2022 Ferretti Yachts 500

Luxury throughout.

Boat Test #1732
By: Captain Christopher Kourtakis

Breathtakingly beautiful, astonishingly comfortable, the Ferretti Yachts 500 ushers in a new era for the brand. The brand-new yacht combines nautical adventures with domestic spaces that you would expect to find on their larger yachts. This yacht allows you to immerse your guests and family, while allowing you to discover life’s pleasures.

As you enter the cabin through the sliding glass door, the galley is immediately to the port. Forward you have a plush L-shaped dinette to the port and a large bench immediately across. The helm is functionally laid out with two large multi-functional displays and all the controls at your fingertips.

The master stateroom is midship and provides a large airy cabin with windows adoring either side of the cabin. There is plenty of storage on either side, along with a built-in love seat. The mirrored wall just above the bed expands the size of the cabin. The forward cabin is just as luxurious with plenty of natural light and a berth fit for a queen. The third stateroom has two bunk beds that each have their own nightstand.  

The bridge is open and provides a breathtaking view from any one of the seats. To the aft is a L-shaped dinette. The helm is forward on the portside with a large sun pad immediately to the starboard. The forward sun pad on the bow of the boat is plush and provides room for three to four adults. Teak decking can be found throughout the bow and the rest of the walking surfaces.  

The main deck outside seating area is spacious and protected from the elements. 

The massive swim platform can be accessed from either side of the cockpit. The bow area is easily accessible with the integrated stairs on both the starboard and port side of the cockpit. The plush seating area can accommodate up to four adults comfortably and room for two more if you want to add a couple of chairs.  

The lines of the 500 are like no other. They stretch the boat out to look and feel larger than it is. The placement of the windows and the design of the main cabin windows create sleekness yet open the interior. The 500 is timeless and breathtaking. No wonder as she is made by Ferretti!
