Denison Yachting has listed for sale Project Pegasus, an 88-meter superyacht concept designed by Jozeph Forakis. Exclusively offered as a new construction opportunity through Denison, Project Pegasus is a groundbreaking 3D printed superyacht solar-electric/hydrogen hybrid, heralded as the world's first, boasting zero emissions. This innovative vessel features reflective 'Solar Wings' and incorporates a multi-level "Tree of Life" hydroponic garden, providing both fresh food and air purification.



The concept has earned prestigious accolades, including the Elite Award and the International Yacht & Aviation Award. Recognized in the "Elite Concept Award" and "Interior Concept" categories, respectively, these awards celebrate Project Pegasus for its global exterior and interior excellence.



Designed with sustainability in mind, Jozeph Forakis envisions a yacht that is virtually invisible, both in design and environmental impact. Ottaviano Iacono, Founder of SuperyachtOne, praises the project's commitment to sustainability and hails the collaboration between Denison Yachting and Jozeph Forakis as an exciting venture.



James Roy, Managing Director of Lateral Naval Architects, expresses enthusiasm about pushing the boundaries of structural engineering and technology readiness with the Pegasus 88m design.



Alex G. Clarke, the Denison superyacht broker representing the project, sees Pegasus as more than a concept, describing it as groundbreaking and inspiring. The superyacht's construction involves robotic 3D printing, creating a mesh framework for both the hull and superstructure. This process results in a strong, lightweight structure produced with less energy, material, waste, space, and time compared to conventional methods.



The exterior design features a low, linear hull with a plumb bow and silver metallic finish, blending seamlessly with the water. Reflective glass wings, resembling chameleon-like elements, adorn the superstructure, creating a shape-shifting effect.



The lattice framework of the 3D-printed structure becomes visible through the reflective glass under specific angles and lighting conditions. 



Denison has long been a leader in the yachting industry with a rich family history dating back to 1948, and the start of Broward Marine in Fort Lauderdale. Today, the company provides complete yachting services worldwide, including superyacht sales, yacht charter, crew placement, and new construction. Denison operates out of over 20 waterfront offices with a team of 90+ licensed and bonded yacht brokers.

The yacht will debut at the Cannes Yachting Festival from September 9-14, 2025.The SX120 represents a technical evolution in the Italian builder's crossover range, combining elements of flybridge and explorer yachts. Its key innovation is the IPS Professional propulsion system, utilizing four compact 1,000 HP engines in twin-pod configuration. This setup reduces engine room space by 30% compared to conventional systems while improving fuel efficiency through Volvo Penta's Eco Mode automation and Selective Catalytic Reduction emissions treatment.Designed by Zuccon International Project with interiors by Piero Lissoni, the 270 GT yacht features a 70 sqm transformable beach club with retractable swimming pool and opening side terraces.

"The IPS Professional Platform allows unique design solutions for large yachts by reclaiming space typically dedicated to propulsion," said Sanlorenzo CEO Tommaso Vincenzi. The system enables a 15% reduction in fuel consumption at cruising speeds of 12 knots, with noise levels reduced by 7dB compared to traditional shaftline configurations.Construction utilizes advanced composites with carbon fiber reinforcement in high-load areas. The first hull features Lissoni's signature interior design with steel-clad central staircase, backlit master suite headboard, and ceramic marble-effect bathroom surfaces.Two additional SX120 units are currently in production, with delivery slots available from 2027. Pricing remains undisclosed, though industry analysts estimate base configuration costs exceeding €25 million. The model expands Sanlorenzo's SX line that began with the SX76 in 2017 and now represents 28% of the builder's order book.Volvo Penta Marine Sales VP Nicola Pomi noted: "The hydrodynamically optimized counter-rotating propellers reduce energy losses by 18% while improving low-speed maneuverability." The propulsion package includes integrated hybrid readiness for future battery retrofits.With 40% more exterior space than conventional motoryachts in its class, the SX120 offers 215 sqm of deck areas including a 45 sqm sun deck. Storage capacity accommodates a 5.5-meter tender and water toys in the garage.Sanlorenzo reports strong interest in the model from European and Asian markets, with the first unit destined for Mediterranean cruising.
