Five reasons why the Picchiotti 24 deserves attention from serious buyers

Five Reasons to Buy the Picchiotti 24, Smart Yachts

For nearly five centuries, Picchiotti has been synonymous with Italian boatbuilding. Founded in 1575, the yard helped shape Mediterranean yachting long before the word “superyacht” entered the lexicon. Today, under The Italian Sea Group, the brand has been revived with the Picchiotti 24 – a modern interpretation of the Gentleman’s Yacht that brings together heritage, contemporary styling, and practical ownership advantages. Here are five reasons why the Picchiotti 24 deserves attention from serious buyers.

1. Immediate delivery – Rare advantage

In a market where waiting lists for new builds often stretch years, the Picchiotti 24 is available for immediate delivery in 2025. At 23.96 meters with a gross tonnage of 150 GT, she represents an unusual opportunity to step into ownership of a brand-new yacht without the wait. For an owner who wants to enjoy the coming season rather than wait through a multi-year build schedule, this alone is a compelling reason.

2. A modern gentleman’s yacht with historic roots

Picchiotti’s legacy dates back to the Renaissance, and the Picchiotti 24 pays tribute to that lineage while looking firmly forward. Designed by Luca Dini and TISG Centro Stile, she carries strong, masculine exterior lines on a semi-displacement aluminium hull & superstructure. The wide-body volume provides a presence on the water that is hard to match in her size range. It is a yacht that deliberately references a classic era while delivering every expectation of modern performance and comfort.

3. Performance with range

Powered by twin MAN V8 engines delivering 1,300 hp each, the Picchiotti 24 cruises comfortably at 16 knots and reaches a top speed of 19 knots. For longer passages, cruising at 9 knots unlocks a range of 1,800 nautical miles – enough to cover itineraries from Monaco to Mykonos, Sardinia to Ibiza, without constant fuel stops. With 10,000-liter fuel capacity and 2,000 liters of freshwater storage, be sure she is equipped for extended coastal and short-range cruising.

4. Space that works for Owners and Guests

The yacht accommodates 6 guests in 3 cabins, with separate crew quarters ensuring privacy and effective service. A convertible beach club adds capacity for two additional guests, expanding flexibility for family or close friends. Inside, the interiors are distinguished by deep-hued furniture and clean, timeless lines, avoiding fashion-led excess in favor of timelessness. It’s a yacht designed to age well, appealing to owners who appreciate understated quality.

5. An expansive Beach Club experience & Tender included

Few yachts below 24 meters can offer an outdoor living area as good as the Picchiotti 24. Her fold-out sea terrace and extra-large beach club, one of the biggest in her size range, forge a direct link with water. A sliding glass door links with the swim platform on the same level, making the stern feel like an extra open-air living space. It’s this area that doubles as a guest cabin if needed. A specially designed tender is included, ensuring owners have the right craft to match the yacht’s style and purpose.

Conclusion

Picchiotti 24 enters the market at €8.9 million with an unusual mixture of heritage and immediacy: the authenticity of one of the oldest Italian shipyards and brand new, sea-readiness of a yacht. The yacht not only acknowledges the heritage of the yacht but considers how owners cruise on yachts today with less waiting, strong lifestyle features, and performance fit for Mediterranean or northern waters. For buyers wanting a "new classic", who do not want to compromise on practicality, the Picchiotti 24 makes as clear a case as possible.
