The first all-aluminium pleasure vessel by Custom Line has been launched at the Ferretti Group Superyacht Yard in Ancona.
The new 50 metre made-to-measure alloy line flagship, Custom Line 50 M/Y Asante is the first aluminium yacht under 500GT from the brand.
“A 50-metre dream. This is the new Customer Line 50, confirming the brand’s state of grace at both design and production level,” said Ferretti Group CEO Alberto Galassi.
“Cutting-edge research and innovation, in terms of both style and materials, comes together in the use of aluminium, which also offers significant performance and fuel consumption benefits.”
He added: “The new flagship, which opens up a new market segment for Custom Line, is a vessel bathed in light and water born out of extraordinarily in-depth and effective studies into the yacht’s volumes and spaces.”
The new Custom Line 50 is designed and built entirely from aluminium.
Collaboration
The yacht has a displacement hull under 499GT, a length of 49.94m and a beam of 9.6m, and is the result of collaboration between the product strategy department led by Piero Ferrari and the Ferretti Group Superyachts Division engineering team.
The exterior styling is by Filippo Salvetti, while ACPV Architects Antonio Citterio Patricia Viel designed the made-to-measure interiors.
Brokerage house Performance Boats USA played a key role as the owner’s representative.
The yacht has four decks, with a layout design centred around the master suite forward on the upper deck.
The owner’s stateroom has windows that offer a 180 degree view and provide direct access to a private terrace in the bow, featuring a lounge area with sunpad.
The superyacht has four more VIP cabins on the lower deck, accommodating up to 12 guests and nine crew.
Custom Line 50 M/Y Asante will make her world debut at the Monaco Yacht Show 2024.
