The 49.9-metre motor yacht Fantasea has been sold off-market and renamed Mine Games. Manuele Thiella of Royal Yacht International represented the seller in the deal, while Kitson Yachts represented the buyer.
Mine Games was delivered in 2023 by Italian shipyard Benetti, constructed in steel and aluminium to a design by RWD, with naval architecture by Pierluigi Ausonio PLANA. She marks the third hull from the yard's B.Now 50 model, which, according BOATPro, currently has a total of 20 hulls either in-build or delivered. According to the broker, this off-market deal marks the second sale of the 49.9-metre yacht in less than two years.
Accommodation on board is for up to 10 guests in five cabins, including a full-beam master suite on the main deck, complete with an office, his and hers bathrooms and a private deck space, and four guest cabins on the lower deck. There is an additional sixth cabin with a small double bed on the bridge deck, suitable for an extra member of staff. Meanwhile, there are quarters for a crew of 12.
In terms of living spaces, Mine Games has plenty to choose from. The main deck offers a "chic and sophisticated setting", with a grand C-shaped sofa and formal dining area forward. A large widescreen television is mounted on the ceiling and can be concealed when not in use. Upstairs, the upper deck skylounge is home to relaxed seating, a bar and another large television.
Mine Games' interior – designed in-house by Benetti – is adorned in a predominately cream colour scheme with coffee-coloured accents. Pale woods and textural soft furnishings add to the welcoming ambience throughout.
Mine Games has a "fully-glazed" aft with sliding glass doors – a showcase of the seamless flow of indoor-outdoor living that the B.Now 50 series is renowned for. Steps from the main deck aft lounge lead to the 36-square-metre beach club, which hosts a glass-fronted infinity pool, gym and hammam.
On the sundeck, there is a Jacuzzi, bar, sun loungers and gym equipment, while the upper deck offers guests a relaxed al fresco dining space. Mine Games also benefits from a large toy box, stored in the forward garage. With all of the aforementioned features on board, it comes as no surprise that the Benetti B.Now yacht is a charter favourite.
The motor yacht can reach top speeds of 15 knots, with a maximum range of 4,500 nautical miles, powered by MAN engines.
The asking price of Mine Games at the time of her sale is unknown. According to the broker, the Benetti motor yacht will continue to be available for charter with Royal Yacht International.
