A milestone for Invictus Yacht
Since its launch in 2015, the GT280 has established itself as a flagship model in the Invictus Yacht range. To celebrate the construction of its 300? unit, the Italian shipyard is unveiling a special edition, the GT280 Carbon Look, which showcases advances in materials and manufacturing processes. With this limited edition, Invictus Yacht combines tradition and innovation to offer a high-performance, elegant and environmentally-friendly craft.
Pre-preg technology: a turning point for series production
The use of "pre-preg" carbon fiber marks a major evolution. Unlike conventional infusion methods, this technology allows optimum control of resin distribution, resulting in a more homogeneous, lighter structure.
Key benefits include :
- Weight reduction: 50% weight reduction between hull and deck.
- Enhanced performance: 40% reduction in fuel consumption thanks to a lighter engine.
- Reduced environmental impact: reduced waste and emissions during the manufacturing process.
This technology, already used in the manufacture of foils for the America's Cup, is adapted here to an 8.90-meter unit, opening the way to wider applications in the yachting sector.
Uncompromising design and comfort
The GT280 Carbon Look is distinguished by a design that combines aesthetics and functionality. The carbon fiber hull, with its glossy black finish, creates a striking contrast with the light-toned deck and interior, ensuring comfort and practicality on summer days.
The details are not left to chance:
- Exposed carbon-fiber instrumentation.
- Black stainless steel fittings to match the overall design.
- Optimized powertrain with a 300 hp Volvo Penta V8.
As a unique edition, the GT280 Carbon Look symbolizes both the brand's expertise and its ability to adapt to a rapidly changing market.
