Bellini Yachts

Bellini Yacht sits within Bellini Nautica SPA, a group founded in 1960 by Battista Bellini on the shores of Lake Iseo, in the village of Clusane, Brescia - a stretch of water with deep boatbuilding roots shared by names such as Riva, Rio, and Arcangeli. The original yard built handcrafted wooden runabouts that competed on style and performance with the best Italian builders of the era, producing roughly 700 hulls across models including the Condor, Atlantic, and Astor before production ceased in 1973 following the founder's illness.

For the next five decades the group stayed active in storage, restoration, and refitting - building particular expertise in the recovery of classic and vintage craft. In 2023, the third generation relaunched new-build production under the Bellini Yacht banner, calling upon designer Brunello Acampora of Victory Design and Norberto Ferretti, founder of Ferretti Yachts, to define the contemporary line-up.

The current range centres on two walkaround models. The ASTOR 36 - a 36ft centre-console walkaround - made its debut at the Cannes Yachting Festival 2024 and is the build we would put forward for superyacht tender or chase-boat duty; twin Volvo Penta V8 petrol options run from 350 hp to 380 hp, with diesel D4 alternatives, and the twin-380 hp petrol configuration is quoted at above 42 knots. The ASTOR 58, a 17.88-metre walkaround, followed for Cannes 2025. Both carry deep-V hulls tuned for stability and a spray-painted finish across six signature colour configurations. Owners can specify the B Atelier programme for bespoke paint, upholstery, materials, and finish details. The yard is listed on Euronext Growth Milan and holds a UK dealer network through Sebino Yachts.
