Rossinavi is known for ambitious full custom superyachts. The Rossinavi Nolimits 45 comes from a different part of the Viareggio yard: Nolimits Yachts, a dedicated semi custom brand the builder launched in 2024. The 45 is its flagship and first launch, a 45 metre all aluminium motor yacht that keeps deliberately below 500 gross tons. Her first hull, Gemini, was launched in November 2025 and had already found an American owner.
A new brand from Viareggio
Nolimits Yachts arrived in 2024 as an explorer minded, semi custom line from Rossinavi. The range is conceived as a crossover between an explorer and a classic motor yacht, and the 45 leads it. The idea is to bring Rossinavi engineering and build quality to a more defined, series based proposition, where an owner starts from a known platform rather than a blank sheet.
The point of staying under 500 tons
Her cleverest move is her gross tonnage. At 499 GT she sits just beneath the 500 ton mark, the threshold above which crewing, certification and operating demands rise sharply. The result is a yacht that measures over forty five metres and cruises like a larger one, yet stays lighter on paperwork and running cost. A good deal of thoughtful design in the 40 to 46 metre band now gathers around that line, and the Nolimits 45 is built around it rather than bumping into it.
Aluminium and efficiency
Built entirely in aluminium to RINA class, she carries a full displacement hull drawn for comfortable, economical long range cruising. Twin Caterpillar C32 engines give a top speed near fifteen knots and a relaxed twelve knot cruise, with a range of around 4,000 nautical miles that opens transatlantic passages. A shallow draught of roughly two and a quarter metres widens the choice of anchorages, which matters for a yacht pitched at owners who want to explore.
Accommodation and style
Below, five staterooms sleep up to ten guests, with a full beam owner’s suite taking pride of place and the lower deck given to further double and twin cabins. Nine crew keep her running on passage and at anchor. The sub 500 ton volume still translates into bright, generous spaces inside and out. The exterior is by Fulvio De Simoni and the interior by The Touch Studio, both following the clean, contemporary line that defines the brand.
Afloat, and ready to repeat
Gemini launched at Viareggio in November 2025 and had already found an American owner, a strong endorsement for a debut model. As a semi custom series yacht, later hulls can be tailored to an owner’s taste in layout, finish and cruising intent. The guide price sits at around 33 million euros. For a buyer drawn to an efficient, ocean capable aluminium yacht of real presence that stays nimble and straightforward to run, she makes a clear case.
