Launch of first Benetti B.Now 50M Oasis Deck superyacht

By Nina Done 17 March 2023

Benetti have announced the launch of the first hull in their B.Now 50M Oasis Deck® series, also known as FB605, from their Livorno shipyard in Italy.

Showcasing classic “Made in Italy” craftsmanship that draws inspiration from the shipyard’s iconic canons, while embracing the characteristics of the owner’s unique vision and insight, the custom motor yacht offers up a bold exterior design, courtesy of the industry-renowned RWD, with a near-vertical bow and plenty of glazing to ensure she turns heads wherever she cruises. Designed to maximize her outdoor spaces, she offers her guests a wealth of relaxation and entertainment areas across all three decks.

Her chic interiors, devised by Benetti in close collaboration with her owner's team, showcase a clever chiaroscuro scheme, with contrasting light and dark colors establishing a harmonious rhythm underscored by the materials used on the walls, where curly maple wood panels are interspersed with printed leather inserts.

Elite designer brands have been harnessed to add an extra layer of luxury to her interiors, including Armani, Hermes and Lalique.

In terms of amenities, yacht FB605 will certainly impress. Highlights include a sun-kissed top deck with all the attendant luxuries you would usually find up here, including a Jacuzzi offering beautiful sea vistas, as well as sun loungers and a wet bar, with a fully-equipped gymnasium located on her upper deck.

However, the jewel in the crown is her tiered main deck replete with sumptuous seating areas and a corner bar, leading to a glass-fronted infinity pool with fold-down bulwarks maximizing this space. Steps give the impression of a cascading effect down to her wide swim platform for easy access into the waters and on to the yacht's toys.

Reportedly taking her design cues from the 107-meter Benetti yacht LANA, as well as Benetti's award-winning Oasis 34M design, superyacht FB605 is the first steel unit to introduce the Oasis Deck beach area solutions and will provide a luxurious platform for those lucky enough to be hosted on board. She can accommodate 12 guests across 6 staterooms, with additional space for up to ten crew.

Delivery is expected in the coming weeks, following the successful completion of sea trials. It is not expected that the yacht will be made available for charter once she’s been delivered to her owner.
