Ferretti Group’s display at this year’s Genoa International Boat Show (September 16-21) will include the brand-new Riva 68’ Diable, a model recently launched at the brand’s iconic shipyard in Sarnico on Lake Iseo, and a Pershing 6X, which is expected to reach 48 knots. The world premieres of both models will be held at the previous week’s Cannes Yachting Festival (September 7-12).
The 68’ Diable has a top speed of 40 knots with the option of twin MAN V12 1,650mhp engines and was designed by Mauro Micheli, co-founder of Officina Italiana Design, with Ferretti Group. It features a built-in hard top with sunroof, while the lower deck includes a galley and dinette, full-beam master suite midships, twin cabin to port and VIP forward.
The Pershing 6X is expected to have a top speed of 48 knots and a cruising speed of 42 with a pair of 1,550mhp MAN V12 engines. Joining the 5X, 7X, 8X and 9X, the 6X is the range’s second-smallest model and has an overall length of 18.94m (62 ft) and a beam of 4.8m (16ft).
Other Ferretti Group models on display at Genoa will include the Ferretti Yachts 500 and Ferretti Yachts 670 flybridge yachts, the Custom Line 106’ and the 48wallytender X, the outboard version of the 48wallytender.
