The sixth hull of the 36.8-metre Benetti Motopanfilo motor yacht series has been launched from the yard’s Viareggio facility. Known provisionally as BMP007, delivery is scheduled for March 2024.
Her classic exterior lines are meant to resemble the Navetta yachts of the sixties, designed by Francesco Struglia in collaboration with the yard. Meanwhile, the interior has been penned by Lazzarini Pickering Architects.
Standout features include a spacious beach club and custom-made furniture by Pickering found on the sundeck. The colour palette consists of nautical whites and blues, while the Loro Piana fabrics and use of malachite "add another layer of luxe", according to the shipyard. Accommodation is for up to 10 guests across five cabins. There is additional space for up to seven crew members.
A Selective Catalyst Reduction (SCR) system has been integrated to align with IMO Tier III regulations. Powered by a pair of MAN V12 engines, the yacht can reach up to 17 knots.
At the Monaco Yacht Show 2023, Benetti announced a new flagship and larger sibling: the Motopanfilo 45M.
