Ferretti Group triumphs once again this year at the World Yachts Trophies 2019, the eagerly awaited final event of the Cannes Yachting Festival, claiming 5 trophies thanks to the unmistakable Made in Italy style and the many design and technology innovations proposed aboard its vessels.

It is another big success for the Group that, following the enthusiasm of Festival visitors for its fleet of wonders (26 models and 6 premières), now receives the approval of the experts with the most coveted awards in the industry, confirming a supremacy in aesthetics and innovation that is widely acclaimed.

Here are the awards for the boats:

- Ferretti Yachts 720: Best Exterior Design Trophy, category 64–80 feet (19.50-24 metres);

- Riva 90’ Argo: Best Interior Design Trophy, category 80–98 feet (24-30 metres);
