Marking Mylius Yachts’ return to the motor yacht market, the M47P blends lightweight construction, innovative hull design and Italian craftmanship to create a luxury and highperformance 15.4m powerboat
The worlds of sailing yachts and motor yachts are distinct, each with its own philosophy, engineering priorities and aesthetic principles. Building both is no small feat, yet renowned sailing yacht builder Mylius Yachts has boldly returned to the motor yacht market with the M47P. Applying its expertise in lightweight construction, hydrodynamic efficiency and precision engineering, the shipyard has produced a powerboat that delivers high performance with the flowing and minimalistic lines that define the brand, while introducing a more industrial feel. Designed by longtime Mylius collaborator Alberto Simeone, the M47P’s streamlined form exudes a sense of lightness and agility. The clean, muscular and streamlined contours emphasise speed, efficiency, and balance, ensuring that the boat looks as fast as it moves. Built with advanced lightweight materials and equipped with four Mercury 500 R outboard engines, the M47P can reach speeds of up to 56 knots. Refined elements finish the design, including a teak deck and a unique carbon hardtop that evokes a wave rising from the deck.

rapid planing and superior control. It delivers an impressive level of comfort, without vibration and pitching, remaining stable and perfectly dry even at top speeds – a design feat that stands out in the segment. With an architectural approach to space, the M47P integrates form and function. The choice of outboard engines allows for an intelligent layout that balances social spaces, performance, and luxury both on deck and below. Outdoors, guests can dine in the comfortable cockpit or enjoy the exhilarating ride on seats specifically designed for high speeds, which can transform into a large sunbathing area at anchor. Optional fold-down side panels can convert into beach platforms to enhance the connection with the sea.
Inside, the thoughtfully proportioned space is defined by sleek finishes and elegant textures. Owners can select from various materials and upholstery options, including prestigious brands such as Loro Piana or Maria Flora. The standard layout offers a forward owner’s suite with a king-size bed, en-suite bathroom and ample storage. A second guest cabin is discreetly accessed from the cockpit. This architectural flow creates an effortless interplay between social and private spaces.
Fitted with customisable Besenzoni seating, the ergonomic helm station is equipped with two 19-inch Garmin displays integrated with the Empirebus input/output system, allowing for full monitoring of all systems, instruments and key utilities onboard. In addition to the steering wheel and throttle, a joystick-controlled docking system enhances manoeuvrability. The retractable telescopic anchor and Garmin-linked infotainment system can also be controlled from the helm – a setup designed for effortless handling. With the launch of the M47P, Mylius Yachts signals a new era of innovation. Reflecting a commitment to performance, distinctive style and customisation, the M47P is the ultimate synthesis of Italian craftsmanship and cutting-edge technology mylius.it
