Rossi Navi completes motor yacht South

By Merijn de Waard

Rossi Navi, best known as subcontractor for hulls and superstructures for other shipyards, completed the 53.2m motor yacht South. Here striking exterior lines and her modern understated interior were designed by Mauro Micheli of Officina Italiana Design.

Her main deck accommodates the owner's suite, as well as a VIP stateroom, while there are 4 more cabins on the lower deck, 2 doubles and 2 twins. The grey hulled yacht is powered by twin 2,200 HP Caterpillar 3516 engines, enabling her to achieve a top speed of 17 knots.

South is the third yacht completed by Rossi Navi. In 1999 the 38.85m Sud was delivered to the same owner as South and the 28m Tex was completed in 2004. The future of Rossi Navi looks bright as well with a 70m yacht under construction.
