The first Forte 47 Gran Turismo from Forte Yachts has been launched, marking the shipyard’s entry into the luxury yacht segment.
The design of the 47-foot aluminium yacht has been conceived by Paolo Giordano, with the interiors crafted by Genesis Interiors and developed to provide a balance between aesthetics, functionality, and comfort.
This first unit has been configured in the Gran Turismo version, powered by three 600hp Mercury Verado V12 outboard engines.
Naval architecture and structural engineering has been developed by Umberto Tagliavini, balancing design, hydrodynamic efficiency, structural integrity, and seaworthiness.
Vision becomes reality
In addition, the kinematics of the opening bulwark systems, and the onboard technical systems, has been designed in-house by West Navaltech.
“This launch represents both an emotional and strategic milestone for us,” says Fernando Moricca, co-founder of Forte Yachts.
“Seeing the Forte 47 Gran Turismo in the water confirms that our vision has become reality. She perfectly expresses our philosophy: distinctive design, tailor-made quality, and uncompromising attention to detail.
“This is the foundation upon which we will build the future of our brand.”
The Forte 47 Gran Turismo will now enter a programme of technical sea trials to validate performance targets, onboard systems, structural reliability, and overall comfort.
