Porsche Yacht Combines Familiar Styling with Hybrid Performance
Dynamiq and Studio F.A. Porsche team up to create limited-edition, electric-powered $13 mil Porsche yacht.
Just think, all these years, rich folk have never had a Porsche yacht to pair with their Porsche automobile collection. It’s a shame really, and a big opportunity for some enterprising company to take advantage of, right? Well, that is exactly why superyacht-builder Dynamiq teamed up with Studio F.A. Porsche to design this hybrid beast of a boat.
Obviously, you can’t build a Porsche yacht without some sort of Porsche design influence, which is why Dynamiq sought out the designer of Porsche-inspired sunglasses, watches and other goods. The industrial/transport design studio created all of the exterior and interior styling for the sea-Porsche, dubbed the Dynamiq GTT 115 Hybrid.
In case you’re wondering, the GTT stands for “Grand Turismo Transatlantic,” another nod to the yacht’s landlubbing brethren. But in place of a flat six to build speed, the Porsche yacht utilizes twin MAN diesel engines producing a combined 3,250 hp. A pair of 20.8 kW electric motors back them up, making this a proper hybrid setup.
At full bore, the GTT will hit 21 knots, or 24 miles per hour, on diesel power alone. Running purely on electric power limits the top speed to 6 knots, or 7 mph. But what the giant boat lacks in speed, it makes up for in range. Topped off, the GTT will go 3,400 nautical miles, or 3,913 miles. And it does all that while coddling you and your friends in pure luxury.
Onboard, you’ll find accommodations for six passengers and six crewmembers, with spacious 7ft. ceilings. You’ll enjoy lots of brown and beige leather, with carbon fiber trim and Sahara Noir marble detailing throughout. The deck cushions even use the same Pepita houndstooth pattern as the 911 R.
The exterior is full of Porsche styling cues, from the mullions inspired by the 911 Targa to the Mission E inspired transom design. And of course, the yacht is available in a number of authentic Porsche hues so you can color match your other ride.
There’s only one tiny problem with this Porsche mega yacht: Dynamiq is only building seven of these puppies, so you better act fast. All you need is $13 million and the patience to wait 15 months while they build it.
