Pirelli 50, the new flagship of TecnoRib’s line of Walkarounds

The aerodynamic and contemporary look echoes the family feeling of the range launched in 2020, thanks also to the long-standing collaboration with Mannerfelt Design Team

After Pirelli 42 and Pirelli 35, Pirelli 50 combines the sportiness of a Maxi-RIB with the hospitality of a yacht. It is designed for versatile use like its predecessors: it is suitable for day cruising but also for medium range cruising, and is ideal as a chase boat for a superyacht.

The two-step planning hull, which combines the highest level of stability and safety with exceptional performance, was designed by Ocke Mannerfelt, while his son Ted, now head of the firm, was responsible for the clean, essential lines. The external layout allows for extreme freedom of movement, thanks to the creation of a single central block that incorporates the bow sundeck, leaving a clear passageway forward. The entire perimeter walkway is protected by the sides and served by two long handrails that are only slightly perceptible from the outside.

The large, comfortable aft sundeck has a pantograph backrest to serve both the sundeck and dining area. Behind the solarium area is the dinette, where a teak table extendable on both sides allows you to dine in comfort. The bar/kitchen area, covered by the continuation of the hard top, is fitted with a sleek black unit that includes a sink, hob with two induction burners, three refrigerators and icemaker. In the bow area the sundeck is accessible through the side walkways, it is completed by two guards that also act as armrests and, opposite, a large sofa in the bow triangle.

The black, ergonomic helm station has three seats, with folding elements to choose the most suitable seating. The first Pirelli 50 is powered by a pair of Mercury Verado outboard engines with 600 horsepower each. The two seven-and-a-half-litre V12 engines, equipped with a two-speed powershift transmission and steerable foot, guarantee a maximum speed of 50 knots.
