Ferretti 720 Review: The 74-Footer That Runs Like a 60

“




The 2026 updates address the two biggest complaints from the previous generation: galley visibility and natural light. The sliding door between the salon and galley is a smart move, and the expanded glazing makes the interior feel 10 feet longer than it actually is. The MAN V12s are proven, the hull is efficient, and the build quality is consistent with what you expect from Ferretti. This is a well-executed yacht, not a revolutionary one, and that’s exactly what this segment needs.

This boat is for the owner who wants to run their own trips but doesn’t want to sacrifice guest comfort or performance. It’s not for the buyer who needs a full-time crew or wants the absolute latest in hybrid propulsion or beach club features. The 720 is a traditional flybridge done right, and it competes directly with the Princess Y72 and the Azimut Grande 25 Metri. The Ferretti is faster than the Princess and more refined than the Azimut, which gives it a clear position in the market.

Resale on the 720 has been strong, particularly for V12-powered examples with low hours and desirable options. The brand has solid dealer support in South Florida, and parts availability for the MAN engines is excellent. Expect to hold 60 to 65 percent of your purchase price after three years if you maintain the boat properly and keep hours reasonable. That’s competitive with Princess and better than Azimut in this size range.”
