The yacht was launched in March.

For yacht buyers with a need for speed, it’s no secret that Italian brand Pershing is the premium choice. With a long history of high-quality construction and a focus on R&D that’s backed by parent company and yachting giant Ferretti Group, the Italian brand is the industry leader for performance boats.
But in the last few years, Pershing has been branching into yachts with a bit more focus on liveability. Built under the GTX Sport Utility series, the new line of lines is characterized by more waterfront real estate and an increased focus on comfort, space and longer voyages.

In other words, the GTX line hasn’t been made for zipping around Ibiza drinking champagne – this is a series for sun-slowed weekends around the quieter Balearics, sipping mojitos and soaking up the Mediterranean views.
The latest model from the line just made its premiere at the Venice Boat Show. The show has long been a staple in the yachting calendar, giving yacht builders an alternative window to showcase their products outside of the busy September boat show season. It’s also crucial for the Adriatic market and yacht builders like Pershing, which is based just nearby, in Mondolfo, are right at home in The Floating City.
Now celebrating forty years, the legacy builder Pershing is branching into new models.

The highly anticipated GTX70, launched this spring in Fano, is the third and most compact entry in the marque’s Sport Utility Yachts range. At 71.5-feet (or 21.8 meters), its delivery coincides neatly with the builder’s 40th anniversary and its premiere at the 2025 Venice Boat Show got people talking.
With a beam of 5.42 meters, the GTX70 is more than just a scaled-down version of its larger siblings. Developed in collaboration with the Ferretti Group’s Product Strategy Committee led by Piero Ferrari, Vallicelli Design, and the Group’s Engineering Department, the model features a new hull and construction process that blends the latest technology with classic Pershing craftsmanship.
The yacht was moved to the sea for launch in the nighttime, as is customary.

The result is a sleek, elegant vessel that stays true to the aggressive spirit of the GTX line with its clean lines, a slightly convex sheer, and a near-vertical bow. The focal point of the design is the unfolding bulwarks on the beach club that together create a 23 square meter oceanfront lounge right at the water’s edge. Pershing takes it one step further with a lifting swim platform that expands the available space and also offers practical benefits like tender and Jet Ski launching (the recommended tender is a Williams 325 tender).
Inside, the GTX70 punches well above its weight class in terms of volume and layout, thanks, in part, to the widebody design. The main deck’s open-plan design connects the shaded cockpit lounge to the galley and forward salon via a clever up-down glass panel. Interior materials and lighting have been thoughtfully curated with touches of Nubuck leather and Pershing’s signature sporty LED light bars. Attendees of the Venice Boat Show 2025 were given a chance to see inside – but those who weren’t at the yacht show will have to wait until the official photoshoot is released.
The interior colour palette on hull one focuses on mixing darks with lights.

Below, the GTX70 offers accommodations for up to six guests in three en suite cabins, with a layout that maximizes both privacy and comfort. Above, the 16 square meter sportbridge offers sunbathing, alfresco dining, and command station zones, and is available with an optional electric Bimini top.
Of course, no Pershing would be complete without performance credentials. Powered by triple 900 hp Volvo Penta D13 IPS1200 engines, the GTX70 is capable of reaching a top speed of 35 knots, with a comfortable cruising speed of 30 knots. During the boat show, the Salone Nautico Venezia organized special sea trials around the Venice Lido to give prospective buyers the chance to put the yacht’s driveability and speed to the test.
The Venice Boat Show is a mainstay in the yachting calendar.

With its world premiere at one of the more boutique shows in the calendar, the Pershing GTX70 makes a bold statement: high-performance yachting can still offer space, comfort, and elegance, even at under 22 meters. It’s a sleek, sea-going celebration of Pershing’s four-decade legacy and a sign of exciting things to come for the GTX line.
