Gran Turismo 36 – the Newest Beneteau
June 25, 2020
Beneteau may have outdone itself with introduction of its new Gran Turismo 36, manufactured in Cadillac, Michigan for the North American market. As its name implies, the Gran Turismo 36 was built for distance and speed with 2 x 350 horsepower inboard or outboard engine options. Yet, luxury is at the soul of the nearly 38-foot-long watercraft, which includes detailed features focused on both comfort and function.
“We’re really excited about this vessel as it captures the ideal blend of sports performance and creature comforts plus, she is perfect for entertaining. It also means a great deal to us that the boat was 100 percent built in our Michigan facility,” said Justin Joyner, BENETEAU.
The boat’s outer deck layout is optimized for four people with its two forward-facing bench seats at the helm while the spacious cockpit lounge fits up to seven. The aft bench seats can likewise be folded back to convert the area to a sunbathing space. An outdoor galley and swim platform round out the outer deck features.
Below deck, the forward owner cabin encompasses a full-sized bed, panoramic windows and ample storage; while the aft guest cabin provides two berths separated by a door. Midship is a lounge that seats three and galley outfitted with high quality appliances. Separate shower and toilet spaces are partitioned off from the vanity. Both heating and air conditioning come standard.
