Alloy Yachts' Fortune Elephant, a Masterpiece Born from New Zealand Craftsmanship In the late 1990s, Alloy Yachts—already renowned for their pioneering use of aluminum and luxury yacht innovation— embarked on a project that would showcase their engineering prowess and commitment to bespoke excellence: the creation of Fortune Elephant. Launched in 1997 from their Auckland shipyard, this 35.05-meter motor yacht is the only Sheerline 115 model ever built, making her a unique offering in the world of superyachts.
Design and Performance: Setting New Standards
Fortune Elephant was designed by the acclaimed Warwick Yacht Design team, who handled every aspect from naval architecture to interior styling. Her sleek, planing aluminum hull and superstructure not only provides lightweight strength but also delivered impressive speed and efficiency. With twin MTU diesel engines generating a combined 5,200 horsepower, she could reach a top speed of 28 knots and comfortably cruise at 25 knots—outpacing many of her contemporaries in the 35-40 meter range. Her range of 1,900 nautical miles at 10 knots meant she can undertake significant passages without compromise, while her 7.4-meter beam offers generous interior volume (280 GT), surpassing the average for yachts in her class.
