Design your own Dynamiq GTT 115 Porsche Yacht with the newly released online configurator

Let us take a break from discussing new cars’ engines, features, and designs. For now, let us put ourselves in the shoes of the extremely wealthy and plan how we would want our superyacht to appear. Porsche, the builder of this yacht, has fortunately made an online configurator to help every potential customer customize it to fill every one of their needs.

Porsche's car designs are easily recognizable on the streets. In fact, it has released numerous 911 units, adding to its popularity. But now Porsche is demonstrating that its talent and expertise know no bounds and is venturing into the high seas with its plan of building a super yacht. Concept designs of the 115-foot (35 m) 'GTT 115 Hybrid vessel has been made public by the Monaco-based yacht builder Dynamiq.

It is said to boast of integrated classic Porsche model cues. The GTT 115 concept is the brainchild of the joint collaboration of boat building firm Vripack and Studio F.A. Porsche, one of the design studios that spawned Porsche Design sunglasses, watches and one-off pieces catered to its wealthy patrons. Porsche mainly focused on the exterior design, while Vripack came up with the round bilge all-aluminum hull and significant hydrodynamic elements. Moreover, the boat's shallow draft of 1.45m (4.75 ft) will highly contribute to smooth cruising in the open seas, Dynamiq added.

The GTT can run 21 knots (24 phm/39 km/h) and can traverse over 3,00 nautical miles (3,913 mi/6,297 km), enough to cross the Atlantic. However, the top speed will be restricted at 6 knots (7phm/11km/h), running on electric power. You can opt for brown or beige leather trim, and you can match carbon fiber and marble detailing with it. Interested buyers can choose the color of their yacht, its interiors and also the electronic system to match their taste. If you want to know all the available options, then you can visit the yacht configurator.

Want a sample on how expensive the options are? There's an optional sports package that is worth $278,000 that has special paint, mahogany, carbon fiber trim and exercise bike. Then there's the $61,000 sundeck bar, $50,000 sliding door and $300,000 for the Minotti furniture. If your only problem is how to get rid of your extra cash, then you can opt for a $40,000 throw pillow set while another $45,000 will get you crew uniforms and $50,000 will give you six sets of Egyptian cotton beddings with matching towels. Fancy a diving board? Then you need not to worry as this is also offered for the price of $20,000.

You must act quickly if you are interested to purchase this super yacht because only 7 of these will be built. But you must prepare a jaw dropping €11,900,000 ($13,279,500) to secure this boat. The first of its the line will be made in Italy and is geared to be debuted at the 2017 Monaco Yacht Show. Moreover 2 smaller alternatives, a 100 ft (30m) and 85 ft (26m) models are in the works and will be possibly revealed this year.

Dynamiq builds first superyacht with Porsche DNA

Monegasque yacht builder Dynamiq has joined forces with Studio F.A. Porsche to create an exclusive series of all-aluminium superyachts imbued with Porsche DNA. The world famous industrial and transport design studio, lead by Managing Director Roland Heiler (a Member of the Board at Porsche Design Group) has created both the exterior and interior styling of the entire range. The first 35-metre Dynamiq GTT 115 Hybrid is already under construction in Viareggio, Italy, while 100- and 85-foot models are in development and will be presented later this year.

"Taking the spirit of high-performance sportscar styling to the high seas, the Dynamiq GTT 115 is designed to appeal to car lovers and forward-thinking yacht owners who appreciate the advantages of speed, style and our philosophy of intelligent performance," says Roland Heiler. The sporty exterior design by Studio F.A. Porsche matches the yacht’s noteworthy performance, and the name says it all: GTT stands for Grand Turismo Transatlantic. Two world leaders in hydrodynamics, both from the Netherlands, were commissioned to create efficient hulls for the new series. Vripack developed the hull lines of the GTT 115, while Van Oossanen is responsible for the naval architecture of the GTT 100 and GTT 85 models. The GTT 115, the first in the series, features a round bilge aluminium hull and a specially engineered stabilisation system from Humphree with four electric fins and interceptors.

Powered by twin 1213kW MAN engines paired with the latest Fortjes 5000 pods, the versatile superyacht can exceed a maximum speed of 21 knots and is capable of crossing the Atlantic with a range of 3,400nm. With a shallow draft of just 1.45 metres (less than 5 feet), the yacht is ideal for the Mediterranean, Caribbean or Southeast Asia. An optional hybrid power system has been chosen for the first GTT 115 and is available via the exclusive Dynamiq Configurator. Other notable technical features include two technical compartments or engine rooms, with twin 45kW Fischer Panda variable-speed generators located in the bow. This smart layout ensures a silent ambience at night and avoids smoke and fumes at anchor while the owner and guests are swimming or sunbathing on the aft platform. Available in the signature Porsche Carrara white, Rhodium Silver, Chalk or custom Monte- Carlo Blue exterior colours, the GTT 115 boasts refined lines with signature Porsche elements, such as the Targa-style mullions or the transom design that echoes the Mission E concept.

The deck cushions feature fabric centres with a classic Pepita houndstooth pattern, similar to the latest 991 R edition. On the inside, the sporty yet refined interior features three or four luxury cabins with Saddle brown and Luxor beige leather with carbon fibre details, and expansive surfaces of Sahara Noir marble. The furniture and decoration were developed in association with the Italian designer brand Minotti. “When we talk about comfort and top service, the ideal for this size of yacht is six guests in three cabins served by a 1:1 ratio of six crew for genuinely exclusive onboard service,” says Dynamiq CEO Sergei Dobroserdov. “We also designed the interior ceiling heights to more than 2.15 metres (7 feet), even in the lower deck cabins: that’s real luxury on a 35- metre yacht.” In fact, Dynamiq yachts bring the comfort and luxury of much larger superyachts to a smaller segment of the market.

They are aimed at a discerning clientele that appreciates the builder’s rational approach to creating more manageable yachts. “Our target clients might include those who are looking to downsize from larger 50- or 60- metre yachts,” continues Dobroserdov. “They are already accustomed to the highest standards, but are ready to leave behind the hassle and huge costs of owning large vessels so they can enjoy the fun side of yacht ownership. The Dynamiq GTT 115 is the perfect realisation of utmost comfort and a sporty lifestyle in a practical and relatively compact package.” What truly sets Dynamiq apart as a builder is the ability for clients to configure their purchase online to their own specific requirements, all within a short delivery time. The GTT 115 is no exception and can be customised via Dynamiq’s unique Configurator, which allows the client to personalise every aspect of the yacht, from paint colours to interiors and electronics, and automatically track the total cost in real time.

This easy-to-use innovation brings complete transparency to the yacht-buying process – just one way that Dynamiq is seeking to bring about a paradigm shift in the yachting industry. A limited edition of just seven GTT 115 yachts will be manufactured, making the model a truly unique collector’s edition. Prices for the GTT 115 start from €11,900,000, with a short delivery time of 15 months from the date of order. The first GTT 115 by Studio F.A. Porsche is available for sale with delivery in September Her world debut will take place at the 2017 Monaco Yacht Show and the yacht will attend subsequent international events
