The Otam 85 GTS "Cara Montana" was launched in Genoa and underwent its first test runs.

The order for the Otam 85GTS was placed by an experienced serial yacht owner who is realising his custom dream with the tailor-made hardtop format. The styling specifications for the interior came from the Parisian architects and interior designers at Joseph Dirand Architecture, while the exterior styling was created in cooperation with the shipyard. The fast hull lines of "Cara Montana" were calculated by Otam's engineers together with Marine Design & Services from Rapallo, Italy. Two sixteen-cylinder MTU engines with a total output of 3878 kilowatts accelerated the 85GTS to over 45 knots. Below deck there are three cabins for six people, with two crew members in command and service. Cornelsen & Partner from Glückstadt in northern Germany acts as the owner's representative. The Organizzazione Tigullio Assistenza Motoscafi (OTAM) is exhibiting the 85GTS at the Cannes Yachting Festival 2019.
