Pershing 8X

Onboard the Pershing 8X

The Pershing 8X carries the low, sculpted lines the yard is known for, with a planing hull built for speed rather than slow drift. At 25 metres, the deck spaces feel open without losing the tight, performance-boat character that separates a sport yacht from a displacement cruiser: everything on board is arranged around movement, sightlines and the rush of getting somewhere quickly.

This is a yacht suited to a day spent covering ground along the European coast rather than sitting at anchor for hours. Guests board mid-morning, run at pace to a stretch of open water or a quieter bay further along the coastline, and treat the return leg as part of the day rather than an afterthought. The hull rewards a route with some open sea in it, not just short hops inside a harbour.

With four cabins and capacity for nine guests, the Pershing 8X suits a tight group — a couple travelling with close friends, a small family booking, or a handful of colleagues who want a fast, private day on the water rather than a large-scale event. Ahead of booking, our team sets out day-rate, fuel and APA guidance clearly, so the cost of a high-speed itinerary is understood before departure, not adjusted afterwards.
