The result is a product designed from a synthesis of 3 main points: innovation, design and functionality. Ferretti 800 features generous interior spaces and a layout which is characteristic of larger yachts, combined with a winning external line, enriched by the use of colour, in which large glazed surfaces are a characterising element of the external design, guaranteeing exceptional lighting inside, too.
The interior spaces of Ferretti 800 are innovative and give enhance to liveability of the yacht, conceived for an owner who spend time on boar together with family and friends. The area destined for the crew has been moved to the extreme bow, making it possible to optimise the space available to owner and guests, and increase privacy.
Ferretti 800 mounts two MTU M93 1823 mhp or, upon request, two MTU M94 1948 mhp. Whit this last motorization and the hard top version, Ferretti 800 can reach a cruising speed of 27,5 and maximum speed of 32 knots.
PERSHING 50.1
Contemporary reinterpretation of Pershing 50’ by yacht designer Fulvio De Simoni in collaboration with AYT – Advanced Yacht Technology and the team of architects and designers at Centro Stile, the new Pershing 50.1 is an expression of the Next Generation which, even with her decidedly sporty features, has interiors which live up to the expectations of those who already know the style and the elegance of the brand.
It is no coincidence that this yacht has been the best selling model of the Pershing fleet for years and continues to receive acclaim from experts in the sector. The new version combines great character with a high performance and excellent on-board living conditions. The below deck area is very comfortable and is exemplified by the specific attention to detail and choice of materials, such as the primary use of oak and the carpet for the flooring of the cabin and the dinette. In particular, the area occupied by the dinette features new varnished finishes which give the interiors a contemporary mark. Similarly, matt finishes have been chosen to replace the previous glossy tones in the heads.
With innovative aerodynamics and extraordinary elegance, Pershing 50.1 is the smallest model in the range with Arneson surface transmissions which, when combined with twin 900hp MAN diesel engines, can reach a top speed of 46 knots. Moreover, the axis line version – available in white and pearl – is certainly a competitive variation of content for this segment, and allows owners to cruise at a speed of up to 37 knots. Thus, Pershing 50.1 stands out for her above average speed as well as the optimization of consumption and range.

Navetta 26 Crescendo, a natural development of the previous maxi-yacht in the semi-displacement line, is the result of the close working relationship between Studio Zuccon International Project, the Ferretti Group’s AYT – Advanced Yacht Technology and the team of architects and designers at the Group’s Centro Stile.
Specially designed for those owners who prefer “slow motion” as it were, a leisurely cruise in complete silence and total comfort, this new yacht continues with the evolution of the “compact” semi-displacement concept. Navetta 26 Crescendo, 26 meters in length and almost 7 in width, features classical lines in which innovative solutions of both a formal and functional nature have been developed in order to increase on-board space, put it to even better use, and make it more comfortable.

A slender and sleek bow, impressive volumes and open spaces overlooking the sea are the characteristics of “BLUE EYES”, a mega yacht made of steel and aluminum, a product of the collaboration between the CRN and the Zuccon International Project who worked on the exterior and Studio Fabrizio Smania Spa who worked on the design of the interiors. The engine includes 2 Caterpillar 3512B to navigate the vessel at a cruising speed of 14 knots.
The stern on the lower deck is completely new and makes part of an area that can be set up as a beach club. The stern hatch transforms into a large beach close to the sea, equipped with comfortable sun beds and used as a solarium. At the back is a spacious area where guests can relax, while enjoying the proximity of the sea as they sit on comfortable sofas in the shade. The distinctive feature of this boat is the balcony of the ship owner’s suite, a platform that overlooks the sea, thanks to the hatch that folds at 90 degrees forming a balcony. Being a strength of the CRN mega yacht, the terrace is among the most requested items of customization requested by the ship owners. A new feature that has already become a tradition.
The following models will also be on display at the boat show: Dolphin 44’, sun top version of Dolphin 54’, Dolphin 64’ Fly and Long Range 23 produced by Mochi Craft; Ferretti 530, Ferretti 570 and Ferretti 830; Pershing 64’, Rivarama, Rivale, 56’ SportRiva and 68’ Ego Super produced by Riva; and Itama Forty, Fifty and FiftyFive.
