The Italian shipyard Invictus Yacht is expanding its TT series. At just under 17 metres in length, the new TT 550 model is the flagship and builds on the successful concept of the smaller TT 460. It is also designed as a typical Mediterranean boat. The focus is clearly on spacious outdoor areas and direct contact with the water. This is ensured, among other things, by fold-out side terraces in the cockpit, which significantly increase the usable area. The open aft deck offers plenty of space to relax. The backrest of the aft bench seat can be folded down to create a large sunbathing area.

A striking design feature is the slightly forward-sloping bow. It gives the boat dynamic lines. A feature that can be seen on several Invictus models. A sheltered passageway leads to the foredeck. There is another lounge area there, which can be covered with a sun awning during the day.

Invictus TT 550 comes with a flexible interior

Below deck on the TT 550, designer Christian Grande has planned two cabins and two bathrooms. Depending on the customer's wishes, the owner's cabin can be positioned in the bow or amidships. As an option, the saloon on the lower deck can also be replaced by a third cabin or a galley. A separate crew cabin is also possible on request.

A double carbon fibre hardtop protects the dinette and galley in the cockpit as well as the steering position. The garage in the stern is designed so that it can be used without disturbing guests on the sunbed.

Sporty motorisation with Volvo Penta IPS

The Invictus TT 550 is powered by two Volvo Penta IPS engines. The most powerful version, the IPS950, delivers 725 hp (533 kW) each. Thanks to the forward-facing propellers and electronic control, the IPS drives are said to be particularly efficient and manoeuvrable.

World premiere in Cannes

Editor Test & Technology

Ole Puls was born in Schleswig in 1999. He quickly swapped the football pitch for the Schlei and grew up sailing a wide variety of dinghies and tall ships. From his grandfather's self-built wooden opti and a Europe to a 49er and an X362 Sport, there was a lot to choose from. After leaving school, Puls decided to train as a boat builder at the high-tech shipyard Knierim Yachtbau in Kiel in 2016. He successfully completed his training in 2020 and stayed at the shipyard as a bachelor. In 2022, he decided not only to build boats, but also to test them. Since then, he has been working for Delius Klasing Verlag in the Test & Technology section of BOOTE magazine. The training he received and the eye for detail and quality of workmanship he acquired help him immensely today. Even though he is a regatta sailor with heart and soul, he feels right at home on motorboats and enjoys separating his professional and private lives and yet combining them. Because we all know one thing: there is simply no better place to be than on the water.
