The Italian yacht and cruiser brand was established based on West Naval Tech, a shipyard specializing in the construction of commercial aluminum vessels as well as the production of components for superyachts.
</p>
<p>
The 14-meter cruiser Forte 47, with its aluminum hull, features a vertical bow and a minimalist exterior. The hardtop covers more than half of the vessel's length. Its configuration can be easily adapted to the client’s brief. Two terraces fold down, not at the stern as has become standard today, but on either side of the cockpit. The semi-walkaround deck design — with side passages only on the port side — frees up interior space, allowing for a beam-to-beam superstructure.
</p>
<p>
The Forte 47 is available in an open Gran Turismo version with three Mercury V12 outboard engines, each delivering 600 hp, or in a closed version with panoramic glazing and two Volvo Penta IPS D8-800 inboard engines.

The lower deck is equipped with two spacious cabins and two full-sized bathrooms with shower cabins.
