Forte Yachts is now preparing to complete its first model: the Forte 47 — a dynamic 14-metre yacht currently approaching the final stages of construction.

Forte Yachts, a new high-end Italian yacht brand born from the solid technical and entrepreneurial foundations of West Naval Tech – a shipyard well-known for its expertise in aluminum construction for both workboats and superyacht components.

The debut model in build represents a striking new entry into the 14-metre yacht segment – crafted entirely in aluminium and designed for weekend, high-performance cruising. Despite its relatively compact size, this yacht brings volume, innovation, and a premium feel more typically associated with far larger yachts.

Scheduled for launch in November 2025, the hull, superstructure, and deck are completed and fully faired, awaiting pre-paint treatment at the shipyard in Ameglia near La Spezia, Italy. The outboard engines are, ready for installation.

The onboard are being installed and the engine room is 80% complete. The interiors, initially developed using a mock-up, are now being assembled. The side terraces have been installed and are fully operational, awaiting final finishing.
