The new model expands the brand’s displacement portfolio under 270GT and builds on the direction set by the Custom Line Navetta 38, refining volume distribution, circulation, and environmental performance.
Strategic Collaboration Behind the Navetta 35
Exterior styling of the yacht comes from architect Filippo Salvetti, working alongside the Strategic Product Committee chaired by Piero Ferrari and the Ferretti Group Engineering Department. Interior design is by ACPV ARCHITECTS Antonio Citterio Patricia Viel, with the Custom Line Atelier supporting owners through the personalization process.
The design of Custom Line Navetta 35 springs from careful consideration of how the brand’s stylistic language has evolved. While maintaining consistency with the DNA of Custom Line Navetta 38 - particularly the graphic design and balanced proportions - the yacht features a new more sculptural approach to surface treatment."

The project reflects a continued emphasis on structural clarity and long-range cruising comfort, while introducing a stronger architectural identity within the Custom Line Navetta series.
Sculpted Profile and Reworked Circulation
The exterior profile adopts sculpted surfaces and tighter geometry than its predecessor, with Salvetti describing an influence drawn from automotive tension and aerodynamic form. Particular attention has been paid to the stern treatment and hull sides to reinforce continuity between surfaces and strengthen the yacht’s connection to the water.
A key structural change on board the superyacht concerns vertical circulation. The exterior staircase, traditionally positioned aft, has been relocated to amidships. This shift frees additional usable space across the aft decks and improves traffic flow between levels.
Outdoor areas total more than 300 square meters across three decks. The 58-square-meter Sun Deck is organized around a hardtop-shaded central lounge that can be configured as a relaxation area or sky bar. Forward, a sunset solarium frames open views, while aft an optional panoramic spa pool sits within a surround of sun pads.
Below, the upper deck features a 44-square-meter cockpit arranged for dining for ten, paired with a full-beam lounge. Inside, a fully glazed sky lounge continues the visual dialogue with the sea. A forward sunset lounge completes the exterior program with sea-facing sofas and a solarium arrangement. A stern garage on the lower deck accommodates a tender up to five meters and a jet ski.
Interior Architecture and Movement
The interior concept of the motor yacht centers on fluid movement and controlled privacy. A redesigned staircase sits on the starboard side of the main salon, concealed behind a reflective surface aft of the dining area. This repositioning creates an uninterrupted hallway leading toward the main-deck master suite and reduces visual intrusion within the living areas.
Extensive floor-to-ceiling glazing defines both the main and upper salons, increasing natural light penetration and reinforcing a continuous relationship with the exterior decks. Freestanding furniture designed by Antonio Citterio is raised from the floor, maintaining open sightlines through the glazing and emphasizing spatial lightness.
ACPV has developed three distinct interior schemes. “Light Mood” uses ivory, beige, and caramel tones with white lacquered wood paneling and textured fabrics. “Contrast Chocolate Mood” introduces darker leather, bone-china lacquering, and Grigio Alpi stone for a more structured expression. “Contrast Oyster Mood” balances pale woods with darker accents for a restrained, tonal aesthetic.
The Navetta 35 on one hand maintains the strong connection with yachting tradition, reinterpreted through a contemporary lens, but on the other reveals striking stylistic differences compared to other Navetta: the background is white, with very little wood, and the surfaces become even more textured. The three-dimensional, sculptural treatment of the textured surface is a signature feature of this project."

Accommodation is for 10 guests in five cabins, including a main-deck master suite and four lower-deck cabins, one fitted with an optional Pullman berth. Crew quarters support six, with a captain’s cabin on the upper deck and three additional cabins forward on the lower deck, alongside a dedicated crew mess and laundry area.
Engineering Layout and Cruising Efficiency
Standard propulsion comes from twin 1,400hp MAN V12 engines, delivering a range of up to 1,800 nautical miles in economy mode. An optional package of twin 1,622hp CAT C32 engines raises projected top speed to 16 knots. The yacht carries a 7.7-meter beam and a full-load draft of 2.2 meters, expanding access to shallow cruising grounds such as parts of the Caribbean.
Stabilization is handled by standard Sleipner fin stabilizers, with Seakeeper NG18 or NG26 gyroscopic units available as an alternative. The engine room layout has been configured for improved ergonomics and service access.
The project is also prepared for installation of a Selective Catalytic Reduction system, reducing NOx emissions by up to 70 percent in line with IMO Tier III regulations. This positions the Navetta 35 within current environmental compliance frameworks while maintaining long-range capability.
Scale and Strategy Across the Navetta Range
As the newest yacht in the four-model Custom Line Navetta range, the 34.5m Navetta 35 lands below the flagship Navetta 42, a 41.8m semi-displacement platform YachtBuyer has reviewed in depth. That larger yacht is known for its four-deck scale, five-cabin layout, and long-range cruising profile, with the reviewed example, Horizon, highlighting just how far owners can push customization on the platform - from accessibility-led layout changes to substantial engineering upgrades.
Against that backdrop, the Navetta 35 reads as a more compact, three-deck proposition, still built around five guest cabins and a strong emphasis on light, glazing, and deck usability. The comparison also clarifies Custom Line’s broader strategy: keep the Navetta identity consistent, then tune each model around different priorities of volume, circulation, and cruising use.
With three hulls already progressing and the first delivery scheduled for 2026, the Navetta 35 moves beyond concept status. The full technical and design disclosure clarifies its role within the displacement segment - a three-deck platform shaped around volume, circulation, and regulated cruising performance rather than headline speed.
