Manufacturer Provided Description
At a length of 24 meters the Ferretti 780 is characterized by a completely innovative layout considering its internal details that guarantee ample space. It also presents refined finishes in teak wood compared to the traditional cherry wood that is normally adopted for a yacht of such dimensions. The design decision to integrate the access ladder to the flybridge within the wall structure of the yacht offers a continual visual solution from the rear deck facing the bow- thus enlarging the space dedicated to the conversation area featuring double sofas of contemporary design. Light colored finishes highlight the spirit of the boat, while large window structures allow to live in close contact with the sea, rendering the master cabin and the bathroom area an environment of great elegance to enjoy in full contact with the sea. Thanks to the introduction of the rear garage covered in teak the 780 offers many opportunities to take advantage of the open space, facilitating an easy descent into the sea.
Overview
This 780 is a great example of a yacht that has been well cared for. She has been meticulously cared for and operated under an open checkbook policy.
There is a radar/ satellite mast that can be lowered to allow the vessel to pass under low lying fixed bridges. This modification makes this one of the only 80'' yachts that can complete the Great Loop and many other hard to access locations.
Just forward of the mast is a location where the jet skis can be stored by a Besenzoni davit, a large dining table, and multiple areas for relaxing in the sun.
The vessel has a 4 guest stateroom layout that includes a large full-beam Master Cabin with huge hull side windows. Aft of the engine room are the two crew cabins. Each crew cabin has two bunks. The interior is in excellent condition and still shows like a new yacht.
A very nice option is the huge swim platform and garage. This area is accessed by the set of transom stairs on either side. When the transom door is opened the garage is exposed and the swim platform is lowered to the water. The garage is large enough to store a small tender.

Design
Evolution is the keyword that guides almost half a century of design and vision at Ferretti Yachts. Continuous research driven by innovation to create yachts that meet each owner’s unique desires in terms of comfort, style, navigation and safety at sea. This philosophy is evident in the aerodynamic design of the 780, which is brought to life by the clean shapes and sleek lines, accentuated by the choice to resize the height of the hull’s topsides to the benefit of the overall sporty character of the yacht. The aggressive look is enhanced by the separation between fiberglass elements and the glass surfaces. The hull design in particular takes the stylistic feature of the three windows corresponding to the guest cabins, from the Ferretti Yachts 450 and 550. In the superstructure, we find the shapes of the over 80’ flybridge yachts, which are added to the front and side section of the command station. An important innovation is the stern area, which offers the comforts of a real beach club with the new door operating system. Once the tailgate is fully opened, the space is transformed into a remarkable relaxing area close to the water.
