The Italian icon of sea craftsmanship, Perini Navi, has unveiled its fourth 60m sailing yacht, Katana.

The lofty arena of sailing yachts continues to be invigorated with breath-taking innovations and excellent craftsmanship. A prominent key player, leading the path of this industry’s marvellous inventions, is the Italian seacraft maven, Perini Navi.

The revered shipyard, renowned for its exquisite sailing vessels, has recently introduced a new member into its esteemed fleet, the fourth hull of its 60-metre series, Katana. Secured at The Italian Sea Group’s Marina di Carrara, the coveted yacht is armying up for its first sail towards Gibraltar. Following the helm of her sisterships Perseus 3, Seahawk, and Seven, the construction of Katana took off in 2016 and was acquired a year after by the owner of the Monaco-based Gamma Yachts. After a short pause, the beauty resumed its creation process in 2022, now finally gracing the waters.

In terms of onboard comfort, Katana astonishes with her interior arrangement that presents a master suite along with five stylish guest cabins. Her elegant interiors are the creation of renowned French designer Rémi Tessier. While the shipyard remains alluringly discreet about revealing full details, it promises ‘refined’ settings for voyagers, negating any need for excessive display to impress.

Echoing the resounding success of Katana’s delivery, Gianmaria Costantino, the Chief Commercial Officer of The Italian Sea Group, expressed that the launch marks another milestone for Perini Navi’s grand relaunch project. He proudly affirmed the company’s commitment to excellence and their ability to merge tradition with innovation harmoniously. His affirmation came in the wake of a successful financial report from the shipyard, which recorded a satisfactory €96.8 million revenue in the first quarter of 2025.

In the ocean of sailing vessels, the Katana yacht stands as a testament to Perini Navi’s unwavering dedication to quality, innovation, and seaworthiness. As anticipation builds, sailing enthusiasts and fans eagerly await the day when Katana hits the water, confirming her place amongst the world’s most impressive superyacht fleet.
