The Boat is a 2022 Italian thriller film directed by Alessio Liguori [2] and starring Marco Bocci, Diane Fleri, and Filippo Nigro. [3] [4] [5]
Three young wealthy couples decide to spend an unforgettable weekend on a luxury yacht in the Mediterranean Sea. However, the long-awaited cruise quickly turns into a real nightmare for them. After the party, the passengers wake up in the middle of the open sea—just to find out that the fuel, food, life raft, and water have mysteriously disappeared from their yacht. Anchors, control systems, radio, and the desalination plant are not functionable. As the yacht keeps on drifting away from the shore, they soon hear an unknown voice on the walkie-talkie, that starts a chilling psychological game. Fear for their lives awakens the darkest sides in everyone, and the passengers have to discover a terrible truth from the past that they would like to forget. [6] [7]

To be termed a yacht, as opposed to a boat, such a pleasure vessel is likely to be at least 33 feet (10 m) in length and may have been judged to have good aesthetic qualities.
