Established in 2016 at the heart of <a data-gid="gid://syiq/Company/112" href="#managed-by-system" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank" title="Custom Line (Company)">Custom Line</a>’s headquarters in Ancona, the <a data-gid="gid://syiq/Company/112" href="#managed-by-system" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank" title="Custom Line (Company)">Custom Line</a> Atelier is a unique feather in the Italian shipyard’s bow. Born from the ambition of synchronising all of the shipyard’s projects and the unique <a data-gid="gid://syiq/Company/112" href="#managed-by-system" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank" title="Custom Line (Company)">Custom Line</a> finish, with the ambitions of owners and owners representatives, the Atelier has flourished into a key component of the yard’s international branding. &nbsp;<img src="https://photo-assets.superyachttimes.com/photo/295668/image/large-5de36faee4f9fde1bd5f586447aef150.jpg" data-gid="gid://syiq/Photo/295668">Six designers make up the Atelier, with two naval architects and four designers, three interior and one product who specialises in furniture design, and the team acts as a multifaceted support for both the internal teams and those of the clients. We sat down with two of the team to find out how the Atelier works alongside the shipyard, owners and external designers, and how their work enables a streamlined process, a reduction in project timelines and ensures an excellent finish for all of <a data-gid="gid://syiq/Company/112" href="#managed-by-system" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank" title="Custom Line (Company)">Custom Line</a> yachts.<img src="https://photo-assets.superyachttimes.com/photo/295669/image/large-9d57c6242bd53d89c7c4e41b125593d0.jpg" data-gid="gid://syiq/Photo/295669">A customised experienceWorking alongside the sales and marketing departments in Ancona, the Atelier is an asset to those teams, allowing them to flexibly and efficiently prepare customisations for series designs in-house. While many of the <a data-gid="gid://syiq/Company/112" href="#managed-by-system" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank" title="Custom Line (Company)">Custom Line</a> yachts are designed by external designers, such as long-time design partners <a data-gid="gid://syiq/Company/586" href="#managed-by-system" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank" title="Francesco Paszkowski (Company)">Francesco Paszkowski</a>, <a data-gid="gid://syiq/Company/5547" href="#managed-by-system" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank" title="Filippo Salvetti (Company)">Filippo Salvetti</a> and <a data-gid="gid://syiq/Company/5082" href="#managed-by-system" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank" title="Antonio Citterio Patricia Viel (Company)">Antonio Citterio Patricia Viel</a>, the Atelier works alongside the design studio, assisting with finishing and customisations. As <a data-gid="gid://syiq/Company/112" href="#managed-by-system" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank" title="Custom Line (Company)">Custom Line</a> constructs series yachts, every model features a pre-designed interior concept, which can be tailored to the owner’s wishes. <img src="https://photo-assets.superyachttimes.com/photo/288340/image/large-543744c9ef841873c1fb19a966058ce0.jpg" data-gid="gid://syiq/Photo/288340">Clients are able to visit the shipyard, often viewing in-build yachts to gain an understanding of the finish and aesthetic, and then work alongside the Atelier team to put their own touches on their project. This is particularly important when it comes to interior materials, finishes and even layout, as the Atelier retains an archive and inventory of viable and tested materials for the owners to choose from, streamlining the selection process, without the need to involve the original designer.“The Atelier is involved from the very beginning, working alongside the owner’s team to define the bespoke choices, from stateroom and en suite layout to material composition. We are focused on the future use of the vessel and work hard to understand how the owner will use his vessel, as this informs the material selection process and ensures that the vessel is tailored to its purpose.”