When balance replaces excess. When technology fades into comfort. When silence becomes the ultimate luxury.
B.NEOS introduces a new way of experiencing life at sea. A 40-metre hybrid superyacht by Benetti, conceived not to impress on paper, but to redefine how it feels to live on board.
This is yachting stripped of noise, complication and excess — replaced by harmony, ease and emotional wellbeing.
A DIFFERENT MINDSET FOR MODERN YACHTING
B.NEOS is born from a shift in perspective. Inspired by the world of sailing and developed around hybrid propulsion, the project places comfort, balance and sustainability at its core.
Rather than focusing on raw performance figures, B.NEOS prioritises sensations: the quiet of movement, the fluidity of spaces, the pleasure of sharing time on board. It is a yacht designed to be lived in — effortlessly.
DESIGNED IN BALANCE
The exterior lines by Malcolm McKeon express restrained elegance and perfect proportion. The silhouette is sleek and timeless, favouring harmony over volume and visual calm over excess.
Interiors by Francesca Muzio (FM Architettura) reinterpret luxury through warmth and authenticity. Light-filled spaces, tactile materials and welcoming layouts replace monumentality. The result is an environment that feels intimate and lived-in, conceived around family life and shared moments rather than formal display.
THE SOUND OF SILENCE
Hybrid technology is the heart of B.NEOS.
In Hotel Mode, the yacht operates entirely on battery power, delivering up to five hours of daytime silence and eight hours at night. No engine noise, no vibrations, no generator hum — just the sound of the sea and uninterrupted comfort.
Battery-powered navigation allows silent departures from harbour, low-impact manoeuvres in protected marinas, and smooth mooring operations. Compared to yachts of similar size, B.NEOS reduces energy consumption by up to 30%, thanks to a purpose-built hybrid ecosystem.
Advanced onboard systems — from smart home automation to ultra-fast 5G and Starlink connectivity — operate invisibly in the background. Augmented reality and AI-driven monitoring allow remote diagnostics and predictive maintenance, ensuring reliability without burdening the owner.
CONTEMPORARY BY NATURE
Benetti’s ability to anticipate lifestyle trends is evident throughout B.NEOS. Following the success of the Oasis Deck® concept, the yacht introduces a radically reimagined layout.
By reducing technical volumes in the engine room by 30%, new living areas emerge — including the spectacular Sea Atrium, a double-height space with 2.4-metre ceilings and floor-to-ceiling glass. Teak flooring flows seamlessly from interior to exterior, visually connecting the main saloon, pool and aft deck.
The beach club evolves into a social hub: a place to read, relax, entertain and remain constantly connected to the sea.
At the centre of daily life is the Family Kitchen — an open, informal space designed for shared meals, relaxed breakfasts and spontaneous moments together. When needed, the dining area can be discreetly separated for more formal occasions.
THE OWNER’S PRIVATE HORIZON
By relocating the wheelhouse forward on the main deck, Benetti dedicates the entire upper deck to the owner.
The result is a private apartment with 270-degree panoramic views, a feature typically reserved for yachts over 60 metres. Direct access to a large private terrace creates an outdoor extension of the suite — ideal for breakfast, relaxation or working with one of the most inspiring views imaginable.
ENGINEERED FOR PEACE OF MIND
B.NEOS is not just a yacht, but a fully integrated ownership experience.
Benetti’s Peace of Mind programme offers preventive maintenance, extended warranties and crew training through a dedicated academy. An AI-powered operational platform shares real-time data with the shipyard, ensuring constant support wherever the yacht is cruising.
Through Yachtique, Benetti delivers a turnkey lifestyle solution: interiors, accessories, tableware, linens and water toys are curated and installed before delivery. All services converge into Yacht as a Service (YaaS) — a five-year, fully managed ownership model that removes complexity and enhances long-term value.
THE ESSENCE OF LIFE AT SEA
B.NEOS represents Benetti’s vision of contemporary yachting:
Silent. Simple. Intelligent.
