An aluminum hull, powerful engines, a cabin with a bathroom, and a convertible cockpit with fold-down bulwarks – this winning combination was chosen for its "civilian" model by the Italian company MED Group, based in Cervia. The company specializes in building high-speed aluminum boats for the military and public sectors.

The 10.5-meter TYKUN X can reach speeds of up to 55 knots, powered by twin Mercury Verado 400 engines. Its aluminum construction ensures durability, lightweight performance, and high seaworthiness, even in rough conditions. The boat’s twin-stepped hull, designed by Carlo Bertorello, enhances stability and efficiency, making it suitable for both high-speed cruising and comfortable guest transfers.

The TYKUN X is not only about performance; it also offers flexibility in design. Owners can customize the layout to suit their needs, including features like drop-down bulwarks, sun pads, and a wet bar. An interior cabin provides overnight accommodations, while the cockpit can be configured for socializing or relaxing.

MED Group plans to expand the TYKUN range with an 8-meter and a 12-meter version, as well as a hydrogen-powered model. The hydrogen version, already pre-certified, reflects the company’s commitment to sustainable maritime technology.