<img src="https://photo-assets.superyachttimes.com/photo/288338/image/large-e75dd69d79a3b479543808fa9f503e05.jpg" data-gid="gid://syiq/Photo/288338">Involvement from this early phase allows the Atelier to finalise the interior, and to ensure that all the materials and finishes are available the moment the yacht hits the outfitting phase. This process, however, can take place with, or without a final client, and if owners become involved during the outfitting phase, the Atelier is able to refine the possible choices and guide the owner to ensure that the expected delivery date is met. They do this by creating a portfolio of materials and finishing choices for each stage of construction, so no matter when an owner acquires the vessel, the Atelier is able to provide levels of customisation.The Atelier’s intimate knowledge of the C<a data-gid="gid://syiq/Company/112" href="#managed-by-system" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank" title="Custom Line (Company)">ustom Line</a> portfolio and close daily involvement with the shipyard is a huge advantage to the yard itself, beyond the design phase alone. Daily visits to the shipyard allow the Atelier team to help project manage the outfitting of the yachts, check in with subcontractors and artisans and ensure that the build process is progressing to the timeline. <img src="https://photo-assets.superyachttimes.com/photo/295670/image/large-975fe359a99829fbeb4f443547e78854.jpg" data-gid="gid://syiq/Photo/295670">In-house designWhile <a data-gid="gid://syiq/Company/112" href="#managed-by-system" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank" title="Custom Line (Company)">Custom Line</a> is known for its design collaborations, the shipyard also looks to the expertise of its Atelier for the design of new superyacht series. Working alongside the commercial department, the Atelier first looks to understand that market that the new series is targeting – for example Asia, Europe or America. This first step allows them to study the success of previous models in that region before moving forward with specific design choices and use that as a guideline for the potential features of the new concept.&nbsp;“When we start this process, before a yacht has been sold, we work to create an initial mood board for the vessel. Those initial colours, materials and structural features can help the commercial team to gauge the success of a concept, before we move through to the final design phases.”<img src="https://photo-assets.superyachttimes.com/photo/208881/image/large-47d2773356a69c503c4a7da37ea42494.jpg" data-gid="gid://syiq/Photo/208881">One of the great successes of <a data-gid="gid://syiq/Company/112" href="#managed-by-system" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank" title="Custom Line (Company)">Custom Line</a> is that the shipyard has many dedicated, repeat clients, who scale up their yachts in size within the shipyard’s range. This enables the sales department to collaborate with existing clients on new yacht concepts, and to refine a design with the Atelier before finalisation.&nbsp;This collaboration is deeply rooted in the shipyard’s success and the Atelier will even take clients to design shows such as those in Milan and Paris, to understand how trends are impacting the design choices of the future.&nbsp;Custom Line Navetta 38 and Custom Line 140'Two of the Atelier’s most recent projects have been the design and development of the Custom Line Navetta 38, and the brand's planing line flagship <a data-gid="gid://syiq/Company/112" href="#managed-by-system" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank" title="Custom Line (Company)">Custom Line</a> 140'. These two vessels represent the epitome of the Custom Line Atelier’s capabilities.&nbsp;“We are currently working very closely alongside <a data-gid="gid://syiq/Company/5082" href="#managed-by-system" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank" title="Antonio Citterio Patricia Viel (Company)">ACPV Architects Antonio Citterio and Patricia Viel</a> for the design of the Custom Line Navetta 38. The Atelier is the very best link between the shipyard and the studio, because we are able to disseminate information from the various subcontractors, with whom we have very close relationships, to the studio. This allows us to ensure that all the questions that reach the designer are for the designer, and this streamlines the workflow and saves the design studio a huge amount of time.” <img src="https://photo-assets.superyachttimes.com/photo/208876/image/large-289b57ab38d37c5e1e2b2b42a415dc33.jpg" data-gid="gid://syiq/Photo/208876">These two new models represent the next generation of <a data-gid="gid://syiq/Company/112" href="#managed-by-system" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank" title="Custom Line (Company)">Custom Line</a> yachts, and the Atelier and shipyard have worked hard to create a material selection that represents the changing. Natural materials are taking the limelight in both of the models, and this has led to a lot of research and development within the Atelier to ensure that the materials are robust and practical as well as beautiful.&nbsp;Like with owners, the material selection refined by the shipyard and Atelier is then also presented to the designers, who in turn are able to choose from a portfolio of materials. These have all been vetted from source to delivery by the shipyard, and this is yet another way in which the Atelier aids the shipyard and ensures that projects can be completed on time and to an incredibly fine finish.&nbsp;To find out more about the Custom Line Atelier and the shipyard’s full range of yachts, head to the website now, or reach out to the team;

