The model was first unveiled at the Cannes Yachting Festival 2024, and according to the information from Ferretti Group, the first three units have already been sold

The new model is the result of collaboration with Filippo Salvetti, who worked on her exterior design in line with the latest creations by Ferretti Yachts, but added a few distinct features, too. Thus, the main deck now features expansive floor-to-ceiling glazing, while the raised pilothouse has been integrated harmoniously into the profile.

The designer worked really well on the hull and superstructure lines to ensure integral visual perception. The flybridge got a few extra metres as it extends toward the stern, but the construction does not look bulky thanks to the hard top on steel poles. Thanks to this solution the spacious cockpit area is well protected from the sun and bad weather.

The vessel with a beam of 6.8 m offers five cabins. The master suite with a bathroom is located on the main deck forward, while there are three VIP cabins and one cabin with two sliding beds below deck.

Thanks to the interior design experts from IdeaeITALIA, who combined various materials skillfully, the first unit can warm and inviting atmosphere. It is particularly obvious in the saloon of 30 sq.m, where in addition to the dining area, there is also a lounge with a large sofa and a sliding TV, while vast glass doors provide access goth to the spacious cockpit with free-standing furniture and to the starboard side walkway.

The flybridge is home to an al fresco dining area, sunbathing and lounging areas.
