The two premieres – Riva 56’ Rivale Super and Ferretti Yachts 720 – lead a fleet of eight yachts, reflecting the extraordinary breadth and variety of the Group’s offering.
Forlì, 1 October 2026 – Ferretti Group opens the Genoa International Boat Show with two magnificent premieres and a fleet that showcases the strengths of its design philosophy: constant innovation, cutting-edge design, advanced technology and a passion for beauty.
From October 1 to 6, 2026, the Riva, Pershing, Itama, Ferretti Yachts and Wally brands will take centre stage at the Show with a selection ranging from timeless style to sportiness and from Italian tradition to cutting-edge naval engineering. Leading the fleet are two major premieres: Riva 56’ Rivale Super and Ferretti Yachts 720.
Riva 56’ Rivale Super is the evolution of one of the most celebrated models in the Riva range. This new version of the Rivale brings to the 56-foot segment the unmistakable balance of elegance, sportiness and functionality that is imprinted in the brand’s DNA. The model reinterprets Riva’s stylistic hallmarks in a contemporary key, through refined design, meticulous attention to detail and a special focus on the on-board experience.
The second debut in the fleet is Ferretti Yachts 720, which embodies the brand’s philosophy through a refined balance of comfort, elegance and innovation. With its new flybridge, Ferretti Yachts reinterprets yachting through spaces designed to fully experience the connection with the sea and enhance the pleasure of cruising, creating a natural and harmonious continuity between interior and exterior areas. A project in which design, functionality and attention to detail come together to offer an authentic and contemporary experience.
Rounding off Ferretti Group’s presence at the Genoa International Boat Show are Pershing 6X, Itama 54, Ferretti Yachts 580, wallypower50 and wallywhy200: a fleet that showcases the distinctive identity of five brands and different visions of life at sea.
Pershing 6X brings the brand’s sporty and high-performance ethos to the quayside, combining speed, technology and comfort. Itama 54, on the other hand, celebrates open-deck yachting in the style so highly valued by its owners, embodying freedom, Mediterranean flair and the pleasure of cruising.
With Ferretti Yachts 580, the Group presents one of the flybridge yachts that best embodies the philosophy of modern luxury: a perfect balance between design, comfort and sportiness.
The fleet is rounded off by the two Wally models, which embody a highly innovative vision of yachting: wallypower50 redefines the concept of the sporty walkaround with exhilarating performance and perfect manoeuvrability, wallywhy200 interprets the Wally philosophy in a new dimension, combining unconventional design solutions, spacious interiors and a unique blend of design and functionality.
In the “Living Made in Italy” Hub at Quay H – the area dedicated to vessels over 24 metres, bringing together yachts in the 35–50-metre range – Ferretti Group is also exhibiting the seventh Pershing GTX116, the GTX range flagship which with its revamped interiors combines a sporting spirit with extraordinary liveability.
“Genoa is the original boat show — the one that started it all 66 years ago. For Ferretti Group, coming here is not just another stop on the calendar. It is coming home to one of the great stages of Italian yachting. After Cannes and Monaco, we arrive in Genoa with two premieres, a powerful fleet and one very simple ambition: to show where yachting goes next. Our brands have extraordinary history, but history only matters if you use it to create the future. That means more innovation, more emotion, more performance and, above all, yachts that owners genuinely want to use. Ferretti Group is proudly Italian, relentlessly international and never interested in standing still. Genoa is where the past of yachting meets its future.” said Stassi Anastassov, Ferretti Group Global CEO.
