Eco-conscious cruising

Adopting more eco-conscious practices should be everyone’s responsibility, no matter what industry. We have therefore started taking measures to reduce our impact on the environment and the oceans that we operate in. From eco-conscious products to offsetting our carbon footprint, we are taking meaningful transitional actions towards a more sustainable future in the yachting industry.

Eco-friendly products:

As part of our commitment to be more environmentally friendly, we provide eco-conscious products for our charter guests to enjoy on board and we also only clean our vessels with low-impact detergents.

Fuel-efficient cruising:

Fuel-efficient cruising is not only beneficial from a cost perspective, but it also reduces your charter’s carbon footprint.

We have recorded the fuel consumption of both of our flagship vessels below. We recommend a fuel-efficient cruising speed of 7 knots for M/Y NOI and 20-25 knots for M/Y Vanquish.

Offsetting your carbon footprint:

As of 2022, we will be giving our charter guests the option to offset the carbon footprint of their charter. We will be partnering with Yacht Carbon Offset, a carbon calculator and offsetting service specialising in boats, to calculate the carbon footprint of each charter and to find ways to offset it by investing in carefully selected carbon reduction projects. 

It doesn’t stop there:

We are proud to be Riva’s exclusive distributor in Malta, not only because we are able to represent the exceptional legacy of a truly unique brand, but also because of their commitment to sustainability.

As Alberto Galassi, CEO of Ferretti Group, said: “We were the first company in the industry to release a sustainability report in 2019. We were the first to receive the MTU power system hybrid propulsion system for Custom Line – it’s an exclusive agreement we had with them in the beginning. Soon we will be developing a fuel cell together with a Canadian company that belongs to our shareholder.”

Riva is currently working on the first-ever electric Riva, a much-anticipated milestone that will mark the beginnings of a new and more sustainable era.
