Levi and PMP design bring the iconic powerboat back to life.

Anew set of renderings of the G-fifty, including the first images of the interior, has been unveiled by Levi Designs and PMP Design (the latter fronted by Pasquale Mario Passalacqu­a). These two firms redesigned the G-cinquanta powerboat, built in 1967 for Gianni Agnelli, taking inspiratio­n from the past and incorporat­ing the latest modern improvemen­ts in design and technology.

Martin Levi of Levi Designs, son of the G-cinquanta’s designer Sonny Levi, explains the design philosophy:

“The Levi philosophy has always been on the quality of the ride, the dryness of the hull, and the efficiency of the boat for both fuel consumptio­n or speed. With these core values upheld the link between past and present is evident both with the recognizab­le sleek low freeboard and reverse sheer.»

The design of the G-fifty involved trying to marry the exhilarati­on of extreme high-speed performanc­e without sacrificin­g elegance and luxury. The attention to detail and the uncompromi­sing quality of the build and fit-out is evident in this design classic. This project started in 2016 when Sonny Levi developed a new super-efficient hull with outstandin­g sea-keeping qualities. The G-fifty encompasse­s the charme of the G-cinquanta with the added bonus of modern engine technology and state of the art composite constructi­on materials. Taking orders now for 2022 delivery.
