Limited Edition Voyager Details
Spanning across four decks, notable yacht design details include a large infinity pool, sunbathing area and close connection to the beautiful sea views. The main deck houses the five cabins including four VIP cabins, and a full-beam master stateroom. The tender garage can house two jet skis, a 21ft tender, and a rescue boat.
The upper deck offers guests access to a large open-air lounge with ample space for seating and sunbathing spread across 80 sqm. The infinity pool is located here with access to another lounge area offering 360-degree views. While up on the bridge deck, located on the stern, you’ll find even more seating area options and a lounge complete with Hamptons-style veranda.
Yacht crew accommodation can be found on the lower deck with five cabins including the private captain’s cabin. There is an extra cabin below deck that can be replaced by a gym, sauna, or wellness area. The stern also provides ample extra storage for water toys or the ability to customize this into a beauty area and spa if the owner so wishes.
The Benetti team shares, “The extreme flexibility of the B.Yond Limited Edition’s layout, supported by a host of pre-engineered solutions that are one of this series’ strengths, makes it possible to redefine the existing spaces and adapt them as alternative hospitality areas to suit the owner and guests’ specific needs.”
The B.Yond Voyager model offers an E-Mode Hybrid propulsion system, developed in partnership with Siemens Energy, to optimize onboard energy.
With four innovative operating modes, including Full Electric, “this zero-emission cruising option allows the B.Yond Limited Edition to enter marine protected areas typically off-limits to motor yachts with diesel engines, offering a unique opportunity to explore ecologically sensitive areas while respecting the environment. Based on an average annual use of 1,000 hours (400 underway and the rest at anchor) fuel consumption and CO2 can be reduced by up to 24%, and NOx by a maximum of 85%.”
The B.Yond Limited Edition is available for 12 months with naval architecture and hull design by P.L.A.N.A. Design – Eng. Pierluigi Ausonio.
