On a sunny, late spring morning Italian yard Custom Line, a member of the Ferretti Yachts Group, launched the first yacht in their 124’ Custom Line yacht model using the travel-lift system at the Ferretti Group facility in Ancona.
The 37.8m Custom Line 124 superyacht is the new flagship of the Custom Line planning luxury motor yacht fleet. According to the yard the moment that a bottle was broken over the bow keel of the hull, was particularly thrilling, as it symbolised the realisation of the engineering and design work, artisan production and painstaking care the shipyard took over every single detail of this model.
“We are very proud of our ‘new arrival’ and particularly excited about today, which marks the beginning of renewed, further growth for Custom Line”, commented Marco Segato, Custom Line Brand Manager. “A further two units of the 124’ have already been sold, and are currently being built at the Ancona facility, confirming the market’s positive response to this new model, which we will be presenting, as a world première, at the upcoming Festival de la Plaisance in Cannes
The Ferretti Custom Line 124’ motor yacht was designed by architect Gianni Zuccon from Studio Zuccon International Project, who dealt with both the internal and external layouts, working in association with the AYT, Advanced Yacht Technology, Ferretti Group’s naval research and design centre. The new launch features a deep blue hull with a white superstructure, with spacious areas inside and out, well-distributed between the main, lower, upper and sun decks of the yacht.
The exterior of the yacht features soaring, light, elegant lines, due to the installation of an extensive glazed surface in order to naturally light the interior. The upper deck is split between the helm station and lounge/dining area, set in a raised position in order to allow total onboard privacy. The model also features large outdoor areas, and the cockpit has a teak table for 10 to 12 guests. Owners can personalise the area by replacing the table with a lounge area, complete with sofas.
Her upper deck features a second open air luncheon area, where a spa pool and sundeck can be installed. The bow lounge area, complete with semi-circular sofa, is a true lounge over the sea, to which a number of sun pads have been added for sun lovers. Also for the interior of the superyacht, within the interior of the yacht, Studio Zuccon International Project incorporated spacious areas, including a salon measuring over 50 square metres, the master suite and, on the lower bridge, four large guest cabins.
In all, Ferretti Custom Line 124’ yacht can accommodate up to 10 guests, plus 6 crew members. The yacht can reach a top speed of 27 knots (preliminary data) with the largest MTU engine, 3510hp, and offers the comfort guaranteed by the Mitsubishi Anti Rolling Gyro system, which reduces rolling by over 50%. The extensive range of personalised solutions that the yard is able to offer makes it possible to alter the use of some of the areas, according to the owner’s requests. For example, a fitness area can be installed in place of one of the cabins, or a chrome therapy system in the heads, for a cruise centred on well being.
