The Monaco Yacht Show served as the prestigious stage for the worldwide premiere of the all-new Tecnomar for Lamborghini 101FT, a stunning motoryacht born from the continued, successful partnership between Automobili Lamborghini and The Italian Sea Group. Building on the triumph of the Tecnomar for Lamborghini 63, which launched in 2020 as a tribute to the Sant’Agata marque’s founding year, this new 30-meter-long vessel is a potent synthesis of high tech engineering and iconic Italian design. The project’s core ethos is to deliver an unparalleled experience for the owner, mirroring the thrill and exclusivity felt by those who drive a Lamborghini super sports car.
This architectural marvel on water embodies the shared vision of two global standard-bearers for Made in Italy excellence. The yacht’s conception fuses the technical prowess and engineering innovation of The Italian Sea Group with the distinctive, instantly recognizable aesthetic and cutting-edge drive of Lamborghini’s creations. As Stephan Winkelmann, Chairman and CEO of Automobili Lamborghini, remarks, the 101FT takes the brand’s fundamental DNA of performance, design, and innovation and seamlessly translates it to the sea, affirming the project as more than a yacht—it’s a definitive statement of Italian luxury.
From the exterior, the 101FT instantly commands attention, drawing inspiration directly from the limited-edition Fenomeno1, a rare few-off hypercar. This influence is immediately apparent in the launch livery’s vibrant Giallo Criuscolor and the distinctive light clusters, which echo the automotive designs from Sant’Agata Bolognese. The entirety of the exterior lines possess that essential, iconic hallmark of the brand, where every meticulously studied detail maximizes functionality while maintaining an unparalleled aesthetic purity, ensuring its strong presence in the realm of nautical architecture.
The synergy continues within, as the yacht’s helm station unmistakably references the cockpit of a Lamborghini, taking clear cues from the Temerario2, the brand’s “fuoriclasse” hybrid V8 HPEV. This thoughtful integration ensures that commanding the 101FT elicits the visceral feeling of being behind the wheel of a high-performance Lamborghini vehicle. Furthermore, the interiors maintain a cohesive affinity with the cars, utilizing signature colors, precise stitching, and characteristic forms. Key design elements, such as the iconic hexagonal shapes, clean lines, and the unmistakable “Y”-motif, are distributed throughout the luxurious cabins.
Designed for extended voyages, the yacht provides spacious and comfortable environments, capable of accommodating up to nine guests alongside three dedicated crew cabins. Mitja Borkert, Design Director of Automobili Lamborghini, notes that every element, from the exterior shape and striking color to the carefully considered interior zones, is inspired by and recalls the brand’s DNA. The twenty-year history of the Centro Stile at the historical headquarters ensures a high level of art and meticulous detail in the yacht’s unique contemporary design.
The Tecnomar for Lamborghini 101FT is not just a study in art and design; it’s an engineering powerhouse. Its technical specifications are impressive, featuring three potent MTU 16V 2000 M96L engines coupled with three surface propellers. This formidable setup, yielding a total output of 7,600 horsepower, enables the yacht to reach an exhilarating top speed of 45 knots while maintaining a comfortable cruising speed of 35 knots, ensuring both efficiency and reliability under all conditions. The definitive, full-scale model is anticipated to set sail at the end of 2027, promising a new era for performance and luxury in the yacht world.
