Last week, on a fresh winter morning, Benetti launched its latest full-custom superyacht FB283 and she hit the water as the 33rd partnership between Benetti and designer Giorgio Cassetta who created the exterior and interior design.
Naval architecture is by Van Oosanen and is the first Benetti project to use their fast-displacement hull form (FDHF). The technology allows optimum energy efficiency when travelling at her top speed of 21 knots. At her cruising speed of 12 knots she has a range of 4,500 nautical miles.
The owners requested a quiet, fast, long range vessel with a family-oriented layout and both the interior and exterior deliver sociable spaces, while the decks have plenty of water toy and tender storage plus a touch and go helipad on the bow. Construction since her inception in 2020 has been challenging, but she was finished on time and awaits delivery to her proud owner.
We look forward to hearing news of her naming in due course.
