Invictus Yacht is set to make headlines at the 2025 Cannes Yachting Festival with the world premieres of two striking new 16.87-metre models: the ST550 and TT550. Designed by Christian Grande and built by Cantieri Aschenez, the duo highlights two distinct visions of Mediterranean yachting.
Launching a new “ST” range—where “S” stands for “Space”—the ST550 introduces a contemporary take on the classic shuttle-style yacht. Prioritising refined comfort, it blends soft lines, expansive volumes, and noble materials such as teak, mahogany and stainless steel. Powered by twin Volvo Penta IPS800 or optional IPS950 engines, the ST550 is tailored for owners seeking private, serene cruising in an elegant setting. Its design offers a curated, spacious environment for extended stays aboard.

In contrast, the TT550 evolves the acclaimed TT series into a bold flagship, optimised for open-air living. Foldable side terraces expand the cockpit into an over-water platform, while the interior plays a supporting role to the yacht’s vibrant exterior zones. The model debuts in a distinctive “Stone White” with “Cloudy Cognac” upholstery, and is powered by Volvo Penta IPS engines, up to the IPS950 version.

Though built on the same hull platform, the ST550 and TT550 speak to different yachting lifestyles: one favouring sheltered sophistication, the other an immersive, outdoor connection to the sea. Both are fully customisable via Atelier Invictus, the brand’s design studio enabling owners to personalise colours, materials and accessories.
Also debuting at Cannes is the newly redesigned TT460. In collaboration with architect Fabio Rotella, Invictus introduces recyclable honeycomb panels to replace wood sub-deck walls, reducing displacement and fuel use. Eco-conscious finishes and innovative materials complete the upgrade.
Alongside the premieres, the TT420 and GT370 will also be on display at the Invictus stand (PAN 360 – PAN 014).
