Just a year after the Pershing's TØ Project was launched, what was announced as a new range of 25m to 40m boats destined to change the concept of sport yachting forever is close to becoming reality. The hull of the first 35m unit will arrive in Mondolfo in summer 2021. With its official debut scheduled for 2022, this new line of products, designed to combine the unbounded pleasure of the sea with Pershing’s unmistakable DNA, will join the celebrated Generation X. The new range is the result of a collaboration between Ferretti Group’s Product Strategy Committee led by Mr. Piero Ferrari; the Group’s Engineering Department; and Fulvio De Simoni, who has designed Pershing yachts since the very first one.Exclusive images reveal the work in progress on the model of the hull built at Ferretti Group’s Plug & Mould Plant: Pershing’s mix of innovation, cutting-edge technology and expert craftsmanship prepares to take the design and engineering challenges inherent in the TØ project to the next evolutionary level.The shipyard’s technicians use a variety of construction techniques in the process, including both traditional construction techniques and milled blocks. The last stage will include the bodywork and flanging phase to produce the final mould, which will be transferred to the end production site in a spectacular handling operation involving eight separate loads.Pershing is part of the Ferretti Group. This Group, led by Chief Executive Officer Alberto Galassi, is now one of the world’s leaders in the construction and sale of luxury yachts and pleasure vessels with a unique portfolio of brands: Ferretti Yachts, Riva, Pershing, Itama, Mochi Craft, CRN, Custom Line and Wally.