47m Sanlorenzo explorer yacht Para Bellum launched in Italy

The 47-metre Sanlorenzo explorer yacht Para Bellum has launched and made her long anticipated debut

In July 2022, <a data-gid="gid://syiq/Company/112" href="#managed-by-system" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank" title="Custom Line (Company)">Custom Line</a> unveiled its latest superyacht and flagship, the 49.9-metre <a data-gid="gid://syiq/Company/112" href="#managed-by-system" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank" title="Custom Line (Company)">Custom Line</a> Navetta 50, the biggest ever. The first hull is under construction at the <a data-gid="gid://syiq/Company/4876" href="#managed-by-system" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank" title="Ferretti Group (Company)">Ferretti Group</a> Superyacht Yard in Ancona (with the second hull due to start later this year) and which will make her eagerly awaited début in 2024, in the sub-500 GT aluminium yachting market segment. In this special context we met the minds behind the project to find out why she was developed, the inspiration behind her design and the expectations for the new hull.<img src="https://photo-assets.superyachttimes.com/photo/235052/image/large-b68617e398a94fecacf3e6d9b92b7849.jpg" data-gid="gid://syiq/Photo/235052">Partnering once again with Italian designers <a data-gid="gid://syiq/Company/5547" href="#managed-by-system" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank" title="Filippo Salvetti (Company)">Filippo Salvetti</a> for the exterior and <a data-gid="gid://syiq/Company/5082" href="#managed-by-system" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank" title="Antonio Citterio Patricia Viel (Company)">ACPV Architects</a> Antonio Citterio and Patricia Viel for the interior architecture and decoration, the new aluminium superyacht aligns beautifully with the entire <a data-gid="gid://syiq/Company/112" href="#managed-by-system" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank" title="Custom Line (Company)">Custom Line</a> Navetta line. This new yacht however, was born from a desire to create a new level of privacy for the owner, and to design a yacht that combines luxury, comfort and efficiency.<img src="https://photo-assets.superyachttimes.com/photo/274564/image/large-ccd8ff39ae08a6898608bb3c5172b242.jpg" data-gid="gid://syiq/Photo/274564">“Designed entirely in aluminium, with a displacement hull under 500 GT, the new <a data-gid="gid://syiq/Company/112" href="#managed-by-system" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank" title="Custom Line (Company)">Custom Line</a> Navetta 50 marks a new chapter in the brand’s evolution.

By offering 50 metre superyachts, <a data-gid="gid://syiq/Company/112" href="#managed-by-system" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank" title="Custom Line (Company)">Custom Line</a> embodies this trend perfectly” comments Stefano de Vivo, CCO of Ferretti Group. “With the new <a data-gid="gid://syiq/Company/112" href="#managed-by-system" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank" title="Custom Line (Company)">Custom Line</a> Navetta 50, our goal is to offer increasingly large and sophisticated internal and external spaces that maximise on-board liveability and guarantee the owner’s privacy and well-being, at the same time enhancing contact with the sea, combining the elegant intimacy of private space with the nautical experience”.<img src="https://photo-assets.superyachttimes.com/photo/235055/image/large-d1de3cacf138483d95846ded7612b3e0.jpg" data-gid="gid://syiq/Photo/235055"><a data-gid="gid://syiq/Company/4876" href="#managed-by-system" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank" title="Ferretti Group (Company)">Filippo Salvetti</a> explained, “With the focus on privacy for the owner, we decided to dedicate the fore area of the upper deck for the owner’s exclusive use, and the <a data-gid="gid://syiq/Company/4876" href="#managed-by-system" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank" title="Ferretti Group (Company)">Ferretti Group</a> engineering department worked closely with us to develop a yacht that would meet these requirements.”As Salvetti describes above, the <a data-gid="gid://syiq/Company/112" href="#managed-by-system" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank" title="Custom Line (Company)">Custom Line</a> Navetta 50 features an expansive owner’s