Designed by Giorgio M. Cassetta, the RAW 105 boasts a 5,000-nautical-mile range and innovative features like a panoramic swim platform and year-round enclosed cockpit. It’s a perfect choice for those seeking a versatile yacht for both remote journeys and luxurious Mediterranean escapes.
The first owner of the RAW 105 initially purchased the RAW 102 but opted for the larger model to ensure their technical and design requirements were met. The RAW 105 retains many hallmark features of the series, including space for two 5-meter tenders, drone and helicopter landing capabilities, and the relocation of ventilation trunks to maximize interior space. Its main deck cockpit, enclosed with floor-to-ceiling glass doors, ensures comfort in all weather conditions, while the aft deck provides shaded and versatile outdoor spaces.
Exceptional Design for Global Adventures
The RAW 105 retains the hallmark features of the RAW series, designed for adventurous, autonomous cruising. It includes space for two 5-meter tenders within the bow, drone and helicopter landing capabilities, and an innovative swim platform styled as a panoramic balcony. A fold-down section of the bulwark facilitates easy water access, enhancing the vessel’s utility for aquatic activities.
The yacht’s main deck cockpit is enclosed by floor-to-ceiling glass doors, creating a versatile space suitable for all weather conditions. This area transitions smoothly into a shaded aft deck, thanks to an overhang from the upper deck, ensuring comfort in varying climates. With a range exceeding 5,000 nautical miles, the RAW 105 is ideal for extended ocean voyages and secluded Mediterranean retreats.
I was looking for a sturdy, reliable, and compact vessel that would allow my family to explore both the most remote corners of the ocean and the countless wonderful coves that the Mediterranean is full of.
Cantiere delle Marche's focus on functionality is evident in features such as the relocation of ventilation trunks to the exterior, optimizing interior space, and allowing for expansive, unobstructed glass views. The yacht’s sturdy bow design enhances seaworthiness as well as provides sheltered storage for sizeable tenders - a notable feature for a yacht of this length.
The interior, while yet to be fully revealed, is expected to incorporate raw, natural materials, echoing the series’ adherence to rugged luxury. Each design decision prioritizes comfort, durability, and the ability to support long-term exploration.
