The Greek word “néos” means “new, young, fresh”, and according to the shipyard, the concept is meant for the young generation of owners, who don’t want another conventional boat, but expect a new philosophy, a smart, technological yacht that breaks all stereotypes
The new concept by the Italian shipyard was inspired by the proportions and silence of sailing yachts. The exterior design was made most natural and simple, boasting clean, sleek lines owed to Malcolm McKeon Yacht Design, known for its sailing boats.
“B.Neos represents a new approach that looks ahead. We chose a leading designer from the sailing segment to bring the sleek proportions of sailing yachts to a motor yacht, avoiding the pursuit of volume at any cost. From sailing, B.Neos also inherits the pleasure of silence at anchor, made possible by hybrid technology and an essential approach to interiors, distinct from the redundant opulence seen oftentimes in certain yachting segments,” said Giovanna Vitelli, Chair of the Azimut|Benetti Group.
It is interesting to note that hybrid propulsion is offered as standard for the B.Neos, and the seeming simplicity actually conceals a number of advanced technological innovations.
The interior design entrusted to Francesca Muzio and her FM Architettura features seamless transitions from space to space, well thought-out layouts and minimalist, but inviting interiors.
As opposed to the usual pursuit of more volume, the B.Neos focuses on intelligent distribution of space, which will give the owner more direct and functional experience instead of excessive and superfluous.
“The new motor yacht is designed for those who embrace the essential as a way of life at sea, seeking elegance and understated luxury combined with efficient design and a renewed appreciation of authenticity as the truest form of exclusivity”, says the official Benetti press release.
