Pirelli 47, a Maxi-Rib combining sporting character with freedom on board

Available in Open and Closed versions, the 14.75-metre Pirelli 47 combines speed, protection and flexible outdoor living

The Pirelli 47 blends two versions, customisable spaces, triple outboards and a double-step hull in a distinctive Maxi-Rib

At 14.75 metres in length, the new Pirelli 47 enters the Maxi-Rib segment with a balanced combination of performance, protection and usable living space. It is not conceived merely as a fast boat for short coastal transfers. Its adaptable deck, sheltered areas and transformable interior also make it suitable for full days at sea and longer escapes away from the marina.

One boat offering two different ways to enjoy the sea

The Pirelli 47 is available in Open and Closed versions, each designed around a different style of boating. The Open model maintains a direct connection with the surroundings while providing shade through its extended hard top. The Closed version introduces opening glass panels that create a more protected central area, while preserving uninterrupted walkaround access between the bow and stern.

Confident lines shaped with restraint

Its profile immediately communicates speed and energy, yet the design does not rely on aggression alone. Taut surfaces, balanced proportions and the distinctive hard-top structure create a recognisable silhouette. The inflatable tubes are incorporated naturally into the overall composition, reinforcing the impression of strength without dominating the appearance of the boat.

A deck designed for effortless movement

The walkaround arrangement allows guests to move naturally around the entire deck. Wide side passages and high bulwarks contribute to a reassuring feeling of safety, particularly when several people are on board. The circulation routes remain separate enough from the social areas to prevent the cockpit from feeling crowded during swimming stops, lunches or faster passages along the coast.

A cockpit that adapts throughout the day

The stern can be configured with a large sunpad, a double dinette, a single sofa or a storage and service unit. Different arrangements are also available amidships, including an L-shaped sofa offered exclusively on the Closed version. These alternatives allow owners to favour sunbathing, entertaining or a more practical deck layout while retaining the boat’s strong visual identity.

Shelter without losing the open-air experience

The extended hard top protects the helm station and part of the social area from direct sunlight. An opening roof makes it possible to adjust shade, ventilation and natural light according to the weather. On the Closed model, the opening glass surfaces add another level of flexibility, creating a sheltered environment that can quickly reconnect with the sea when conditions become more favourable.

A hull created for confident high-speed cruising

The Pirelli 47 uses a double-step Deep V hull developed by the Mannerfelt Design Team. Its 23-degree deadrise is intended to combine accurate handling, offshore capability and stability at speed. The design draws on the team’s experience in powerboat racing, but translates that expertise into a platform conceived for recreational boating and comfortable coastal cruising.

Triple outboards reveal its sporting personality

The recommended propulsion package consists of three 425 hp outboard engines, delivering a total of 1,275 hp. A twin 600 hp alternative is also available. Outboard propulsion supports easier access to the engines, preserves useful space within the hull and reinforces the dynamic nature of a model that clearly places performance among its defining qualities.

Below deck, flexibility takes priority

Rather than attempting to reproduce the interior of a conventional yacht on a smaller scale, the accommodation focuses on transformable spaces. The living area can become a sleeping zone for two people, while a full-height bathroom makes overnight stays more practical. This gives the boat the versatility to move comfortably between fast day trips and short cruises away from its home port.

Generous dimensions used with purpose

The Pirelli 47 measures 14.75 metres overall and has a beam of 4.58 metres. It can carry up to 18 people and includes a 1,300-litre fuel tank together with a 250-litre freshwater capacity. CE Category B certification reflects its offshore-oriented design, while a draught of 0.90 metres remains suitable for many of the bays and marinas encountered during Mediterranean cruising.

A Maxi-Rib shaped around the owner’s choices

Instead of imposing a single formula, the Pirelli 47 offers a platform that can be configured around different boating habits. Open or Closed, sunpad or dinette, greater exposure to the elements or additional shelter, each decision changes the way the boat can be used. Its sporting identity remains constant, supported by practical spaces, secure movement around the deck and the freedom to create a layout suited to the owner.
