Itama 55 — Sardinia The Itama name carries weight among Italians who know their hulls. Built by the Itama yard within the Ferretti group, this 55 belongs to a line defined less by fashion than by the way it takes a sea state — deep-V, dry, composed at speed, the kind of open boat that shortens a crossing rather than merely surviving it. Launched in 2008, she completed a refit in 2023. Below, three cabins. Your BellaYacht advisor will confirm the exact configuration before you commit, so there's no guesswork about who sleeps where. The appeal here is the format itself. An Itama 55 is a yacht for the well-judged short charter: a long weekend out of a Sardinian marina, a run across to Corsica when the forecast opens up, lunch at anchor in water clear enough to count the chain links. Time on deck rather than time indoors — the layout keeps you outside, in the breeze and the shade, close to the water. She is run by a crew of two, a captain and a cook who also handles deck duties. It is a deliberately close-quarters arrangement: no formality, no distance, simply two professionals who know the anchorages, cook what the morning market offered, and read the wind before you have to ask about it. For couples or a small family wanting the Sardinian coast at the right pace, with an Italian hull that earned its reputation honestly, she makes a straightforward case.
