Three engine packages, one target: a cruising speed of 22 knots without compromise.
The standard specification pairs twin Volvo Penta D13 engines, 900 horsepower each, delivering a top speed of 28 knots and a cruising speed of 22. Owners who want more headroom can step up to the D13-1000 package, or choose a twin MAN i6-800 configuration instead, a level of choice unusual at this size. A 4,200 litre fuel capacity supports a 350 nautical mile range at cruise, enough for genuine passage making rather than day trips alone. The 1.5 metre draught keeps a wider set of harbours and anchorages within reach, a practical advantage for an owner who wants to explore rather than stay tied to the same marinas each season.
At nearly twenty three metres, Garroni Design has kept the M8’s lines taut rather than letting the extra length add bulk.
The same studio handles both the naval architecture and the exterior styling, a continuity that shows in how the hull and superstructure read as one idea rather than two. A 5.5 metre beam carries real volume on board without widening her profile into something heavy, and the GRP planing hull is built to stay efficient at speed despite her displacement. Set against the shorter M7 in the same range, the M8 trades some outright agility for interior space, a straightforward exchange that Garroni Design has handled without losing the family resemblance between the two models.
Four cabins for eight guests, laid out by a team that designs specifically for how Prestige owners live on board.
The Prestige Design Team has spread sleeping accommodation across four staterooms, giving the M8 genuine flexibility for family groups or a wider circle of guests, while day capacity extends to twelve for entertaining at anchor. That additional cabin over the M7 is the clearest practical difference between the two models, and it changes who the M8 suits best: owners who regularly host more than a single family group. Two crew are carried as standard, enough to run the yacht and look after guests without adding unnecessary complexity to day to day ownership.
A longer hull built from the same engineering logic as her smaller sister, tuned instead for range and capacity.
Prestige Engineering and Garroni Design have extended the naval architecture that underpins the M7 to a 22.5 metre platform, keeping the same 1.5 metre draught despite the added length and displacement. The GRP planing hull is built to carry three possible engine configurations without compromise, a flexibility that comes from engineering the structure around a range of outputs rather than a single fixed package. It is this kind of shared groundwork across the range that lets Prestige offer real configuration choice without each model feeling like an afterthought.
Four cabins, three engine options, and a price built to make the case for more yacht rather than more spend.
At 22.5 metres, the Prestige M8 carries a new price of 2.8 million euros, a figure that sits below the shorter M7 in the same range despite offering two additional cabins. Two crew come as standard, and buyers choose between three distinct powertrain packages to match the way they intend to use her, from Volvo Penta D13 engines at 900 or 1,000 horsepower to a twin MAN i6-800 alternative. For an owner comparing options within Prestige’s own range, the M8 makes a clear case: more accommodation, comparable performance, and a price that rewards looking past length alone.
