Italian yard Benetti has launched two superyachts in the space of two days at its Viareggio based yard.

The first was the sixth hull of Benetti’s Delfino 95 series, BD106, which hit the water on February 6. The 29 metre composite superyacht was previously sold to a Cypriot owner and has been designed by Giorgio M Cassetta.

The remaining guest accommodation of four double cabins sits on the lower deck. The bow area meanwhile is reserved for crew accommodation for a total of five crew in three cabins.
