Benetti has introduced the 50-meter custom superyacht FB615, a bespoke addition to its B.Now 50M series featuring the innovative Oasis Deck® design. Developed in partnership with British design studio RWD, this marks RWD’s first full exterior and interior design collaboration for the B.Now line.
Crafted around the owner’s unique lifestyle and preferences, the yacht’s creation involved close collaboration with Burgess, who represented the client throughout the process. Daniela Petrozzi, Benetti’s Sales Director, highlighted the teamwork behind the project: “Together with RWD, whose deep understanding of the B.Now philosophy made them the ideal partner, including interior design, we created a yacht that exceeds the Owner’s expectations.”
Barry Gray, Technical Representative at Burgess, praised the design’s resonance with modern yacht buyers, saying, “The success of the B.Now series reflects how this RWD design meets the desires and needs of today’s clients. It’s been a pleasure working with our discerning client and the renowned Italian shipbuilder Benetti.”
The interior design, initiated two years ago, emphasizes flexible spaces that blend functionality with personal style. The main deck integrates smoothly with the Oasis Deck®, pool, and fold-down terraces, enhancing the indoor-outdoor living experience.
Lead designer Amy Whitaker of RWD said, “Designing FB615’s interiors was an exciting journey. The collaboration with clients and Benetti allowed us to create a unique, evolving space that acts as a canvas for future artwork and decorative pieces.”
Scheduled for delivery this summer, FB615 reinforces Benetti’s leadership in the custom superyacht market, catering to owners seeking highly personalized vessels.
