Benetti set a personal best
with three large-yacht launches in three days in early July. The company
launched Hull No. 9 of the Vision series, the 45-meter Geanelle,
for an American client. The yacht, conceived for private use and for charter in
the Med or the Caribbean, is similar in many ways to the seventh Vision,
launched in 2006, but she contains some significant innovations that make her
completely wheelchair-accessible. Geanelle features a system of
electric footboards, a lift that reaches the sun deck from the lower deck and
automatic doors. American Susanne Skaff of the Skaff Group decorated the yacht’s
François Zuretti-designed interior. Anigre and eucalyptus with straight-grain
finish are present in every room.
The second of the triad is Annaeva, a
56-meter motor yacht built for a Russian client who wanted a platform aboard
which he could relax and remain connected with his business. Featuring another
Zuretti interior, Annaeva exhibits a unique décor for
each onboard area. A wide variety of stone was used on the boat along with
mahogany and maple joinery. The owner’s cabin was designed with a Bang &
Olufsen home theater system with a 65-inch screen. (Click images to enlarge)
Mylo, a 37-meter Benetti Classic, rounds
out the group. The young owners chose to reinterpret the Zuretti interior in a
minimalist and modern style with extensive use of Corian. Gray parquet flooring
is used throughout the yacht. The loose furniture was designed in glossy white
by Modenature. Her interior and exterior lines are clean and simple in keeping
with the minimalist style.
