Italian Benetti Yachts has launched its new 67-mere yacht in B.Now series offering a shorter delivery time
As a comparison, it took the shipyard three years to create the first Benetti B.Now 67M christened Iryna, delivered in April 2025, which is quite fast for such a large and complicated vessel. The exterior design of the B.Now 67M series is owed to British RWD studio. The interior of each unit is supposed to be different. This time, it was designed by Benetti in-house team in collaboration with Sinot Yacht Architecture & Design. The FB287 has not been christened yet: after the launching ceremony, she will move to the final outfitting stage and undergo sea trials, before she is delivered to her owner in the summer of 2025.
The FB287 is another illustration of how flexible the Benetti B.Now platform can be. The yacht features numerous elements created in accordance with the owner’s requests. The marble and glass staircase, the rectangular elevator and even the pools are all custom-made. Among the personalized pools there is a panoramic infinity pool on Oasis Deck aft, a jacuzzi on the hidden observation deck at the very top, and a decorative 40-centimetre-deep reflecting pool with a waterfall effect on the owner’s deck. By the way, the entire upper deck is dedicated to the owner, offering a private saloon and an office in addition to the owner’s cabin. There is also a gym, a spa with a sauna, a hammam, a massage room and an amazing main deck saloon with a grand piano.
As for the interior, the designers had quite a challenging task. The original concepts developed for the B.Now 67M model feature light colours and natural materials, while the FB287 owner requested something completely different, so the design team had to think of how to combine the light, beach house atmosphere with the luxurious and heavy Gatsby style, featuring dark wood panels, lacquered finishes and contrasting tones. As a result, a compromise was found: a less traditional interior style featuring woods like sycamore, ebony, wenge, ziricote and macassar, as well as numerous contemporary style details.
