In luxury yachting, few names resonate as powerfully as Benetti Yachts, the Italian superyacht builder renowned for its exquisite craftsmanship and innovative designs. Among its fleet, the Benetti Tradition Series 100′ Trideck stands out as an excellent platform for deck space and functionality. Designed by the acclaimed Francois Zuretti and Stefano Righini, Benetti Yacht “BW” reflects a harmony of contemporary style and functional elegance. Built in 2007, this motor yacht asserts its stature as the largest 100-footer on the waters, a claim underpinned by its expansive tri-deck design that offers numerous vantage points to appreciate both the vessel and the vistas it navigates.
The interior of luxury yacht BW underwent a complete redesign and refit during 2020 and 2021/22, transforming it into a bastion of modern luxury. Every piece of furniture and soft goods has been replaced, alongside upgrades to the audio-visual equipment, ensuring that no detail was overlooked in elevating the yacht’s comfort and style. The result is an elegant, contemporary space that invites relaxation and enjoyment. Benetti yacht BW boasts spacious accommodations for up to eight guests across four staterooms, each a testament to the yacht’s thoughtful design and attention to comfort. The on-deck master stateroom offers breathtaking 180-degree views and unparalleled privacy, while the full-beam VIP stateroom features an ensuite and private access, setting a new standard for luxury at sea. The two additional guest staterooms offer flexible bedding arrangements, ensuring comfort for all aboard.
Beyond its stunning aesthetics, “BW” is equipped with up-to-date machinery and systems, including reliable C18 main engines that have only 3,200 hours since a major overhaul. This commitment to performance and maintenance guarantees a smooth and reliable cruising experience.
Key features such as up-to-date ABS Classification, potential for charter use, updated interior and exterior décor, spacious public spaces across three decks, excellent accommodations, cutting-edge entertainment systems, and at-rest/zero-speed stabilizers for ultimate comfort. This positions Benetti yacht BW as a must-see for those considering a 100 ft motor yacht. The updated crew quarters for six further ensure that every journey aboard “BW” is as seamless for the crew as it is luxurious for the guests.
Overall, Benetti yacht BW is a must-see for the discerning buyer in search of a 100 ft luxury yacht with an on-deck owner’s stateroom. Whether as a private haven or a charter vessel, it offers an unparalleled maritime experience, making it a true masterpiece of the Benetti Tradition Series.
