Custom Line’s Flagship 50m Yacht ASANTE Hits the Water

50m motor yacht ASANTE was launched from the Ferretti Group Superyacht Yard in Ancona on the 8th of June, celebrated with a private ceremony. ASANTE’s Owner and their family were in attendance, alongside the shipyard’s top management, employees, and their families. 

Alberto Galassi, CEO of Ferretti Group, commented: ‘A 50-metre dream. This is the new Custom Line 50, confirming the brand’s state of grace at both design and production level. Cutting-edge research and innovation, in terms of both style and materials, comes together in the use of aluminium, which also offers significant performance and fuel consumption benefits.’

This entirely aluminium yacht falls in the metal yacht segment under 500GT, featuring a displacement hull and a beam of 9.60m. ASANTE is the result of a harmonious collaboration between the Product Strategy Department, led by Piero Ferrari, and the Ferretti Group Superyachts Division Engineering team. 

Filippo Salvetti oversaw her exterior styling, whilst her made-to-measure interiors were penned by ACPV ARCHITECTS Antonio Citterio Patricia Viel. 

She features a four deck layout, her entire design centred around the master suite forward on the upper deck. The sensational Owner’s stateroom, which is surrounded by windows that offer unparalleled 180 degree views, provides direct access to a private terrace in the bow. This stunning oasis features a spacious and private lounge area, complete with sunpads. 

12 guests, plus nine crew members, can be accommodated onboard ASANTE, with the remaining guest cabins configured as four VIPs on the lower deck.

ASANTE’s volumes and layout have been meticulously crafted to offer those onboard a unique cruising experience, optimised for livability and comfort. A beautiful blend of generous convivial areas, wellbeing spaces close to the water, and private havens for her Owner characterise her design. 

Galassi concluded: ‘The new flagship, which opens up a new market segment for Custom line, is a vessel bathed in light and water born out of extraordinarily in-depth and effective studies into the yacht’s volumes and spaces.’

All guest areas, in particular the lounges on the main and upper decks, feature floor-to-ceiling windows and reflective surfaces that connect the interiors to the exteriors. Not only does this enhance the sense of connection to the surroundings, it also creates seamless spatial and visual continuity. 

A standout feature of ASANTE is her generous beach club, which has direct access to the aft outdoor area on the main deck. These two exterior spaces elevate the feeling of immersion in the surrounding marine environment, and are integrated beautifully by a rectangular pool in the stern. 

ASANTE will make her global debut in September, at the Monaco Yacht Show 2024.
