RARE GEM
Step aboard an architectural marvel where contemporary fine art meets the raw beauty of the open ocean—RARE GEM represents a bold, award-winning redefinition of the superyacht lifestyle.
A spectacular 28.50-metre Custom Line displacement yacht launched in 2022, RARE GEM serves as the crowning jewel of Ferretti Group’s elite Navetta 30 series. Masterfully styled externally by Filippo Salvetti with breathtaking residential interiors by the legendary design duo Antonio Citterio Patricia Viel, she seamlessly blends a traditional maritime silhouette with avant-garde styling. At 28.5 metres, she maximizes every millimeter of her wide-body configuration, providing an astonishing three-deck volume usually reserved for much larger vessels, while remaining agile enough to glide into the exclusive, shallow bays of Italy and the South of France that mega-yachts simply cannot access.
Life aboard RARE GEM flows effortlessly across three sprawling decks, custom-designed to host uncompromised open-air celebrations or deeply private retreats. The sun-drenched upper deck offers an immersive panoramic lounge space under the open sky, perfect for long afternoons or stargazing cocktail hours, while floor-to-ceiling panoramic glass windows inside frame boundless horizons under extraordinarily lofty ceilings. Below deck, RARE GEM provides an intimate, high-end sanctuary sleeping 10 guests across 5 opulent suites—headlined by a magnificent main deck master stateroom for ultimate owner privacy, alongside two queen VIP suites and two highly flexible twin cabins (one easily converting into a double and the other featuring an integrated pullman bed). An extraordinary professional crew of 5 delivers flawless, near 1:1 service throughout, and advanced stabilization systems underway and at anchor complement her leisurely, whisper-quiet 10-knot cruising speed to ensure your transit through the French Riviera never feels rushed.
RARE GEM turns a week at sea into something deeply personal. Whether the occasion is a milestone celebration, a multi-generational family holiday, a restorative escape, or a first-class superyacht charter, she offers absolute privacy, total flexibility, and a genuine masterclass in refined luxury living on the water.
