Italian shipyard ISA Yachts, a brand of Palumbo Superyachts, has announced the sale of the third unit in its 45-metre Granturismo series to a European buyer. The all-aluminium yacht is scheduled for delivery in 2026.
Exterior and interior design is owed to Team For Design - Enrico Gobbi, while the naval architecture has been completed in-house. The project originally resembled sisterships such as I Am but is now "highly customised" following discussions with the owner.
For example, the stern has been redesigned to accommodate "three levels of entertainment": a relaxation area with sofa and sunpads, partly sheltered by the superstructure, a swimming pool and a beach club furnished with designer sunpads.
However, the unit has retained ISA Yachts' characteristic exterior arches, with the superstructure positioned further forward to resemble the proportions of a large sports coupé.
Accommodation is across four double cabins, in addition to a full-beam owner's suite made complete with an office, a double wardrobe and his and her bathroom. There are further quarters for eight crew.
Powered by twin MTU engines, the yacht is expected to reach a maximum speed of 20 knots and a range of 3,600 nautical miles at 12 knots.
This comes at a busy time for the Italian shipyard, with construction beginning on its third 80-metre Continental model and interior outfitting progressing on its custom, Espen Øino-designed project.
