The magnificent 99ft Ferretti Yachts 1000 is the first ever ‘wide body’ yacht from Ferretti. This gives her a full-beam owner’s suite forward on the main deck, as the side decks are above. And what a superbly spacious suite it is as a result. With its size, its configuration and its impeccable pedigree, the 1000 ticks all the boxes as a high-speed superyacht of the very highest calibre.
The 1000's pièce de résistance is undoubtedly her huge owner's suite, forward on the main deck, as it extends the entire width of the boat. This is because there are no side decks, they are above, which has the added bonus that there's nothing to interrupt the owner's view through those huge side windows. Family and guests are accommodated in 4 virtually identical double suites, with separate crew quarters for 5. Two different styles are available for the interior: 'Classic' with neutral shades, or a 'Contemporary' look in blues and greys.

The on-deck seating and lounging areas on this boat are simply superb. As well as the huge bathing platform 'beach club', and the aft deck with its lovely al fresco dining set-up, there's a massive top deck, plus a wonderful two-tier seating and lounging area on the foredeck. Inside the stern garage is space for a Sportjet 445 tender, a personal watercraft and two Seabobs.

The performance of the Ferretti Yachts 1000 benefits significantly from the light weight of its carbon fibre superstructure and hardtop. Standard power comes from twin 2217hp V16 MTUs which deliver speeds of 24 knots max and 20 knot cruising. A more powerful option is twin 2435hp MTUs, which add an extra 4 knots to both figures. Ferretti has always been renowned for its exceptionally low noise levels, and this new 99-footer promises to be one of their quietest ever.
