he pershing 80 is a vessel thatscratc­hestheitch­forownerss­eekinga luxury yacht with performanc­e at its core. Power for the 80 was either 2,030 hp or 2,345 hp MTU diesels paired to surface drives. Opening the windows and retractabl­e roof, and dropping the salon doors under the deck, created a mega-size center-console feeling. ¶ Belowdecks, three- or four-stateroom layouts were available. Both included a full-beam master stateroom amidships with a king-size berth. ¶ At press time, there were eight Pershing 80s on the brokerage market, ranging from $1.9 to $2.5 million.
