DESTINY

Ferretti Yachts 780 — 80 feet of Italian motor yachting, from Florida to the Bahamas The Ferretti 780 is one of those hulls that flatters an owner and a charter guest equally: a flybridge motor yacht built around a deep-V hull, which is what allows her to hold a comfortable line across the Gulf Stream rather than simply look good at the dock. This example completed a refit in 2022, and the work shows in the finishes and onboard technology. Her cruising grounds tell you what she's built for — South Florida and the Keys, the Bahamas, and further afield the Virgin Islands, both the Leewards and the Windwards, and the Canaries. Short hops between sandbars or a longer island-to-island itinerary: the layout supports both. Living aboard Ferretti's signature move on this size of yacht is glass, and here floor-to-ceiling windows pull the seascape straight into the main salon. Inside, fine woods, soft fabrics and polished detailing frame a lounge and a formal dining area, with a Bluetooth sound system throughout. The flybridge is where most days will end up. It carries a hot tub, a wet bar and generous seating under open sky — the natural gathering point when the light goes gold. The aft deck handles al fresco dining, the foredeck offers sun pads for the quiet hours, and expansive teak decking ties the exterior spaces together. Accommodation Four cabins host eight guests. The owner's cabin is the standout, with panoramic windows and proper storage. A further cabin is fitted with a queen-size bed, and two cabins have twin beds. Each has its own en-suite and individual climate control. Detailed bed configuration on request. Service A professional crew runs the yacht, handling navigation, galley and guest service with the discretion that a yacht of this size makes possible — attentive without ever being in the way.
