Ferretti 500 Elite en venta

DescriptionGreat condition. Private use only. Motivated seller.
Penned by the celebrated Zuccon International Project studio, the Ferretti 500 Elite is widely regarded as one of the most accomplished flybridge motor yachts of her generation, a bold evolution of the standard Ferretti 500 that delivers a refined exterior profile, an enhanced lower deck layout, and a level of Italian design flair that has kept demand for this model consistently strong on the second-hand market.

SOLE MIA is a well-maintained 2007 example in great condition, privately owned and never chartered by an experienced owner and his family throughout her life. She has just completed the voyage from Tivat, Montenegro to Istanbul, Turkey where she has undergone new antifoul and polishing to end the 2026 season.

At 15.49m LOA with a 4.60m beam and an impressive 1.98m cabin headroom, the 500 Elite punches well above her weight in terms of interior volume and quality. Below decks, two generous full double cabins each enjoy their own spacious ensuite bathrooms, while an aft crew cabin provides entirely separate crew accommodation. The bright, large windowed saloon flows naturally into a fully equipped galley. Under power, the combined 1,600hp of the twin MAN units drives her to a maximum of 33.5 knots, with a comfortable cruising speed of around 28 knots; performance figures that remain genuinely impressive today. The cockpit is accessed through glass patio doors from the saloon, with a teak-laid aft bathing platform, extendable passerelle, and sturdy swim ladder. The flybridge features a forward helm station, expansive sundeck, and a large extendable bimini for shade.

SOLE MIA is a genuinely compelling proposition; a privately kept, never-chartered Ferretti 500 Elite with notably low engine hours for her age, presented by a motivated seller at a price that reflects a serious desire to sell. The 500 Elite's combination of blistering performance, Italian craftsmanship, and generous accommodation for four guests has made her a perennial favourite, and examples in this condition with a clean private history are becoming increasingly scarce. VAT is not paid, which may suit buyers registering commercially or outside EU waters. A personal viewing is very strongly recommended, the quality and condition of this boat deserves to be seen in person.
