Forty eight knots, delivered from a hull just over ten metres long.
Twin Mercruiser 6.2 litre V8s, 350 horsepower apiece, give the 1017 GT Air a cruising speed of 28 knots and a top end of 48, numbers that place her well ahead of most open day boats her size. A double step hull keeps her flat through the turn and dry at speed, while the option of 430 horsepower Mercruiser or Volvo Penta power lifts performance further for owners who want more. Fuel capacity of 520 litres supports a range of around 300 nautical miles, enough for a full day on the water with margin to spare. She asks for no crew to run, so the performance is hers to enjoy directly, not managed from a distance.
Her lines are drawn for speed before they are drawn for show.
The 1017 GT Air carries Frauscher’s open sports profile without excess, a low, taut sheerline, a sculpted bow and an uncluttered deck that reads as fast standing still. Her double step hull sits beneath that profile for a reason beyond geometry. It keeps the ride flat at speed and the wake clean behind her. Finished with the clean, minimal detailing the yard is known for, she carries none of the bulk her displacement and power might suggest. At rest in a marina or running flat out across open water, the 1017 GT Air looks exactly as fast as she is.
She works as hard as a tender as she does as an owner’s own boat.
Open deck space runs the full length of the 1017 GT Air, with seating for eight guests during the day and clear sightlines from the console to the bow. That openness is deliberate. Frauscher builds her to double as a yacht’s tender and as a standalone day boat, which means no wasted space and no compromise on comfort either way. She needs no crew to operate, so an owner or a single deckhand can have her ready and away from a marina berth in minutes. For a season spent moving between anchorages, beaches and a larger yacht at anchor, that kind of readiness matters as much as her speed.
Below the open deck, a genuine cabin waits out of sight.
Two cabins and sleeping space for two sit beneath the console, reached through a space that by day works as a changing room and conceals a head within the same footprint. It is a practical solution rather than a decorative one. The deck above stays clear and uninterrupted, while the accommodation below gives an owner the option of staying aboard rather than always returning to a marina. For a boat built first for speed and day use, it is a detail that extends her usefulness well past sunset, without adding bulk to the hull or weight that would cost her performance.
The 1017 GT Air is built for an owner who wants speed without ceremony.
Built to Frauscher’s own in house design and engineering, she measures ten metres in length on a three metre beam, with a displacement of 4,500 kilograms and a draught of just 0.9 metres, shallow enough for the shoreline cruising her open layout is built for. Standard twin 350 horsepower Mercruiser engines can be upgraded to 430 horsepower Mercruiser or Volvo Penta power for owners who want the full 48 knots without compromise. She needs no crew, carries no excess, and asks nothing of an owner beyond enjoying what she was built to do. For a first Frauscher, or a tender upgraded into a yacht in her own right, she is a direct, confident choice.
