Custom Line Navetta 28 — Ferretti's take on the slow-cruising motor yacht Launched in 2018, this Navetta 28 belongs to the displacement-minded side of the Ferretti Group's Custom Line range — a yacht conceived for people who would rather arrive rested than arrive first. The lines borrow from classic navetta proportions without turning nostalgic, and the hull holds its composure across a wide spread of sea states, which matters more than top speed once you are covering the run between Sardinia and the Tuscan coast. At 28.43 metres with a 7.3-metre beam, she carries real volume. The wide-body configuration puts that beam to work: three decks, headroom comfortably above two metres throughout, and generous open areas both aft and forward — a genuinely difficult balance to strike in this size bracket, and one of the reasons the Navetta 28 reads as a larger yacht than her length suggests. That volume translates directly into how a day unfolds on board. Morning coffee forward, away from the main flow of the yacht; lunch in the shade aft with the passerelle down and the tender coming and going; evenings on an upper deck that stays open to the breeze long after the sun has dropped behind the headland. Nothing feels borrowed from another space. Her cruising grounds suit her temperament: the Maddalena archipelago and the Corsican south, the Tuscan islands, and the Cinque Terre, where the anchorages reward a yacht that moves quietly and sits well at anchor. She charters with a professional crew, discreet in the way experienced Mediterranean crews learn to be — present when needed, invisible otherwise, and fluent in the practicalities of the coastline you have chosen.
