ISA Yachts has decided to give its wildly popular Gran Turismo line a sporty facelift.
On Thursday, the Italian shipyard helmed by Palumbo Superyachts unveiled a 230-foot flagship with the sporty looks of your beloved grand tourer.
The Gran Turismo 70m is the first vehicle in the series to be designed by the renowned Italian designer Enrico Gobbi of Team for Design. The newcomer is distinguished by its elegant, sinuous lines and coupe-like profile. The steel-gray hull is fitted with windows that stretch from head to stern.
Onboard, the signature arches of ISA connect each deck. The living space combines a soothing color scheme of dove gray, taupe, and blue with contemporary designer furnishings. Teak and wenge wood are used on the floors and ceilings to create a cozy atmosphere, while marble and brass accents lend a touch of elegance.
There are five double accommodations on the main deck, including a VIP cabin with its own lounge. The owner’s residence, or “glasshouse” as ISA refers to it, features floor-to-ceiling windows that open and seamlessly connect you to the outdoors. The suite is located on the upper deck and features two restrooms, a vanity area, and two closets. The foredeck provides direct and private access to a swimming pool, lounge, and (optional) helipad.
A round dining room with opening windows and the exterior cockpit are located at the aft end of the upper deck. The next level up features a sky lounge and wheelhouse with panoramic vistas. The lower platforms are also quite impressive. The expansive beach club has a bar, a spa, a massive LED television, and foldable platforms for additional space. All of the outdoor furniture is contemporary, circular, and as comfortable as the front seat of your GT.
