Filippetti SPORT 55: piloting is even more exciting thanks to the Shipyard's cooperation with XENTA and Twin Disc.
Filippetti SPORT 55: piloting is even more exciting thanks to the Shipyard's cooperation with XENTA and Twin Disc.
Since its very debut, the 'Arneson Surface Drives by Twin Disc' surface drives version of the Filippetti Sport 55 has proven to be one of the best-performing yachts in her class.
Developed in close cooperation with Davide Cipriani from Centrostiledesign, this 55-footer was born to give her Owner the thrill of piloting a yacht that has pure sportiness inscribed in her DNA.
Besides creating a flawlessly-designed hull thought to achieve top performances, Filippetti Yacht has chosen the best partners, to deliver an even-more-breathtaking yachting experience. The Filippetti Sport 55, indeed, seals the beginning of the cooperation between Twin Disc and XENTA: thanks to XENTA X-I2, the central unit that manages the operation of all XENTA systems installed on board, Filippetti Yacht's fast cruiser features, for the first time ever, one single advanced interface for the management of ASD surface drives and XENTA trim controller and driving systems. The full integration between Arneson and XENTA achieved for the Filippetti Sport 55 enhances the pleasure of driving, the yacht's manoeuvrability, both when cruising and in confined waters, and her performances.
XENTA is a leader in the development and manufacturing of integrated steering and trim control systems for yachts and superyachts, offering a complete range of innovative products that allow for total control of a vessel, whether cruising or manoeuvring, offering maximum performance and superior reliability.
The Arneson by Twin Disc surface drives, which the shipyard installs standard on high-performance boats as a result of its long-standing partnership with the American manufacturer, are excellent propulsion systems that guarantee outstanding performances and high reliability, but may sometimes be challenging for those who are not familiar with them.
"We have chosen these two strategic partners for our Sport 55 with the certainty of endowing our product with great added value, but also to respond to those who would like to approach the world of surface drives for the first time, but feel intimidated by the greater complexity of these systems" says Filippetti Yacht's CEO Giovanni Filippetti “With these innovative XENTA systems on board, driving our Sport 55 will become a piece of cake".
The integrated Xenta system (X-Steer - the electronic steering system -, XENTA X-Power - XENTA's electronic throttles for engine power control -, and XENTA X-Tab - the flap control system) allows to manage the dynamic trim of the boat while cruising, automatically adjusting the flaps position and the pitch and trim of the ASD surface drives. The captain will only have to manage speed, forgetting about the need to adjust the trim manually to find the best performance - undoubtedly a great advantage for those who are not familiar with surface drives, be they captains or owners.
Moreover, the shipyard will offer the opportunity to install the XENTA X-Dock manoeuvring joystick, too, which electronically manages the power delivered by the bow and stern drives proportionally, as well as engine power and the Arneson drives orientation. "Using the XENTA Joystick, the captain will be able to perform mooring operations as easily and safely (and perhaps even more easily and safely) as with any hull equipped with shaft drives or other systems, which conclusively debunks the myth that boats equipped with Arneson drives are difficult to steer."
One more option the owner can choose to install on the Filippetti Sport 55 is the XENTA X-DP (Dynamic Positioning), i.e. the XENTA system capable of keeping the boat steady and the bow-pointing angle at constant compass degrees, without having to drop anchor.
This new package will be available for all Sport 55 boats fitted with Arneson Surface Drives.

The Arneson Surface Drives System (ASD) will be set up on all the Filippetti Sport range from 55’ to 75’ and the Flybridge range, when Customer chooses the configuration with surface propellers.
Thanks to the use of ASD technology, the Filippetti Shipyard is able to guarantee maximum performance, managing to satisfy those Owners who want to reach speeds in excess of 40 knots.
The Arneson Drives System provides performance and shallow draft on the Filippetti Sport and Flybridge series.