suite on the upper deck which is almost unheard of within the under-500 GT segment. The spacious suite is surrounded by floor-to-ceiling windows that offer a 180-degree view and provide direct access to a large private terrace in the bow, complete with sunset solarium. <img src="https://photo-assets.superyachttimes.com/photo/235056/image/large-a91cbd2d7e169303d6a1ac222ad22fac.jpg" data-gid="gid://syiq/Photo/235056">One of the superyacht’s top features, the master suite is one of the ways that the Custom Line Navetta 50 stands out from the rest of <a data-gid="gid://syiq/Company/112" href="#managed-by-system" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank" title="Custom Line (Company)">Custom Line</a> yachts. Alvise Narduzzi, <a data-gid="gid://syiq/Company/112" href="#managed-by-system" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank" title="Custom Line (Company)">Custom Line&nbsp;</a>Project Manager, explained, “It is an area of absolute privacy for those who want to enjoy this space in total relaxation. Whether you are on the sun deck or on the main deck, there is no way to see this private area and it therefore ensures total privacy for the owner. This is unlike anything we have created before with the <a data-gid="gid://syiq/Company/112" href="#managed-by-system" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank" title="Custom Line (Company)">Custom Line</a> Navetta. This is an enormous plus, even compared to competitors who have maintained a traditional layout, that continues to envisage the owner's stateroom in the bow area of the main deck, protected by the geometries of the hull, with no private outlets to the outside.” <img src="https://photo-assets.superyachttimes.com/photo/235060/image/large-478081a8aa680531183133db10821f9b.jpg" data-gid="gid://syiq/Photo/235060">This interconnection between interiors and exteriors is, in fact, the other distinctive feature of <a data-gid="gid://syiq/Company/112" href="#managed-by-system" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank" title="Custom Line (Company)">Custom Line</a> Navetta 50. Replicated in all the guest areas and particularly the lounges on the main and upper decks, the continuous flow between interior and exterior was a main parameter when designing the superyacht. By employing floor-to-ceiling windows the interiors have been filled with light, and the team at <a data-gid="gid://syiq/Company/5082" href="#managed-by-system" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank" title="Antonio Citterio Patricia Viel (Company)">ACPV Architects</a> have enhanced their impact with the use of reflective surfaces, natural forms and a bright interior aesthetic.<img src="https://photo-assets.superyachttimes.com/photo/235057/image/large-80371d55069befd1a038cfaa807f11db.jpg" data-gid="gid://syiq/Photo/235057">Patricia Viel explained, “The expansive windows on the main and upper deck and the height of the ceilings throughout this yacht amplify the impact of the interior styling and create an equilibrium and proportion that give guests onboard the sense of being aboard a much larger vessel. The windows also enhance the transparency and fluidity of the interior and create spatial connections between the interior and exterior spaces.”<img src="https://photo-assets.superyachttimes.com/photo/274566/image/large-abbc9d18a53123d7d963d6695190ba74.jpg" data-gid="gid://syiq/Photo/274566">The yacht’s surroundings were a key influence to her interior design and you can see its impact in the rounded surfaces and organic forms that flow throughout the superyacht. Described by Custom Line as a ‘elegant and refined yacht’, the design team has worked, not only on her design, but also on the way it feels to step onboard her. <img src="https://photo-assets.superyachttimes.com/photo/235058/image/large-72807e81b39c9c5f73c7c1676fe4f323.jpg" data-gid="gid://syiq/Photo/235058">Focusing intensely on the acoustics, with the goal of creating a silent onboard experience, the team has worked closely with the <a data-gid="gid://syiq/Company/4876" href="#managed-by-system" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank" title="Ferretti Group (Company)">Ferretti Group</a> engineering department to make sure that those who live the yacht's spaces, can always feel in absolute comfort. This has been a major consideration when completing the interior design and Patricia Viel explained that a limited selection of materials has been chosen so as not to overwhelm the owner and their guests.<img src="https://photo-assets.superyachttimes.com/photo/274567/image/large-273bd20b9fb81296008ad468c6b8e421.jpg" data-gid="gid://syiq/Photo/274567">“For us, materiality is related closely to tactility, we have refined the material selection so as not to distract the user from the experience of being onboard.

