Elan GT5

Launched in 2017 to critical acclaim, the Elan GT5 was a ground-breaking concept in the world of sailing. Conceived as a grand tourer, a term borrowed from the automotive industry, the yacht exists on the crossover point between a luxury cruising yacht and a performance cruiser.

The GT5 has a performance hull, twin rudders and a hard active chine – all features designed by Humphreys Yacht Design and intended to increase the yacht’s performance and control. In combination with a semi-deck-saloon for increased interior volume, a handcrafted luxury interior and a myriad of luxurious equipment options, this is the quintessential luxury performance cruiser in the 40- to 45-foot range. 

With the bathing platform and the options of a cockpit galley featuring a fridge, grill and other amenities common on much larger yachts, the GT5 cockpit is designed for enjoying time with family and friends, offering ample seating area and various innovative cockpit table options converting the seating into a sunbathing lounge.
A clean deck design ensures fast and safe passage forward and enables plenty of space for sunbathing with dedicated cushions on the foredeck.

The space below deck is unique in her class. The Elan Design Team has implemented an inverted saloon layout featuring the galley forward, ensuring the optimal utilisation of the yacht’s volume for the most comfortable and innovative saloon in her size range. The galley forward layout offers ample storage space with a customisable corner to be equipped individually for each owner. The 180-degree panoramic skylight with the window-in-window feature, two hatches and one large central hatch allows the saloon to be ventilated at all times. The new GT5 is also the only yacht of this size to offer a separate shower compartment with a 3-cabin, 2-head interior layout.