FILIPPETTI FLYBRIDGE 93: FLYBRIDGE LUXURY YACHT WITH SPORTY STYLE
The Filippetti Flybridge 93 is a unique Flybridge model that combines a high-speed performance with luxurious wide open spaces.
As is well-known, the F line characterizes the large Filippetti fly bridge yachts, with sporty style.
It is an exclusive sector, which requires great commitment in choosing strategies related to style, materials, comfort, and performance.
Designed by Fulvio De Simoni, the Filippetti Flybridge 93 inaugurates a new type of Flybridge.
Filippetti Flybridge 93 combines the spaciousness and comfort of its class with a more aggressive design and high-performance aspects that are typically associated with open motor yachts.
The result is a fast, sleek, and sophisticated yacht.
Most importantly, Filippetti Flybridge 93 has the ideal mix of high-speed performance, sporty design, and large open spaces. Thanks to its high performance planing hull, F93 has a cruising speed of 36 knots, reaching a maximum speed of 41 knots.
MAIN DECK
The salon on the main deck is one of the most comfortable areas of the boat. A white leather “L” shaped sofa welcomes guests and provides a clear view of the handcrafted cabinet.
Upon entering the salon, one is immediately struck by the modern and sophisticated décor. The area features a mix of finishes in varying shades of gray, with lacquered wood and a special ordered Zebrawood with a striped effect. Finally, everything combines with the neutral tones of the white leather and the repeated use of steel.
The floor is an oak parquet, while the light-toned ceiling is illuminated by bands of LED lights arranged in parallel designed by Cantalupi lighting.
Further along, the starboard is the bar area. The uniquely designed bar unit features steel mirror bands alternating with strips of LED lights, surrounded by six white leather bar stools supplied by Poltrona Frau. This area is customizable to include an additional dining table in lieu of the bar area.At the bow, wheelhouse is equipped with the finest Simrad instruments and the monitoring system for the entire boat.
The dashboard is particularly eye-catching: the finished in black leather counteracts with the white stitching on both the console and seats. In addition, the wheelhouse roof can be opened.
MAIN DECK - EXTERIOR
The external portion of the bow houses a large sundeck, built for the pleasure of cruising. The sun deck features a table with a semi-circular sofa and a bimini top.
The cockpit, the perfect place for relaxing or entertaining, features a large dining table, sofa chairs, and a retractable TV cabinet.
From the cockpit, access to the salon is through a retractable glass door that merges the interior and exterior spaces. In this way, Filippetti has created one large area extending from the wheelhouse to the cockpit offering a unique and multipurpose space.The Filippetti Flybridge 93 features large windows that line each side of the salon and helm that bring bright daylight into the interiors, emphasizing the volume of this generous space.
The interior has been glazed in dark gray. This shade emphasizes the yacht’s sporty character and contrasts with the white metallic hull.
In conclusion, the Filippetti Flybridge 93 can be reached through starboard a stairway from the cockpit. Another starboard stairway on the inside of the salon leads to the galley and the crew quarters in the lower deck.
FLYBRIDGE
Filippetti has placed a Flybridge with two large open sun pads and a second helm station atop the yacht.On the starboard of the bridge lies the external helm station with a full wet bar area, including a refrigerator, freezer, icemaker, and barbecue. On the port, we found a large sundeck, sheltered from the wind and perfect for relaxing while cruising.
At the aft in the wide solarium area, we found four chaises loungers. Amidship lies a spacious dining room with a C-shaped sofa surrounding a retractable table.
At the owner’s request, Filippetti has also replaced the traditional Flybridge hardtop with a soft, retractable top to emphasize its sleek and sporty lines. The Shipyard added a retractable crane for loading and unloading the owner’s toys. The structure is totally hidden and integrated into the furniture when not in use.
LOWER DECK
Access to the lower deck is through a stylish glass and steel staircase from the main deck behind the pilothouse seats. The interior layout includes four staterooms at the forward, while the galley and the crew quarter are at the stern.
Three of the four spacious and luxurious cabins have large queen-size beds and one has two single beds. The large master cabin is amidships and the VIP cabin is located at the bow. The owner chose to customize each cabin with subtle nuances through the use of striking colors in the fabrics and main furnishing elements. Likewise, even the mosaic tiles of the showers incorporate different shades to match the accent colors in each cabin.The large windows, a hallmark of the Flybridge series, allow natural light to fill the interior.
The warm gray shades continue through the cabins with striped Zebrawood for fixtures and furnishings, and white tone silk carpets and ceilings.
In conclusion, the galley in the stern includes all Miele brand appliances. That' s includes owen, American sized refrigerator and freezer, dishwasher, microwave, and an induction heat glass stove.
CREW AREA
The crew area is accessed through an internal staircase on the main deck with direct access to the engine room. Designed for three people, it includes two cabins - for the captain and one with bunk beds- two bathrooms, and a kitchen. Further, the quarters houses a laundry room outfitted with a professional Miele washing machine and a vented dryer.
The wide and deep garage at the stern can house both a four-meter tender and a jet ski. The bathing platform has stairs to allow the owner to easily reach the water.
HI-TECH EQUIPMENT
Filippetti Yacht has given great attention to the innovative technology on board.
The dashboard is equipped with the latest Simrad instrumentation. Further, an integrated camera system and a night vision FLIR system ensure maximum visibility during navigation and mooring operations.

The exterior lighting, provided by Cantalupi RGBW LED spotlights, offers an innovative solution to create powerful color accents and add amazing effects and ambiance.
Further twelve Seavision underwater lights complete the exterior lighting system.
