Y

Benetti handed over Y in May 2025, and she remains under the yard's warranty, delivered with an extensive list of options already fitted rather than left for a new owner to add. Her open sea terrace at the stern is a private space where guests reach the water directly rather than looking down on it from a higher deck.

Build and provenance

RWD designed her exterior for Benetti, and the New York studio Bonetti Kozerski Architecture handled the interior, with high ceilings and large glazed surfaces that keep the saloons open rather than partitioned. At 34 metres and 269 gross tonnes, Y carries genuine volume for a yacht built to a production design rather than a one-off commission.

Layout and accommodation

Ten guests sleep in four cabins, looked after by a crew of seven, a ratio that means real attentiveness rather than a crew stretched thin across a long season. The open-plan saloons and cabins that Bonetti Kozerski designed are free of unnecessary partitions, so the sea view most owners buy a yacht like this for reaches further into the room.

Performance and engineering

Two 1,380 hp MTU 10V 2000 M86 engines give her a 14-knot cruise and a 16-knot top speed, a displacement pace built for comfortable point-to-point passages rather than short sprints. At a 7.7-metre beam and a 2.03-metre draught, she carries the stability of her width into anchorages a deeper-draught yacht would have to avoid.

Where she lies and how to see her

Y lies in Tivat, Montenegro, ready for viewing now that she has arrived from the yard. We arrange each viewing and accompany you to it, and survey and sea trial follow once your offer on her is accepted.