Alvise Narduzzi explained, “The proposal to have very large outdoor spaces such as the aft area, or main deck cockpit, or beach club area comes directly from the management. In addition to the considerable size of these areas, there is also the structural presence of the rectangular aft pool, which distinguishes the <a data-gid="gid://syiq/Company/112" href="#managed-by-system" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank" title="Custom Line (Company)">Custom Line</a> Navetta 50 from any other Ferretti Group hull, as no other design has ever had such a large aft area, free in configuration with sofas or alternative solutions at the discretion of the personal taste of those who live the spaces.”<img src="https://photo-assets.superyachttimes.com/photo/235054/image/large-4b5d037c4b51ac3a662d96b9c61144b2.jpg" data-gid="gid://syiq/Photo/235054">The aft of the main deck is home to a large pool, with sunpads and a dining area, and the yacht also has a spacious lower deck beach club at the water’s edge.

Custom Line Navetta 30 motor yacht Valore launched

<a data-gid="gid://syiq/Company/112" href="#managed-by-system" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank" title="Custom Line Spa (Company)">Custom Line</a> pulled the wraps off an all-new model: the <a data-gid="gid://syiq/Company/112" href="#managed-by-system" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank" title="Custom Line Spa (Company)">Custom Line</a> Navetta 50 project. At 49.9-metres in length, the Navetta 50 is the new flagship of <a data-gid="gid://syiq/Company/112" href="#managed-by-system" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank" title="Custom Line Spa (Company)">Custom Line</a>’s highly successful Navetta displacement line and will begin construction later this year.<img src="https://photo-assets.superyachttimes.com/photo/235052/image/large-b68617e398a94fecacf3e6d9b92b7849.jpg" data-gid="gid://syiq/Photo/235052">The Navetta 50 will be the first unit from <a data-gid="gid://syiq/Company/112" href="#managed-by-system" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank" title="Custom Line Spa (Company)">Custom Line</a> to be constructed out of aluminium, instead of the traditional GRP that <a data-gid="gid://syiq/Company/112" href="#managed-by-system" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank" title="Custom Line Spa (Company)">Custom Line</a> is known for. The design of this 50-metre variant pivots around the bow and the owner’s area. <img src="https://photo-assets.superyachttimes.com/photo/235053/image/large-7d6fb06f9a53d055df1e3c910a73614e.jpg" data-gid="gid://syiq/Photo/235053">Rather than following the more traditional general arrangement with the owner’s area on the main deck, <a data-gid="gid://syiq/Company/112" href="#managed-by-system" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank" title="Custom Line Spa (Company)">Custom Line</a> has moved the master suite to the bow of the upper deck, providing even more privacy and a forward-facing stateroom. <img src="https://photo-assets.superyachttimes.com/photo/235061/image/large-93b154cc6c85f02e3e8df759b65cda9c.jpg" data-gid="gid://syiq/Photo/235061">“This is something that no one else has managed to do up to date and something that you normally see only on 65 to 70 metre yachts,” Filippo Salvetti, Founder of Studio Salvetti, and exterior designer of the series explained.<img src="https://photo-assets.superyachttimes.com/photo/235063/image/large-be798dc5f70ea9f459987729f2cb10ce.jpg" data-gid="gid://syiq/Photo/235063">In order to facilitate this raised owner’s deck, a semi-deck has been created between the main deck and upper deck – this is where the helm station is located. This caused a challenge for the team stylistically, as it threw interruptions into the traditional white lines that run from the bow to stern of the rest of the Navetta series. To facilitate this, the exterior styling had to be adapted.<img src="https://photo-assets.superyachttimes.com/photo/235050/image/large-4f4bca0f90c10b71cb53986d2317b8a2.jpg" data-gid="gid://syiq/Photo/235050">Salvetti has introduced new lines to the Navetta 50 and pulled back the upper deck. These exterior lines change the character of the series, “making her more aggressive and pushing the series into a new era,” as Salvetti described.