The NY40 is the second boat to emerge from this ambitious young Italian builder

Like the original Nerea NY24, the Nerea NY40 is designed to combine naval tradition and hi-tech innovation with automotive design cues.

It’s tough not to love the herringbone teak decks or the contrasting mix of polished steel, open-knit fabrics, natural leathers and soft-touch lacquers.

The layout looks good too. In the cockpit, the central sunbed, framed in steel and lined with woven yarn, is big enough for three, but it can be expanded, thanks to a pair of drop-down teak tables and a convertible settee.

Down below, you can opt for a double bed or a C-shaped sofa in the bow cabin, plus a double bed or convertible singles aft.

And the rest of the boat is just as custom-friendly. Available in Open or T-top variants, with both outboard and sterndrive options, virtually everything you see can be tailored to your preference.
