} New Horizons for GPY

SANREMO, ITALY
There is a new port of call along the seaway lead-
ing to the French Riviera for the owners of Ferret-
ti Group yachts: Portosole at Sanremo. The inter-
nationally acclaimed marina is just a few nautical
miles from Menton and was chosen by GPY, the
Group’s official dealer on the Tyrrhenian coast, as
the venue for its fourth Open Days event.
The event took place on October 6th and 7th 2018
in the area near the administration tower building,
where guests were able to admire the Ferretti Yachts
450, the Ferretti Yachts 550, the Ferretti Yachts 670,
the Ferretti Yachts 780 and the Pershing 62, and take
up the opportunity of a sea trial or a visit on board.
It was also the occasion for GPY to officially open
its new premises in the port of Sanremo itself. The
elegant interiors of the new sales office match the
distinctively sophisticated design of the Pershing
and Ferretti Yachts brands, and will offer yacht
owners help and assistance thanks to the experi-
ence of its personnel, all sea enthusiasts who also
use their skills and reliability to help safeguard
the marine environment.
