The sixth unit of Benetti's popular Oasis 40M series has hit the water at the Italian yard's Livorno facility.
Christened Vicious Rumour III, the yacht’s striking exterior design comes from British studio RWD, while interiors come courtesy of New York-based Bonetti / Kozerski architecture.
The Oasis 40M is characterised by a wide-open aft deck with waterfront lounge area complete with a dip pool and unfolding bulwarks. Accommodation is offered for ten guests in five cabins, and she is expected to reach top speeds of 16 knots during her upcoming sea trials.
Delivery is scheduled for this year, and according to BOATPro data there are two other Oasis 40M models also due to be handed over to their owners in 2022.
With at least 18 units sold, the Oasis model has proved popular for the Italian yard and the Oasis is now offered in a more compact 34M size.