<img src="https://photo-assets.superyachttimes.com/photo/235055/image/large-d1de3cacf138483d95846ded7612b3e0.jpg" data-gid="gid://syiq/Photo/235055"><img src="https://photo-assets.superyachttimes.com/photo/235059/image/large-7a1b3475881ddba2648d1827217e0667.jpg" data-gid="gid://syiq/Photo/235059">The motivation behind moving the owner’s suite didn’t stem from aesthetics though, this was a happy consequence. The motives grew from the idea to offer the owner even more intimacy and impressive views from the master suite. The Navetta 50 offers astounding panoramic views and a secluded terrace for the owner, which is hidden from all areas of the yacht.<img src="https://photo-assets.superyachttimes.com/photo/235056/image/large-a91cbd2d7e169303d6a1ac222ad22fac.jpg" data-gid="gid://syiq/Photo/235056"><img src="https://photo-assets.superyachttimes.com/photo/235057/image/large-80371d55069befd1a038cfaa807f11db.jpg" data-gid="gid://syiq/Photo/235057"> Other key features of the Navetta 50 is her capacious sun deck, and transformable stern. The stern follows a similar design to that found on <a data-gid="gid://syiq/Company/12" href="#managed-by-system" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank" title="CRN (Company)">CRN</a> superyachts, with a foldable aft section that opens up the beach club. <img src="https://photo-assets.superyachttimes.com/photo/235064/image/large-c42e497c06a801f14cfff8aa07e541d1.jpg" data-gid="gid://syiq/Photo/235064"> <a data-gid="gid://syiq/Company/5082" href="#managed-by-system" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank" title="Antonio Citterio Patricia Viel (Company)">ACPV Architects</a> was enlisted to curate the interior spaces of the new flagship, and Patricia Viel, CEO of the Italian studio detailed the rich material palette that the Navetta 50 series will be furnished in during the conference. The studio has worked to give each deck its "own individual personality". The &nbsp;Navetta 50 will be a sub 500 GT motor yacht that offers accommodation for 10 guests and nine crew.<img src="https://photo-assets.superyachttimes.com/photo/235054/image/large-4b5d037c4b51ac3a662d96b9c61144b2.jpg" data-gid="gid://syiq/Photo/235054"><img src="https://photo-assets.superyachttimes.com/photo/235058/image/large-72807e81b39c9c5f73c7c1676fe4f323.jpg" data-gid="gid://syiq/Photo/235058">Performance-wise, <a data-gid="gid://syiq/Company/112" href="#managed-by-system" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank" title="Custom Line Spa (Company)">Custom Line</a> will equip the Navetta 50 with twin <a data-gid="gid://syiq/Company/1408" href="#managed-by-system" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank" title="Caterpillar Inc (Company)">CAT</a> engines that deliver enough power for a top speed of 16 knots. When dialled back to more economical speeds, the Navetta 50 will boast an approximate 4,000 nautical mile range.In regards to sustainability, &nbsp;as the Navetta 50 will be constructed out of aluminium and not steel, she'll be around three times lighter – cutting consumption by around 10-15 percent compared with a similar steel-built yacht in terms of weight and length. The shipyard itself in Ancona is also championing sustainability and has a trigeneration plant in place, which reduces electricity consumption by up to 79 percent and saves approximately 32 percent of heat energy.&nbsp;&nbsp;<a data-gid="gid://syiq/Company/5082" href="#managed-by-system" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank" title="Antonio Citterio Patricia Viel (Company)">ACPV Architects</a> has also written sustainability into the Navetta 50's interior design, opting for 100 percent recycled materials where possible, and where not the best sustainable solutions are used.<img src="https://photo-assets.superyachttimes.com/photo/235062/image/large-8d50df98b8de81b0dbb4c6e8de2cae86.jpg" data-gid="gid://syiq/Photo/235062"><a data-gid="gid://syiq/Company/112" href="#managed-by-system" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank" title="Custom Line Spa (Company)">Custom Line</a> has already commenced construction of the first unit of the series, slating summer 2024 for delivery. Stefano de Vivo, Chief Commercial Officer <a data-gid="gid://syiq/Company/4876" href="#managed-by-system" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank" title="Ferretti Group (Company)">Ferretti Group</a>, said that this model is being built on speculation but has garnered some serious interest – “hopefully in the next couple of weeks you will hear that it’s sold,” Stefano de Vivo said.
