Ferretti unveils its new superyacht ultra-custom project

Ferretti's Custom Line 106'

Through its Custom Line brand, the Ferretti group offers a range of highly customisable superyachts. Its latest model the Custom Line 106' is a 38.13 m yacht with large outdoor and indoor spaces at the top of the range.

A custom and high-end range

Custom Line is a brand of the Italian Ferretti group launched in 1996. Specialized in flybridge superyachts over 30 m with large customization options, it offers two ranges: flat and semi-displacement. After a first 120-foot model, a second 106-foot model completes the "Planing" range. After the boat is launched at the Ferretti Group Superyacht shipyard in Ancona, it will be unveiled for the first time in June at the Venice Boat Show, before its official presentation in Cannes in September 2019.

The Custom Line 106' was designed by Francesco Paszkowski Design, in collaboration with the technical department of the Ferretti group and the product strategy department headed by engineer Piero Ferrari. While there are distinctive characteristics of the brand, the design also introduces new stylistic characteristics.

Its lines are refined and give pride of place to large, comfortable spaces. The idea is to abolish the borders between inside and outside, with a minimalist design and a floor area of 220 m2 and interconnected spaces.

A high-tech dashboard

On the rear, there is the transom system developed by Ferretti, the Dual Mode Transom System. The latter has been further optimised with two hatches that hide the cockpit access steps when sailing. When stopped, they disappear into the central part to access and exit the ship. But this system also has many advantages: a submerged tender garage (tender 505 Williams Jet and a jet ski for three people), a submersible swimming platform and a large beach club.

Comfortable exteriors

The front axle is even bigger than on the other models. There is a large comfortable lounge and a sunroom below with an area of 36 m2, as well as an additional garage for a 2.80 m tender and a 3-seater jet ski.

The 53 m2 flybridge can be accessed directly from the decks. The wheelhouse, protected by two large side windows and a hardtop with two skylights, houses the steering station. On the back, the large relaxation area can be shaded by biminis or awnings.

A spacious and bright main deck

Inside, the main deck is bathed in natural light thanks to the large glazing that covers almost the entire height of the superstructure. On request, the central window on the starboard side of the saloon can be equipped with an electric opening mechanism. Between the windows, there are the columns discovered on the 120-foot model that house the lighting, audio and air conditioning systems, adjustable with an iPad.

The main cabin is located forward with access from the starboard side and is 6.50 m wide. There are many storage spaces, two dressing rooms and a large bathroom with two side toilets and a central shower. On request, a panoramic terrace can be added.

The port side of the main deck provides access to the galley, crew quarters (a captain's cabin with a separate bathroom and shower and two crew cabins with a separate bathroom).

Four cabins on the lower deck

On the lower deck are four standard cabins: two VIP cabins in the middle of the ship and two cabins with twin beds in the bow. All have their own separate bathroom. The beds in the VIP cabins face the large hull windows that promise a superb view of the sea. As an option, a double bed can be installed in the cabins with separate beds.

23 or 26 knots

The Custom Line 106' receives two 16V MTU engines with a power of 2217 km/h and a maximum speed of 23 knots (preliminary data). Alternatively, it is possible to request two 16V MTU engines, with a speed of 2638 km/h and a maximum speed of 26 knots (preliminary data).

As standard, the yacht is equipped with electro-hydraulic stabilisers that operate both during navigation and at anchor. On request, gyroscopic stabilisers can also be installed for maximum wetting comfort.
