AURORE is one of the newest flybridge yachts to reach the charter market, a 2026 Ferretti delivered with exterior lines by Filippo Salvetti and interiors by IdeaeItalia. She reads as calm and current rather than loud, and that restraint is the point. Clean white topsides, glazing that runs almost the full length of the main deck, and a layout built around easy movement between sea, deck and sky give her a composed, contemporary presence.
Twin MAN V12 engines give her real pace. She tops out around 30 knots, so a slow morning in one Sardinian bay and a late lunch in the next is a simple decision rather than a logistical one. For most of a charter week, though, AURORE is happiest at anchor, her sun deck and swim platform turning the water into the main room of the house.
Her cruising ground is the obvious match. Based in Sardinia, she sits within a short run of the Costa Smeralda, the pink granite of La Maddalena and the quiet anchorages of the archipelago, with Corsica and the wider Tyrrhenian within comfortable reach.
The main deck is where the design voice is clearest. A single, light filled space moves from a forward dining area to a relaxed salon, the sea never more than a glance away through the long windows. Pale upholstery, warm wood and considered detailing keep the mood soft and unhurried. Nearby, a dedicated media and relaxation lounge offers a cooler, more private counterpoint for film nights or an afternoon out of the sun.
Accommodation follows the same logic of space over show. AURORE sleeps eight guests across four cabins. The master suite is the quiet centre of the yacht, generous and full of light, with a private reading and study corner that gives the lead guest a place to work or simply step away. The further cabins are calm and uncluttered, finished to the same standard, so no one aboard feels they drew the short cabin.
Three professional crew run the yacht without ever seeming to be underfoot. Service here is attentive and discreet, the kind that anticipates rather than interrupts, which on a yacht of this size is what separates a good week from a memorable one. A tender and a selection of water toys extend the day from the swim platform, and the shaded aft deck is set for long lunches as the afternoon drifts on.
What makes AURORE worth a closer look is less any single feature than the overall balance. She is new, so the finish and systems are current. She is quick, so the itinerary stays open. She is intelligently laid out, so eight guests and three crew share her without friction. And she is based in one of the Mediterranean’s most rewarding cruising grounds, ready to make the most of a Sardinian summer.
For a group that wants a modern, well proportioned yacht with the pace to roam and the calm to settle, AURORE is a quietly confident answer. She is built for what comes next, and she carries it off with ease.
