At Milan Design Week, where furniture and fashion usually take centre stage, Ferrari has unveiled its freshly liveried Hypersail, a ground-breaking 100-foot flying ocean monohull.
Hypersail is Ferrari’s most ambitious step yet beyond asphalt, a fully foiling yacht designed to ‘fly’ above the water on three points of contact, using a canting keel foil, rudder foil and alternating lateral foils.
Ferrari says Hypersail is as much a research and development project as it is a vessel; a floating test bed for the future of performance engineering.
Hypersail is a collaboration between its own engineering teams, leading naval architect Guillaume Verdier, and offshore racing specialists.
The concept is impressive. Not only is it the first full-foiling monohull of its size, it’s also designed to operate entirely without fossil fuels, relying instead on a combination of solar, wind and kinetic energy.
Solar panels are integrated into the deck and hull sides, their placement determined by detailed studies of solar exposure during long ocean passages. Almost invisible, they are walkable, textured for grip, and seamlessly incorporated into the yacht’s structure.

Ferrari Design Studio and its inspirations
Hypersail hails from the Ferrari Design Studio, under the direction of Flavio Manzoni (pictured), working alongside Ferrari’s engineering team, led by Matteo Lanzavecchia, and Verdier’s naval architecture expertise.
The result is a silhouette that feels unmistakably Ferrari, even at sea. The deck and coachroof carry visual cues from the Ferrari 499P, the Le Mans endurance hypercar .
The livery combines a new carbon-derived tone, Grigio Hypersail, with the historic Giallo Fly, a shade of yellow inspired by driver Luigi Musso, famous for his yellow helmet.
Here it provides a vivid counterpoint to the exposed carbon fibre. It’s a palette that recalls classic models like the Ferrari 512 BB while nodding to modern icons such as LaFerrari and the F80.
The elongated ‘F’ motif on the sail echoes recent Ferrari design language, linking the Hypersail visually to the brand’s Formula 1 and lifestyle projects.
During Design Week, Hypersail is being showcased at the Ferrari Flagship Store in Milan, alongside a lighthouse-inspired installation on the Highline Milano terrace, overlooking Piazza del Duomo.
