A new kind of Pershing
Launched in 2025, the GTX70 is the smallest boat in Pershing's GTX range, the yard's sport utility line that sits between its sportboats and full superyachts. At 21.76 metres it brings the GTX idea of volume and outdoor living into a more compact, owner-friendly size. The line was created to offer more room and comfort without abandoning Pershing performance. The 70 makes that concept reachable for a wider set of buyers. It opened the GTX story at a size that private owners can realistically berth and run themselves.
The GTX boats are built around liveable deck space and a taller, more robust superstructure, while still carrying real Pershing pace. The GTX70 was designed by Vallicelli Design with naval architecture from the Ferretti Group engineering department. It made its United States debut at the Fort Lauderdale show in 2025. Demand has been strong for a Pershing that behaves like a compact adventure yacht.
Beam that grows at anchor
The defining feature of the GTX70 sits at the stern, where fold-out bulwarks drop to extend the beam and create a 42-square-metre beach area and cockpit. At anchor the boat opens into a broad terrace over the water for swimming, dining and lounging. Underway the sides fold back up to keep the profile tight and efficient. It is a genuinely clever piece of naval architecture for a boat this length. Guests can step straight from the beach area into the sea, making the stern the social heart of the boat at rest.
Above, a sportbridge-style helm gives the driver a raised, commanding view without the bulk of a full flybridge. The GTX70 keeps Pershing's aggressive bow and dark glazing while standing taller and carrying more volume. Sunpads, seating and shade are spread across the deck for life at anchor. The look reads as Pershing muscle reworked for comfort. The taller stance gives better sightlines from the raised helm in traffic and tight harbours.
Fold-out bulwarks open a 42-square-metre beach terrace, and triple pods make an easy 35 knots.
Three cabins and a full-beam owner
Below deck the GTX70 sleeps up to six guests across three cabins. A full-beam owner's suite sits amidships with its own ensuite, taking advantage of the extra volume the GTX hull provides. A VIP cabin forward has a private head, and a twin guest cabin completes the accommodation. The layout is arranged for privacy between the owner's party and guests.
The main deck flows from the cockpit through to a bright saloon and galley, built for easy indoor-outdoor living. Large glazing and pale materials keep the interior open and airy. The raised helm gives the owner-driver a clear working station without cutting into the social space. Finish and detailing follow the premium standard expected of the marque.
Triple pods, 35 knots
The GTX70 is driven by triple Volvo Penta D13-IPS pod units, with 900 hp engines as standard and 1,000 hp units on the options list. Top speed is around 35 knots, with a comfortable cruise near 30. The IPS pods bring joystick docking and quiet, efficient running that suits the boat's relaxed brief. Range at cruise is a little over 300 nautical miles. Three smaller engines also spread the load and keep noise and vibration low at cruise.
The planing hull is built in fibreglass and tuned for a soft, stable ride at cruising speeds. Pod drives make close-quarters handling simple for owners without professional crew. A fuel capacity of around 4,200 litres supports coastal cruising and island stays. The whole package is engineered for easy ownership as much as for speed.
The owner it suits
The GTX70 suits owners drawn to beach-club living who still want a compact, drivable boat. Families gain a wide, safe deck platform at anchor and three private cabins for the night. The raised helm and pod drives make it approachable for owners who run their own yacht. It works as a summer base for swimming, watersports and long lazy lunches at anchor. The wide, level deck makes an easy base for a full day in the water.
It also brings first-time GTX buyers into the range at an accessible size and cost. Those who love the outdoor space but want more can look straight up to the GTX80 and GTX90. The 70 keeps crew and berthing needs modest for a boat with so much deck. For the owner who plans to spend long days at anchor, it fits neatly.
Who it is for: The owner who wants beach-club deck space and a raised helm in a compact, owner-drivable Pershing crossover.
