Forli, Italy – Pardo Yachts has unveiled the first details of the all-new Pardo GT65, the latest addition to its GT crossover range, ahead of its official world premiere at the Cannes Yachting Festival 2026.

Positioned between the GT52 and the flagship GT75, the GT65 has been conceived as a seamless expression of the brand’s Grand Touring philosophy, combining signature Italian styling, refined onboard living and dependable performance in a versatile crossover yacht.

Developed by Zuccheri Yacht Design for the naval architecture, with exterior and interior styling by Milan-based Nauta Design, the GT65 reflects a design approach where aesthetics and functionality work in harmony.

The yacht retains Pardo’s signature reverse bow while introducing a redesigned deckhouse featuring expansive single-pane glazing that wraps around the superstructure. Structural optimization has reduced the number of supporting pillars, maximizing natural light and delivering nearly uninterrupted 360-degree visibility. A large opening side window further enhances the connection between the interior and exterior spaces, creating a seamless environment whether cruising or at anchor.

The GT65 also incorporates a fully integrated vertical drop anchor, preserving the yacht’s clean profile while improving operational efficiency. Its walkaround layout ensures safe and convenient movement from bow to stern.

Outdoor living has been designed with both elegance and practicality in mind. A concealed garage accommodates a tender measuring up to 3.25 metres without compromising the yacht’s streamlined silhouette. At the stern, a cantilevered sunbed extends over the swim platform, while an integrated grill and sink concealed beneath the cushions transform the aft area into an ideal space for entertaining. Forward, the bow features an expansive sunbathing area with adjustable backrests, complemented by a convertible seating arrangement and table that create a second outdoor lounge.

Below deck, the GT65 introduces an innovative interior layout designed to maximize comfort and functionality. The yacht offers three guest cabins and three bathrooms, while a raised galley on the lower deck improves circulation, separates service areas from guest accommodation and enhances overall onboard liveability.

A standout feature is the full-beam owner’s suite located forward, complete with a transverse double bed and the first dedicated walk-in wardrobe ever offered on a Pardo Yachts model. Premium finishes include ultra-compact technical stone surfaces and residential-style parquet flooring, reinforcing the yacht’s luxurious atmosphere.

The yacht also features a dedicated crew cabin with independent access from the cockpit through a technical service area strategically positioned between the crew quarters and the engine room, ensuring efficient maintenance without disrupting guest spaces.

From an engineering perspective, centrally positioned fuel tanks contribute to optimal weight distribution, improving stability and efficiency underway.

The flagship propulsion option will pair twin Volvo Penta D13 IPS 1350 engines, delivering a top speed of approximately 35 knots and an estimated cruising speed of 25 to 26 knots.

The Pardo GT65 is scheduled to make its official public debut at the Cannes Yachting Festival 2026, where it will become the third model in the company’s expanding GT crossover portfolio, further strengthening Pardo Yachts’ presence in the luxury performance yacht segment.
