I SA Yachts strengthens its presence in the super sport yacht segment with the sale of the new ISA GTO 70, a 22-metre model scheduled for delivery in summer 2026. The yacht has been commissioned by an existing ISA Yachts client, conceived as a high-performance companion to the owner’s megayacht and developed through a close, tailor-made collaboration with the shipyard.
The ISA GTO 70 is designed for owners who experience the sea through speed, control and precision. Compact, lightweight and radically performance-driven, the project draws a clear line back to the heritage that made ISA Yachts a reference in high-speed design, echoing the philosophy behind one of the yard’s most iconic models, the ISA 120ft.
The yacht introduces a new design collaboration with Galeazzi Design, responsible for both exterior and interior architecture. The result is a contemporary interpretation of the luxury speed yacht: sharp surfaces, aggressive proportions and a visual language where every line is dictated by function and performance rather than decoration.
At its core, the ISA GTO 70 is an advanced engineering platform. The ultra-high-performance planing hull has been developed by ISA Yachts’ naval engineering team through extensive computational fluid dynamics (CFD) analysis, ensuring stability, efficiency and precise handling even at extreme speeds.
Propulsion is provided by twin MAN V12 engines delivering 1,650 hp each, coupled with ASD Arneson surface drives, enabling a top speed of 50 knots. The extensive use of carbon fibre across the hull and superstructure significantly reduces weight, placing the yacht firmly in the ultra-light, high-performance category and enhancing acceleration and dynamic response.
The exterior design reinterprets ISA’s signature lines with a stronger emphasis on fluidity and continuity, reinforcing the sensation of motion even when the yacht is at rest. Inside, the approach is deliberately high-tech, combining lightweight, performance-oriented materials with refined Made in Italy craftsmanship. The lower deck accommodates a forward master cabin, a VIP cabin and a twin guest cabin amidships, offering comfort without compromising the yacht’s sporting identity.
The fully integrated bridge is equipped with advanced navigation and monitoring systems, designed to deliver maximum control, immediate readability and safety at very high speeds. Crew accommodation for up to two is arranged in an independent cabin, while the galley is also positioned below deck and separated from guest areas, ensuring privacy and operational efficiency.
With the ISA GTO 70, ISA Yachts continues to refine its vision of the modern super sport yacht, combining extreme performance, advanced materials and a design language driven entirely by speed.
