Fairline Targa 47 GT: Design and functionality
The Fairline Targa 47 GT is the latest addition to the mid-sized cruiser category. Its primary feature is a contemporary hardtop equipped with extensive glass surfaces, allowing natural light to fill the main deck. The interior layout includes two cabins designed according to the standards of the shipyard’s larger models, utilizing materials focused on durability and ergonomics.
In the engine room, the vessel is powered by twin Volvo Penta IPS650 engines, enabling a top speed of approximately 32 knots. Vessel control is supported by digital navigation systems, while the exterior spaces emphasize practicality with the addition of a hydraulic bathing platform at the stern and a fixed outdoor bar in the cockpit for guest service.
Fairline Targa 50 edition: Technical features and layout
The Targa 50 Edition is a special version of the well-known model in the series, featuring aesthetic updates such as an anthracite roof and aerodynamic hull lines. The deck design focuses on creating open-cockpit spaces with expansive areas for seating and sunbathing, facilitating easy movement for passengers from the stern to the interior salon.
Regarding the mechanical specifications, the yacht is equipped with the Volvo Penta IPS700 propulsion system, which offers a maximum speed of 34 knots and improved fuel efficiency at cruising speeds. Inside, the decor follows a minimalist line with leather upholstery and oak flooring, while the lighting has been engineered to highlight the cabin’s volume without compromising usable space.
