The S55 perfectly combines power, Italian design, and artisanal craftsmanship, offering a seamless blend of speed, comfort, and refined style.
Measuring 17.38 meters in length and 4.64 meters in beam, the S55 embodies the spirit of the Sport range: a yacht that merges exceptional performance, elegant styling, and luxurious comfort. This latest model features a new iridescent metallic grey hull, highlighting its aggressive yet sophisticated lines. The exterior design, developed by Filippetti’s technical team in collaboration with Davide Cipriani of CentroStileDesign, balances sportiness and elegance, while expansive glass surfaces flood the interiors with natural light, creating visual continuity between spaces.
The yacht is powered by two MAN V8 engines of 1,200 HP each, paired with Arneson Surface Drive transmissions, achieving a top speed of over 47 knots and a cruising speed of around 40 knots, while maintaining excellent stability and efficiency. Advanced electronic control systems by Xenta and an intuitive joystick maneuvering system allow even novice operators to handle the yacht safely in port.
Below deck, the S55 offers three cabins and two bathrooms, accommodating up to six guests in spaces featuring premium woods, travertine marble, and handcrafted leather finishes, standing apart from industrial-standard interiors. A standout design feature is the Besenzoni retractable glass door separating the main salon from the cockpit, creating a spacious open-air area on the main deck and enhancing visual continuity and space usability.
Outdoor areas include a generous cockpit connected to the stern platform and a large foredeck sunbathing area, ideal for entertainment and relaxation at sea.
The hull is constructed in fiberglass using vacuum infusion, ensuring lightweight strength and durability, while the superstructure and all its components are made from carbon fiber, providing additional weight reduction without compromising structural integrity. Direct supervision by the Filippetti shipyard guarantees the highest production standards at every stage.
With the launch of this latest S55 unit, Filippetti Yachts reaffirms its commitment to high-performance yachts that combine advanced technology, Italian design, and artisanal excellence, continuing a deeply rooted tradition of innovation, craftsmanship, and nautical luxury.
