New Ferretti 450 will be certainly one of the most visited boats at next Cannes Yachting Festival, where she’ll make her debut in the world of big boat shows. 14.2 metres long, she is the “small” model of Ferretti’s range and she is destined to become a reference point for the whole market. Meanwhile, you can enjoy her launch in a glamorous Cesenatico through the video below.
“Ferretti Yachts 450 will be our business card, she is the model which will let shipowners enter the exclusive world of Ferretti Yachts”  – said Stefano de Vivo, Chief Commercial Officer of the group. ” She’s a great dream generator, ready to win the challenges of the market thanks to a very competitive proposal, which will conquer different kinds of owners. She will be appreciated by both young and more experienced shipowners. Everyone will find in our 45-foot-boat the ideal product to start, continue o resume his own “climb to the sea”. We’re really proud of this project and we’re looking forward to present Ferretti Yachts 450 next summer”.
The new flybridge is the result of the collaboration between the Product Strategic Committe and Engineering Department of Ferretti Group – as regards the technical and naval project – and Zuccon International Project Studio, in charge of the exterior and interior design project. The boat is built in the new establishment of Forlì, inaugurated at the beginning of the year.
Ferretti Yachts 450 will have a couple of Cummins propellers, to choose between a couple of QSB 6.7 425 Mhp engines or two QSB 6.7 480 MHp ones. The first option will ensure a maximum speed of 30 knots and a cruising one of 25, while the stronger Cummins will push up to 31.5 knots (cruising speed: 27 kn). Moreover, the new yacht can be equipped with a practical joystick system for easier manoeuvring and mooring operations.
