Within her DNA lies the concept of personalization, resulting in her cutting edge design being ahead of its time. A versatile layout combined with innovative on-board technology and recognizable features turn the Pershing 108’ into a vessel with a design that is both cutting edge and with the distinguished features that make all yachts from the Pershing fleet so recognizable; sculpted windows, aggressive profile and sinuous lines all combined with unparalleled performance.

Aiming to be considerate when it comes to the environment as well as ensuring high performance, the Pershing 108’ offers a unique and cutting-edge concept for motorization, which for the first time is split into three. In fact the standard version of the Pershing 108’ has three 2638 hp MTU 16v 2000 M 94 L diesels and reaches a maximum speed of over 42 knots thanks to the three surface propellers, yet offers a 1.000 mile range at 10 knots, with extremely low fuel consumption even at that speed.

Prestige, high performance and a feeling of familiarity have made all models of the Pershing fleet uniquely recognizable over the years. The standard layout of Pershing 108’, 32.90 m long, has 4 guest cabins and 3 crew cabins, and personalization provides clients with the possibility to choose from the among a considerable variation of internal layouts, aiming for flexibility and versatility. Owner and the guests become real protagonists thanks to this radically innovative layout, offering spaces that diversify according to the situation. With this in mind, the first P108’ hull has a completely personalized lower deck layout, which includes a spacious VIP cabin at the bow, a guest cabin, a TV or family room and a full beam master cabin amidships.

The interior design is characterized by the use of frisè sycamore maple, often combined with black Fendi leather, creating a pleasant contrast with the pearl grey carpeting and the decorative lighting designed by Armani Casa. The most sublime element however, is the natural light coming through the luxuriously sized lateral windows and the exclusive built-in transom door thanks to the architecture of the hall. The transom door is made of two independent sections with electro-hydraulic mechanical systems that can slide down towards the floor to create a single space of over 70 square metres.

In the bow, a perfectly square VIP cabin offers a spacious and comfortable living space. The guest cabin, with twin beds and en suite bathroom, is a great step forward in terms of on board versatility. In fact, the beds were designed to be used either as one king size bed or two single beds.

Instead of the guest cabin on the right, as in the standard layout of the P108’, there is a user-friendly family room, with a large practical convertible sofa bed customized with fabrics of the new Armani Casa collection and facing the large TV screen.
