Baudouin Marine Propulsion for the Ferretti Yachts 580
The Ferretti Yachts 580 belongs to the Ferretti Flybridge fleet and stands as an emblem of modern luxury.
Designed for an intimate and comfortable experience at sea, the Ferretti Yachts 580 combines refined Italian yacht design, premium onboard comfort and strong propulsion performance.
Through its Italian distributor Vitelli SRL, Moteurs Baudouin supplies two 6F21 propulsion engines and ZF 500-1 gearboxes for this 18.24-metre luxury yacht.
Capable of carrying up to 14 people in exceptional sound comfort, the Ferretti Yachts 580 benefits from Baudouin engines designed to support performance, reliability, compact integration and ease of maintenance.
The Ferretti Yachts 580 is powered by two Baudouin 6F21 marine propulsion engines.
Each engine develops 735 kW, or 985 HP, at 2300 rpm under P5 Light Duty rating.
This propulsion package provides the yacht with the power required for fast and comfortable cruising, while maintaining the reliability expected from a premium pleasure boat application.
The Baudouin 6F21 engines are recognized for their compactness, performance and ease of maintenance.
Their compact architecture allows easier integration into the yacht’s engine room, which is a critical advantage for both new builds and repowering projects.
The engines also support optimized maintenance planning, helping improve long-term performance while reducing operational costs.
With its Baudouin 6F21 propulsion package, the Ferretti Yachts 580 reaches a maximum speed of 32 knots and a cruising speed of 26 knots.
These performance levels are essential for long-distance cruising and premium yacht operation, where comfort, speed and reliability must work together.
The engines are paired with ZF 500-1 gearboxes with a 2.20:1 ratio, supporting efficient power transmission and smooth yacht operation.
This project was delivered through Vitelli SRL, Baudouin’s Italian distributor.
The collaboration between Moteurs Baudouin, Vitelli SRL and Ferretti Yachts highlights the connection between advanced marine engineering and luxury yacht design.
By supplying compact, high-performance propulsion engines adapted to the vessel’s requirements, Baudouin contributes to the Ferretti Yachts 580’s balance of comfort, speed and operational reliability.
The Ferretti Yachts 580 combines classic yacht-building expertise with modern technology and refined onboard experience.
Baudouin’s 6F21 engines support this positioning by delivering robust performance, compact integration and service-friendly design.
For pleasure boat applications, these qualities are essential to maintain reliability, reduce maintenance complexity and preserve the high comfort standards expected from a luxury yacht.
