AB 130

Ab Yachts, a brand of Next Yacht Group, a shipyard that has been active in the high-performance yacht sector for over thirty years, provides information on the initiatives that have seen it participate in the Venice Boat Show with the Ab 100, launch two yachts in May, deliver the new flagship Ab 130, and receive international recognition at the World Superyacht Awards.

The fourth Ab 80 unit was launched on May 19th. This 25,4-meter yacht was designed to exceed 55 knots and is aimed at owners who wish to personally pilot their vessel, without sacrificing comfort and advanced technology. The Ab 80 is the first yacht launched at the renovated historic Viareggio shipyard, now the group's headquarters. The site, which has tripled its production capacity and houses the group's offices, is currently undergoing a renovation, as is the "Ab Yachts & Maiora Deck Lounge," designed to welcome clients and accommodate seven units in the water.

Another milestone was the recent delivery of the first AB 130 unit. At 40 meters, this flagship introduces innovative features such as an expandable beach area, an optional sea-view pool, a float-in garage, and waterjets that allow it to exceed 40 knots. Equipped with advanced Seakeeper stabilizers and a draft of just 1,30 meters, the AB 130 is designed to offer superior comfort and optimal performance even on demanding cruises.

Sebastiano Fanizza, CEO of Next Yacht Group, emphasized the company's current phase of growth and renewal, which aims to consolidate its position in the high-performance yacht segment. "Every milestone we achieve reflects our desire to continually push the boundaries of speed, technology, and design, while also attentively addressing our owners' desires for customization. Today more than ever, our goal is to offer unparalleled sailing experiences, anticipating the expectations of tomorrow's owners and carefully listening to the desires of those who choose to sail with us."
