During a successful sales period over the past few weeks, Benetti has announced the signing of several new-build projects, chief of which being the sale of a second unit in the all-new 50m Benetti B.Now line. The first hull was sold to a Middle Eastern client following the 2018 Monaco Yacht Show and both units are expected to be completed in 2021.
Designed by RWD, the B.Now line of yachts ranging from 50 to 68 metres in length are defined by their short delivery times, high level of customisation and impressive accommodation arrangement options. In the case of the 50-metre version, clients are offered a 6-cabin, 12-guest layout with an additional six crew cabins for up to 10 permanent staff. Benetti’s newly developed construction methods reduce build time of these steel and aluminium projects while delivering a bespoke service with contemporary design by one of the industry’s leading studios. 
RWD has designed a style that is completely new to the Italian builder and stands out with its near-vertical bow, elongated profile and innovative main deck aft setup where guests get to relax at a waterside beach club with a large pool as an extension of the aft deck. 
The elegant tri-deck setup features a large semi-enclosed sundeck, private foredeck area for the owner and an alfresco dining lounge on the upper deck aft.
No further details of the sub-500 GT vessel have been released.
