Monaco Yacht Show 2023 News

More video footage from the show.

The new Swan 100 is the latest to be added to the Nautor Swan lineup and this new model was announced at the Monaco Yacht Show (MYS). Of course there have been Swan 100's before but this is a new updated one revealed at the show. The design has really been inspired by previous Swan Maxis and is penned by German Frers. Internally the first hull will have a four cabin layout with a master suite, VIP suite and two other guest cabins. There will be other layouts offered to customers. The interior is penned by Misa Poggie. The yard is also working on their future flagship Swan 148.

Custom Line has unveiled a new yacht at the Monaco Yacht Show (MYS). The Navetta 38 is the latest addition to their model lineup. The yard suggests that the Navetta 38 is replacing the Navetta 37. Fold-down bulwarks make their way on to the Navetta 38 which grosses the beach area further. The sun deck is also sizable for a yacht these dimensions boasting approximately 70 square meters of space stretching around 15-meters in length -remember the vessel is 38-meters so this is considerable gifting of real estate to the sun deck-. The Navetta range is constantly growing with the models including the Navetta 30, Navetta 33, the new Navetta 38, Navetta 42 and there is also now a Navetta 50 which will serve as the flagship of the Navetta line. First hull of the 38 is already under construction with the second hull already sold to a customer. The first hull is due for completion in 2024.

Another recent announcement from the show and is with regards to a new concept that Benetti unveiled. It is called Project LIFE and features an exterior by Espen Oeino (I believe this is a first-time collaboration with Benetti) and an interior by Zuretti. It is a fully-custom project of 85-meters that is envisioned to have diesel-electric propulsion. With the direction that yacht fuel is going in, there are expected to be using HVO fuel. Photovoltaics are also added to some of the upper surfaces of the vessel. Special features onboard include a helipad on the bow, large pool on the aft main deck, large beach club on the aft lower deck, main midships situated tender garage and supplemental garage in the bow. Five-deck layout is available for the guests onboard.

Speaking of Benetti, they are at the show, showing off the B. Now 50 models, they have 2 units from that model at MYS. The brand presents the world premiere of two models of B.Now 50M, the family of steel mega yachts whose innovative and versatile DNA has been engineered for long cruises with an at-home feel: "FantaSea" and "Alunya", the latter fitted with the revolutionary Oasis Deck®.

M/Y “FANTASEA” (B.NOW 50M)

With its spacious 36-square-metre beach club, a stern pool on the Main Deck and a forward Jacuzzi on the Sun Deck, this superyacht is an invitation to enjoy outdoor life. Unlike its predecessors, the yacht has a comfortable steam room in the beach area for total relaxation. All the outdoor furnishings are made to measure to the owner’s specifications, while the yacht’s large glass doors produce the feeling of indoor-outdoor continuity. The interiors, designed by Benetti’s Interior Style Department, are modern spaces with top quality ceramic finishes.

M/Y “ALUNYA” (B.NOW 50M)

Another Benetti eye-catcher at the Monaco Show will be “Alunya”. This 50-metre yacht is the second model in the B.Now family to feature the Oasis Deck™, the solution with which Benetti has redefined the traditional stern swim platform with hydraulically operated terraces that open out across the entire breadth of the deck to offer a formidable 110-square-metre beach club. The Oasis Deck™ ensures an unimpeded 270° view astern. The beach area also has a glass-walled infinity pool and numerous conviviality spaces.

The Veranda DECK™ concept was also revealed at the Monaco Yacht Show (MYS). The yachting world was revolutionized by the Oasis Deck®, a totally innovative concept of the stern beach area and, today, Benetti and RWD announce a new milestone, the Veranda Deck, the reinterpretation of the Main Deck lounge. A space that has seen almost no change in the past fifty years and has thus fallen behind, increasingly avoided due to its excessive formality. The new generation of owners love contact with the outdoors, so the new "Veranda Deck" opens the space completely on three sides, creating a continuous environment between the lounge and the stern. Interiors that transform into exteriors and vice versa provide a new place to enjoy boundless views and contact with the surrounding world. This new concept will be proposed for the first time on the Motopanfilo 45M, a steel project with which Benetti rediscovers the origins of the iconic yachts of the Sixties that made yachting history, with memories of rounded sterns and timeless impact. The exteriors are designed by RWD. Lazzarini Pickering Architetti envisioned the Interior Design and Exterior Deck Design of the 45M in continuity with the 37M, building on their meticulous study of the spaces.

Although the concept for the Benetti Project ORO was released at the last Monaco Yacht Show (MYS), the yard took the opportunity to reveal more information relating to the interior at this year's show that recently concluded on the 30th of September. Project ORO is envisioned to have an internal volume of around 2,500 GT.
