Custom Line's New 128-Footer Settles the Oldest Argument on the Florida Coast: Inside or Out

Custom Line has produced the first of its Saetta 128, a 128-foot planing yacht whose upper salon can be thrown open to the air in its entirety. For the builder, the boat marks a stretch beyond what its planing range had attempted before. On this coast, the appeal is immediate. Palm Beach keeps the glass shut and the thermostat low, Naples wants the Gulf breeze across the table, and Miami would prefer both, depending on the hour. An upper deck that shifts from sealed room to open terrace on command ends that discussion before it starts. Whoever first steps aboard will head straight for that deck, and then not come back down.
