VENTI is a high-performance International One Metre racing yacht designed by Ceccarelli Yacht Design, developed to combine speed, balance and control across the full range of IOM racing conditions.
The design was conceived as a complete and versatile racing platform, capable of delivering strong performance in light, medium and heavy air. Particular attention was given to hull efficiency, dynamic stability, appendage balance and ease of trim, with the aim of creating a boat that is fast, precise and consistent on the racecourse.
VENTI’s hull lines are the result of a refined development process focused on reducing resistance, maintaining clean water flow and ensuring excellent acceleration after tacks and manoeuvres. The boat is powerful when required, yet remains responsive and easy to handle, giving the skipper a high level of confidence both in tactical situations and in straight-line speed.
Since its debut, VENTI has established itself as one of the most competitive modern IOM designs, achieving major results in national and international events and confirming the strength of Ceccarelli Yacht Design’s approach to radio-controlled racing yacht design.
