High-speed Pershing motor yacht African Wild Dog sold

20 August 2025 • Written by Nick Jeffery and Emily Dawkins

Pershing's 25-metre motor yacht African Wild Dog has been sold in-house at Ocean Independence, with broker Bob Friscia representing both the seller and the buyer.

African Wild Dog was constructed in carbon fibre composite, and delivered in 2018 by the Ferretti Group brand as the 18th unit from Pershing's 82 series. The 52-knot 82 VHP (Very High Performance) model was designed throughout by Fulvio De Simoni, with naval architecture by Ferretti Engineering Department.

African Wild Dog was last asking €3,400,000

Accommodation on board is for a party of up to seven in three cabins, comprising an owner's suite, a VIP double cabin and a twin cabin with a Pullman berth. Meanwhile, there are further quarters for a crew of three.

She boasts a lower-deck media room and an open-plan main saloon with a sit-up bar forward (immediately aft of the triple helm station seats) that forms a focal point. The broker described African Wild Dog as "the perfect marriage between high-speed thrills, graceful aesthetics and opulent comfort".

Up on the sundeck is another helm station, with views over the foredeck lounging and sunbathing areas, and a large sunpad to aft. Closer to the water, on the main aft deck, there is another large multi-person sunpad, flanked by twin steps leading to the handy swim platform and opening transom garage.

Powered by twin 2,638hp MTU engines, the 108GT yacht boasts a top speed of 52 knots and a cruising speed of 40 knots.

African Wild Dog was last asking €3,400,000.
