Benetti B.Now 50M (2021) in vendita in Livorno, Tuscany, Italia

English

This 164' BENETTI B.NOW 50M Superyacht for sale, is a displacement tri-deck motor yacht with qualities that set her apart from any other yacht. Uniting modernity, innovation and functionality, she combines Benetti’s craftsmanship, design know-how and construction quality to define new paradigms that go beyond classic yacht design.

Her sinuous, dynamic lines of the steel hull and aluminium superstructure follow the streamlined contours of the large windows and bring the four decks together to form a harmonious whole. The hull designed by P.L.A.N.A., working with the Azimut|Benetti Research & Development Department, has lines as powerful as they are sleek and sporty.

The UK-based firm RWD, a top name in international marine design, has successfully pointed up the openness of the spaces by ensuring continuity along the decks, which offer unbroken visual contact with the water from bow to stern.

At notable 499 gross tons, the spaces on board this BENETTI B.NOW 50M aim to create a convivial mood, with seamless continuity between interiors and exteriors thanks to the generous stern terraces that accentuate the feeling of contact with the water.

Her lower deck is redefined by the beach area, a 30-square-metre space accessed both through a gullwing hatch on the starboard side and from the main deck stairway. This terrace at the water’s edge has a pool with clear glazing and light effects, a sauna, a service area complete with shower, and a space for relaxing in the open air. The space can be extended still further by opening a side platform on which to create another open-air area for socialising.

The main deck has a spacious living area aft and a full lounge inside that points up continuity between indoors and outdoors. The Master’s suite is forward, with a private balcony, a large dressing room and a luggage area in which every detail is personalised.

The four guest cabins are amidships and separated from the crew quarters in the bow area, which provide four twin cabins for crew members, a single for the captain, laundry and storage rooms and the crew mess.

In total, the BENETTI B.NOW can comfortably accommodate in contemporary Italian style 10 guests in 5 en-suite staterooms, with 9 crew waiting for their every need.

Forward of the main deck her large lateral-launching tender garage can house a 6.25 metre tender, a jet ski, a rescue boat and four Seabobs.

The welcoming upper deck contains relaxation areas, sunbeds aft and an outdoor dining area that can be converted into a media room. A sliding door gives access to the interior lounge and from there to the gym room. The ship office and wheelhouse forward have a separate entrance and are reserved for the Captain.

The large sundeck has a dining area with a media space, a relaxation zone and a bar counter on the foredeck from which to enjoy an impressive view of the sea in total privacy.

Indoors, the claddings and ceiling panels are made with the finest varieties of wood, such as silk-coloured frisé maple and smoked oak with its contrasting dark shades. In harmony with the sophistication of the wood, the ceilings are clad in ivory leather tanned using natural processes, while the recesses are treated with satin-finish sheet palladium, the most precious metal in the platinum family. This consistency is reflected in the use of ecology stones in the furnishings. The colourways in each setting play on ivory, brick and moka nuances, from the walls to the dark honey coloured silk and bamboo carpet. Adding personality to the yacht are various nautically themed works of art provided by the owner, including a series of valuable maps.

The interiors embody all Benetti’s traditional craftsmanship and quality, as well as being enriched by sophisticated detailing. Just like Benetti, Visionnaire (the interior designer) has produced a tailored project tailored to the clients’ desires, creating a modern ambience with unique furnishings, enhanced by full-height windows perfectly incorporated into the dynamic profile of the yacht’s hull. Large glass doors create a strong sense of continuity between the outdoor and indoor spaces.

Two interior stairways ensure privacy on board, one reserved for the owner and guests and the other for the crew, with completely separated flows that also ensure smooth operating functionality. Guests can also use a lift serving the lower, main and upper decks.

Powered by twin 1400 Hp MAN Diesel engines, the yacht has a top speed of 15 knots and an impressive range of 4500 nautical miles, at her cruise speed of 12 knots, without stopping to refuel.

Thanks to Benetti’s advanced construction technology, the Italian “House of Yachting”, has delivered this BENETTI B.NOW 50M with a construction quality equivalent to any famous northern European yard.
