The annual Cannes Yachting Festival, a showcase for nautical innovation, saw Italian builder Invictus Yachts make a bold statement by simultaneously unveiling two distinct flagship models: the ST550 and TT550. While both 16.87-meter vessels embody exceptional Italian design and craftsmanship, their unique philosophies make them perfectly suited for those seeking the ultimate day yacht experience, catering to diverse preferences for enjoying time on the water.
Designed by Christian Grande and built at the esteemed Cantieri Aschenez shipyard, both the ST550 and TT550 uphold the quality and engineering excellence synonymous with the Invictus brand. However, it’s their distinct approaches to onboard living that define their appeal as ideal day yachts.
The ST550, with its “Interior-focused elegance,” offers a refined cruising experience perfect for day-long excursions where comfort and a sense of retreat are paramount. Its emphasis on maximizing internal volume and generous living areas creates a sophisticated haven at sea. Features like the customizable deck layout, panoramic glass surrounding the main deck, and well-appointed staterooms provide an elevated environment for relaxing and entertaining. For those who envision a day yacht as a tranquil escape, offering climate-controlled comfort and elegant spaces for intimate gatherings, the ST550 is the quintessential choice. It allows for a seamless, refined experience, whether cruising along the coast or anchored in a secluded bay.
In contrast, the TT550, championing “Exterior-driven Performance,” is designed for the more dynamic day yacht enthusiast who desires an active connection with the marine environment. Its design prioritizes open-air living with innovative features such as the signature semi-reversed bow and fold-out side terraces that expand the cockpit area. The rear seating area converts into a sunbathing platform, and a comfortable bow lounge space accommodates various activities throughout the day. The TT550 is the perfect day yacht for those who seek alfresco dining, direct water access for swimming and water sports, and a vibrant, performance-oriented experience. Its bold design and lively color options enhance its appeal for a fun-filled day on the water, embracing the coastal lifestyle with style and personality.
Invictus Yachts‘ dual-model strategy demonstrates a keen understanding of diverse buyer lifestyles, ensuring that whether your ideal day involves serene relaxation or exhilarating activity, there’s an Invictus flagship to match. Both the ST550 and TT550 benefit from the Atelier Invictus customization program, allowing owners to personalize materials, colors, and accessories, creating a semi-custom yacht that perfectly reflects their individual preferences for the ultimate day on the water. Available through FGI Yacht Group, these models are more than just yachts; they are meticulously crafted vessels designed to deliver unforgettable day yachting experiences, reflecting exceptional Italian design and craftsmanship.
