Benetti Yachts will make a notable appearance at the Cannes Yachting Festival 2024, showcasing three models from its renowned GRP families. From 10 to 15 September, the shipyard will showcase two Oasis series units, measuring 34 and 40 metres, and a 37-metre Motopanfilo, each representing the brand’s focus on luxury, comfort and innovative design. BO116The centrepiece of Benetti’s exhibition will be the BO116, a 40m Oasis yacht, with exterior design by RWD and interiors by Bonetti & Kozerski. The BO116’s design focuses on on-board wellbeing, with a notable feature: the Oasis Deck®, which transforms the beach area into a terrace with stunning sea views. This model also includes a wellness cabin, replacing the traditional gym, and a multifunctional shower in the owner’s suite that doubles as a Turkish bath. For socialising and entertaining, the sun deck has been fitted with a special lighting system and a DJ console. The BO116 can accommodate up to 12 guests in five cabins and is powered by twin MAN V12-1400 engines, enabling a cruising speed of 11 knots and a top speed of 17 knots. Also on display will be the 34m Oasis, known for its distinctive design that prioritises outdoor living. With 22 units sold to date, this model features exterior lines by RWD and interior design by Bonetti & Kozerski. The yacht offers numerous spaces designed for relaxation and entertainment, including an aft swimming pool, the Oasis Deck® and a spacious sundeck, all designed to enhance the outdoor experience. The third model, the BMP002, is a 37-metre Motopanfilo, a displacement yacht inspired by Benetti’s classic navettas of the 1960s. Designed by Francesco Struglia in collaboration with Benetti, the yacht’s exterior combines a vintage aesthetic with modern design elements. The interiors, by Lazzarini Pickering Architetti, combine contemporary style with classic elegance, catering to the tastes of modern yacht owners. The BMP002 can accommodate up to 10 guests in five cabins, including a master cabin on the main deck. Founded in 1873, Benetti is the oldest Italian shipyard specialising in luxury yachts.
