and a minimization of spray water due to the sharp entry angle and the high flared bow.  The wheelhouse of NG 65 S is surrounded by double insulated and curved glass, allowing for undisturbed panoramic views. The interior features four bedrooms and three bathrooms for a total sleeping capacity of nine guests.  For the last week of March 2018 Steeler will commence sea trials in the Northsea for the NG 65 S, after which the proud owner will take delivery of his new yacht.

Project: Bertram 50

While Bertram continues to enjoy success with the 35 it launched in 2016, and its over ten units so far delivered all around the globe, the legendary name continues to look forward not only with the launch of the 61 planned for later on in 2018, but with this new 50 project.  So far Bertram is being very tight lipped about the Bertram 50 project.  What we can see and understand is that she will be a three part hard top sportfish yacht looking to compete in this ever growing segment.  The design of this new model is full of praise for the old Bertram see shear line, while the coach roof and hard top hint to a conservative look.

Project: Otam 85 GTS

Otam with more than sixty years of power boating experience is proud to present its new 85 GTS, the result of the Italian yard’s research after the success of its iconic 80 HT.  The project was developed with long-standing partner Umberto Tagliavini’s and in collaboration with Niccolò Pasquini and Alessio Riccobaldi from R+P Architecture studio, the latter already working on further Otam Custom Range models. For the first time, the owner of an Otam may choose between several configurations for the bow area, including the possibility of a lounge and coffee table or a spacious sunbathing area.  The result is a flexible Open that offers the maximum in comfort both while underway and at anchor.  The special supercar inspired gullwing hardtop, with a structure based on a central spine, while underway with the wings lowered give a sense of complete protection with very little turbulence, and when at anchor all you have to do is raise the two wings to feel in close contact with surrounding nature.  This sensation is amplified by the open transom that allows for easy and safe access to the water and by the bow area that provides another place to use as either a dining or sunbathing zone, always with the maximum level of comfort and privacy. Confirming the intention of Otam not to limit either the aesthetic or technical customization possibilities, the yard lets the owner choose all the details and customize in pure Otam DNA every part of the boat, from the interior layout to every single particular.  Comfort is linked to the sportive character inherent in Otam’s DNA with the two propulsion options: twin 2600hp MTU engines for a top speed of 45 knots and a 35 knot cruising speed, or twin 1925hp CAT engines for a top speed of 38 knots and a cruising speed of 32 knots. Both options use Arneson surface drive propulsion for the best in efficiency.
