The Pershing 90 is a 90-foot luxury motor yacht with a flybridge that was launched by the Ferretti-owned, Italian yacht-building firm Pershing back in 2007. A razor-sharp profile, sleek lines, vertical hull windows, and a metallic silver livery make this one of the most modern-looking vessels that Pershing has ever built, while custom interiors with a contemporary European flair deliver both style and comfort. Yet despite the looks and size this is a yacht that moves more like a speedboat, with a racing prowess and powerful engines that can reach top speeds of 45 knots.
This yacht’s sundeck may not be the biggest bridge on the market, but it is tailor-made for bathing in the summer rays for hours on end. A pair of modular sun-loungers with backrests sit to aft, while the front of the bridge is given over to a six-panel sunpad that is ideal for picnics. One level down and you will discover a raised double sunpad out on the foredeck that slopes towards the bow for superb marina-facing views, and a U-shaped Portuguese Bridge sofa in white leather with a breakfast table that is a great place for leisurely al-fresco brunches. To the rear there is a shaded, teak-lined aft-cockpit with a transom sofa, a trapezoidal dining table, a wet-bar station with a grill, an elevated rear sunpad and side steps down to one of the biggest swimming platforms on the market and a transom garage that is large enough to store a Williams jet tender.
In the main deck salon you can choose between pale oak, dark wengewood or warm maple surrounds, while a U-shaped white leather sofa to starboard seamlessly connects to the cockpit thanks to sliding glass doors. There is also room in here for cabinetry, a coffee table, an ottoman, a frosted glass dining table or a bespoke Onyx-topped bar with stools. Up front, and behind an opaque glass screen that turns transparent at the touch of a button, there is a fully-equipped helm station with Raymarine display screens, autopilot, Simrad VHF radio, a Thuraya satellite phone, a Naviop management system, engine feedback, bow and stern thrusters and power-steering.
Four lower-deck en-suite cabins provide sleeping space for up to eight overnight guests, with a pair of twins and a VIP double occupying the front portion of the hull. Should you wish the second twin bedroom can be exchanged for a sedate lower-deck lounge. To the rear there is a full-beam owner’s stateroom with triple mullioned hull windows, a king-sized bed, a side sofa, Japanese blinds, Artimide lamps, a lobby with closets and a huge teak-lined bathroom with a Bisazza mosaic-lined shower. To aft you will find an enclosed, Euro-style galley kitchen with Bosch appliances that directly connects to a crew quarters with room for three members of staff.
Twin 2435MHP MTU diesel engines fixed to ASD Arneson surface drives deliver top speeds of up to 44 knots with consistent cruising clocking in at around the 38-knot mark. A proprietary V-hull with an 11.5-degree deadrise, meanwhile, keeps this yacht feeling super agile and well-balanced across a range of coastal conditions.
