Powerful beauty, aggressive charm, elegance and luxury blended together in an unprecedented formula: some yachts simply leave you breathless with the feeling of having just witnessed the beginning of a new era and a new standard in pleasure yachting.
These are engineering and design endeavors that only a leading boat builder like Ferretti Yachts can provide, thanks to a fantastic team of engineers, designers and professionals who carry on the glorious Made in Italy tradition.
The Ferretti Yachts 850 is yet another extraordinary masterpiece in the almost 50-year history of a brand that has conquered the international markets with its large and wide-ranging fleet, which currently includes 8 models between 45 and 96 feet in length.
The new model - the result of intense collaboration between Ferretti Group’s Product Strategy Committee, Studio Zuccon International Project for the exterior design, and the Group's Engineering Department responsible for the naval and technical engineering and fitting out of the interior - will be built in the Cattolica shipyard and make its official public debut early in September this year.
“The Ferretti Yachts 850 is one of two brand new models that Ferretti Yachts is presenting in 2016, the second being the new 45-footer. Both yachts will be previewed over the summer before their worldwide launch at the Cannes boat show," announced Ferretti Group’s Chief Commercial Officer Stefano De Vivo during the official presentation.
“The Ferretti Yacht 850 plays a key role in the evolution of our range. It features captivating design and bold performance, but also seductive interiors, comparable to those one would find in a sumptuous loft apartment.
We are proud to be presenting a yacht that will leave luxury boating enthusiasts breathless as soon as they step aboard.”
EXTERIOR DESIGN
The waterlines is 85.4 feet (26 meters) LOA with a construction length below 24 meters (LH 78.8 feet), thereby falling within the classification category for recreational boats.
The Ferretti Yachts 850 is immediately striking for its bold profile, characterized by sharp angles that give it a strong and aggressive personality. The two hull windows with integrated portholes are very large and maximize the entrance of natural light and provide magnificent views from the inside.
The main deck enhances the yacht's dynamic personality, thanks to a single glazed window that cuts across the entire superstructure.
The profile is completed by the flybridge with its optional fore-and-aft hard top over the raised pilothouse and roll bar in Vulcan Grey to contrast with the ivory white of the hull and superstructure.
AFT AREA:
The aft area can be enjoyed to the full thanks to an innovative mechanism to open and fold down the transom door, which becomes a beach area that can also be lowered under the water. Not only does this provide guests with a large submersible platform, it also makes tender operations easier for the crew (the garage can fit up to a William 385). Just like on a maxi yacht, there is exterior access to the engine room via a portside door.
MAIN DECK INTERIOR:
Passing through the glazed sliding door, an open space including a salon and a dining area extends for over 10 meters.
The living style is in line with the latest developments in residential architecture, characterized by sober minimalism and relaxing simplicity, the space is pervaded by a sense of contemporary, metropolitan elegance.
The galley comes in two possible layouts.
The raised pilothouse can be reached by the captain and crew directly from their own cabins, without having to walk through the main salon.
LOWER DECK
Below deck the Ferretti Yacht 850 offers generous spaces for owners and guests.
The airy master stateroom was designed in cooperation with Minotti in the style of the main deck salon. Besides the central double bed, it features a study/office area.
The lower deck also hosts two spacious VIP double cabins, and a fourth starboard cabin is fitted with twin beds. All the guest cabins have en-suite bathrooms and separate shower.
The crew quarters are located in the extreme bow and include two cabins with bunk beds and private bathroom.
EXTERNAL FORWARD AREA
There is a second spacious outdoor lounge area on the foredeck for relaxing featuring a large central sunpad, seating and a dinette with height-adustable table.
Upon request, the area can be sheltered with umbrellas and curtains to increase privacy and comfort.
ENGINES AND PERFORMANCE
The Ferretti Yachts 850 will be equipped with MAN engines and owners will be able to choose between two options: twin V12 1800 mhp engines for a cruising speed of 26 knots and a maximum speed of 29 knots, or more powerful twin V12 1900 mhp engines for a cruising speed of 27 knots and a maximum speed of 31 knots (preliminary data).
To personalize the yacht to owners’ specific needs both when cruising and at anchor, Seakeeper active gyro stabilizers or Zero Speed hydraulic stabilizing fins can also be installed upon request.
