GX Superyachts is the brainchild of Greenline Yachts team that has been manufacturing efficient hybrid yachts under 58 ft (18 m) for over 15 years 

Based on its experience of cutting-edge hybrid propulsion, innovative hull design and solar batteries, Greenline has decided to address the superyacht segement. And they are not just plans: the first 42-metre model is currently in build. 

“Our journey started with Greenline Yachts, where we pioneered the world’s first serial production hybrid yacht over 10 meters back in 2008,” commented yard owner Vladimir Zinchenko. “With more than 1000 yachts delivered globally, Greenline has been at the forefront of innovation in the boating industry. Throughout that time, we have tried to further our vision of responsible yachting – from sourcing raw materials right through to the operation of the yacht itself.”

The GX Superyachts’ design by Marco Casali offers two superstructure versions. The Coupé has a long, curved superstructure fitted with solar panels, which slide apart at the touch of a button to reveal a huge hidden sun deck with a jacuzzi and a bar. The RPH version offers a large flybridge. Both versions boast a vast beach club with fold-down wings and a hydraulic platform.

The yachts will be built of aluminium and combine luxury and sustainability. The yard promises to set a new benchmark in environmental performance centered on Greenline’s hybrid drive and powerful solar arrays, which form part of the yacht’s structure.

Due to the fact that Greenline is an expert in composite yachts and its production facilities are located in Slovenia and are capable of working with hulls under 24 m, a lot of attention has been given to the choice of a new build partner for large aluminum yachts. Out of 20 shortlisted yards, GX chose to sign with Turkish custom specialist SES Yachts, whose production facility is based in Tuzla.
