Stallion

A cruising speed of 35 knots and a top end of 42 sets the tone for life aboard Stallion: this is a yacht built to close the distance to a lunch spot or a sandbar quickly, then switch into an entertaining boat once the anchor is down. Pershing built her in 2022 as a 9X, and Stallion carries that sports pedigree in her low, purposeful lines.

Build and provenance

She has a composite monohull built by Pershing, an Italian yard known for performance motor yachts, and at 115 gross tonnes she stays light enough for her engines to do their work. Recent servicing, including fresh bottom paint, engine work and a new watermaker membrane, keeps her mechanically current rather than resting on her 2022 build date.

Layout and accommodation

Four cabins sleep eight guests, with room for three crew. The main salon has a full wet bar, and Poltrona Frau designed the helm station, a detail that lifts the interior finish above a standard production sports yacht. Teak decking runs through the aft cockpit and side walkways, tying the outdoor spaces together.

Performance and engineering

Two engines, each producing 5,276 hp, give Stallion her 35-knot cruise and 42-knot top speed, and a pair of Seakeeper 9 gyrostabilisers keep the ride level at both. Joystick control handles her in tight quarters, and upper and lower helm stations mean she can be run from either position depending on the weather. For a buyer, that combination reads as a yacht built for speed first, with the systems to make close quarters handling straightforward.

On deck and at anchor

The sun deck is built to work at speed and at anchor alike, with lounging space that turns it into the social deck once the engines are off. A tender garage stows toys out of sight until they are needed, and air conditioning keeps the cabins comfortable at anchor in Fort Lauderdale's heat.

Where she lies and how to see her

Stallion lies in Fort Lauderdale in the United States. We set up viewings for anyone considering her and are there for each one, and once an offer is accepted, the survey and sea trial that follow are ours to organise alongside you.
