New Endurance 72, the elegance of long-range cruising by Pardo Yachts

Pardo Endurance 72 : hull efficiency and low consumption

This elegant and luxurious yacht doesn’t overlook increasingly important aspects like efficiency and eco-sustainability. The technicians at the Forlì-based shipyard have designed solutions for the hull, optimizing it for IPS propulsion, preparing the engine room for hybrid motors, and enabling eco-speed cruising to maximize comfort, range, and fuel efficiency.

Following extensive Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) studies, Pardo Yachts developed a “warped” hull with a progressively decreasing deadrise angle from bow to stern. This design improves dynamic stability when planing in rough seas. The IPS drives provide precise joystick control, simplifying handling and docking even with a reduced crew.

Owners can choose between two propulsion options: standard (2 x Volvo Penta D13 IPS 1050) and optional (2 x Volvo Penta IPS 1350), both of which can be installed without modifications in an engine room already prepared for hybrid integration.

With the Endurance 72, Pardo Yachts introduces the eco-speed parameter, identifying the optimal cruising speed for efficiency, comfort, and fuel economy. In the IPS 1350 configuration, eco-speed is achieved at approximately 12 knots, with a consumption of 80 liters per hour and an endurance of 72 hours or 900 nautical miles.

Large fuel and water tanks further extend autonomy, minimizing the need for frequent refueling and ensuring a seamless cruising experience.

Interior Design by Burdissocapponi

For the Endurance 72, Pardo Yachts has partnered with the renowned BURDISSOCAPPONI Yachts & Design studio for interior layout and decor. While respecting the shipyard’s signature family feeling, the studio has reinterpreted the design of the Endurance 60 with a contemporary and sophisticated approach. Prioritizing both livability and style, the main deck features an aft-positioned galley, seamlessly serving the cockpit and dining area. Below deck, the layout includes four en-suite cabins, an additional day head, and a crew cabin with a private entrance from the bow.

Thanks to large windows and sliding doors, the main deck enjoys uninterrupted connections to the outdoors, elevating the cruising experience. Opposite the galley, the dining area opens onto the terrace via a side door, while moving forward, a spacious lounge with a chaise longue and a cozy sofa creates the ideal setting for entertainment. The redesigned helm station boasts a modern, integrated layout with a seamless display panel and ample storage.

A dual-access staircase enhances privacy in the lower deck. The central staircase leads to the day head and the aft owner and VIP suites, while the forward staircase provides access to the twin guest cabins.

The owner’s suite features a built-in desk with a TV lift, elegantly dividing the sleeping and wardrobe areas. A glass double-door entry to the en-suite bath allows natural light to flow into the cabin, while separate toilet and shower areas are enclosed with frosted glass partitions.

Innovative solutions and finishes

Innovative technical solutions on the Endurance 72 enhance onboard comfort, such as concealed air conditioning vents and a dual-layer lighting system. The first, an indirect lighting scheme, integrates LED bars into the ceiling to create a dynamic texture, while the second features spotlight pairs recessed into ceiling panels for accent illumination.

The use of wood and technical materials has allowed for a reinterpretation of the interior space without altering its essence. The primary wood essence is matte-finished gray walnut, reserved for key structural elements such as ceiling panels, main deck flooring, cabinetry bases, and wall paneling.

To balance the warmth of wood, a palette of neutral and light colors is applied across different materials, fostering a fresh and airy environment in seamless connection with the exterior. Technical fabric ceilings, vertically grooved wall panels on the lower deck, desaturated light wood furniture, Chevron Beige fabric upholstery, Krion Pearl for the galley countertops, and continuous sand-toned resin surfaces in the bathrooms create a cohesive aesthetic. A distinctive touch of rust color serves as a unifying design element, appearing throughout the yacht—including the elegant ceramic sinks in the master bath. Matte black finishes on faucets, door handles, and lighting elements further underscore the yacht’s sporty yet sophisticated character.
