The Aprea Milano Faraglione 10 NATANTE is a classic Italian open gozzo designed for day cruising and coastal exploration. Its sleek 9.98-meter hull, 3.45-meter beam, and 1.03-meter draft provide a stable platform with excellent seaworthiness. The open layout emphasizes simplicity and speed, making it ideal for sunny Mediterranean days, though it lacks the shelter and amenities needed for overnight trips.

On the water, the boat excels with twin 300 HP VM Motori MD706LH engines, delivering a maximum speed of 23 knots and a comfortable cruise of 19 knots. The 860-liter fuel capacity supports long-range day excursions, while the B-class offshore certification ensures reliability in rougher conditions. Handling is responsive and confident, even in choppy waters, thanks to its well-balanced hull design.

Comfort is limited by the open design and single cabin with only two sleeping positions and one bathroom. There is no galley or kitchen, making it unsuitable for extended stays. However, the spacious cockpit and dinette area provide ample room for socializing during day trips. At €120,000, the Faraglione 10 offers solid value for buyers seeking a fast, durable gozzo for coastal cruising, though those prioritizing comfort or overnight capability may need to consider alternatives.
