Ferretti group revealed at the Monaco Yacht Show a series of larger superyachts under the Pershing and Riva brands.

The Pershing yacht added a 140ft design and Riva is building their new ?Superyacht Division?, announced at the 2014 MYS, which includes a new 50-metre design.

To be constructed from a light alloy, the Pershing 140 will take over from the Pershing 115 series, of which 10 hulls were constructed, as the largest variant in the Pershing line.

Riva?s new superyacht division will focus on two separate lines; one being aimed at a more classic and traditional design approach. The other, a sportier line aimed at a more performance orientated market, drawing inspiration from the brand?s coupe range of yachts such as the very successful Domino 88 model. Both divisions will be available in 50m, 60m, 70m and 90m models.

?We enthusiastically took on the challenge of creating a new Riva superyacht line, - comments Mauro Micheli, the founder, together with Sergio Beretta, of Officina Italiana Design, - which will allow us to prove once more that Italian yacht design can compete on an equal standing with the large North-European shipyards, in terms of both quality and product exclusiveness."
