PROTAGONIST / FORT LAUDERDALE
Ferretti Group lit up the 59th Fort Lauderdale International
Boat Show from 31 October to 4 November 2018
with a magnificent fleet of no fewer than 18 vessels, including
two that were making their American debuts:
Pershing 9X, a maxi coupé that boasts ground-breaking design
and performance, and Ferretti Yachts 670,
the first of which has already been sold to an American owner.
and Navetta 42. The latter is the breathtaking new Custom
Line flagship and the fifth one to be made found a buyer in
the United States. Then there were the Riva 110’ Dolcevita
and Riva 100’ Corsaro, which are also very popular with
American customers, as the sales figures show.
Following growth of more than 9% compared to 2017, the
Americas now account for 36% of the Ferretti Group mar-
ket. These remarkable results are largely thanks to hugely
successful sales in Florida and the North East, where Allied
Marine operates. The well-established American yacht bro-
kerage company is an exclusive Ferretti Group dealer and
it is based in the city of Fort Lauderdale itself.
