GX Superyachts is the brainchild of the team behind Greenline Yachts, which has been producing efficient hybrid yachts up to 58ft for more than 15 years. Taking that experience of cutting-edge hybrid propulsion, smart hull design and solar charging, they have made the next step by addressing their vision to the superyacht sector.
The result is a line-up of 24-56m custom yachts which offer seductive design and extraordinary comfort for the true yachting lifestyle. And yet, the new brand fully embraces Greenline’s core principle of responsible yachting. They will set a new benchmark in environmental performance centered on Greenline’s unique serial hybrid drive and powerful solar arrays which form part of the structure of the yacht.
“Our journey started with Greenline Yachts, where we pioneered the world’s first serial production hybrid yacht over 10 meters back in 2008,” said yard owner Vladimir Zinchenko. “With more than 1,000 yachts delivered globally, Greenline has been at the forefront of innovation in the boating industry. Throughout that time, we have tried to further our vision of responsible yachting – from sourcing raw materials right through to the operation of the yacht itself.”
GX Superyachts has also appointed Andrea Armas as consultant to the Board of Directors. Andrea is a seasoned professional with 28 years of experience as an owner’s representative for major international shipyards, to serve as an advisor to the Board. A naval architect and marine engineer specializing in yacht building supervision for discerning owners, Andrea brings over 28 years of yacht building expertise to the team. He stated, „I am backing GX Superyachts because I admire their ambition and vision. My goal is to help the team translate their decade-long experience in hybrid recreational boat building into the highly regulated superyacht sector.“
GX Superyachts unites a galaxy of design stars. Marco Casali is responsible for the achingly sleek exterior lines of the new range, which unites an efficient low-profile superstructure with exceptional interior volumes.
Two striking variants of each model are available. The Coupé has a long, curved superstructure roofed with gleaming solar panels, which slide apart at the touch of a button to reveal a huge hidden sun deck complete with jacuzzi and bar. The RPH version offers a large flybridge with an uncompromising modern aesthetic and 353 gross tonnes of volume. Both are endowed with a vast beach club that has fold-down wings and a hydraulic platform.
Casali has also deployed his talents to design an interior that delivers on the promises of those lines and creates a single, coherent whole. Passing from the generous aft decks into the main salon or the flybridge will feel like a natural, harmonious progression. His vision for the styling of the first GX42 draws on some of the finest specialized brands in the world. For instance, the yacht’s bathrooms are fitted with Antonio Lupi porcelainware and Dornbracht faucets. Loose furniture comes from Poltrona Frau and Rugiano, while exquisite Foglizzo leathers and natural wood flooring by Cadorin also feature.
