Benetti B.NOW 67M Oasis Deck — 220 Feet Means More Space Than Most Hotels

“




The B.NOW 67M represents Benetti’s most refined execution of the Oasis Deck concept. The hybrid propulsion system is not a gimmick. It’s a functional upgrade that reduces operating costs and improves onboard comfort. The E-Mode system allows for generator-free operation in harbor, which matters when you’re anchored in noise-restricted zones or simply want a quiet evening on deck. The fuel savings are real. Over 1,000 hours of operation annually, you’re looking at $200,000 to $300,000 in reduced fuel costs. That’s a 5 to 6 percent reduction in total operating expenses.

This yacht is for the owner who has already owned a 150-footer and realized they need more space, not more complexity. The layout is designed for families or groups who actually use the boat. Seven guest cabins. A full-beam owner’s suite with a private deck. A main salon that opens completely to the aft deck. The Oasis Deck itself, which expands from 36 feet to nearly 50 feet wide when deployed. You’re not fighting for space. You’re choosing which space you want. This is not a yacht for the owner who wants to impress other yacht owners. It’s for the owner who wants to disappear for two weeks with family and come back rested.

The resale market for Benetti yachts in this size range is stable. The brand has 150 years of history. The build quality is documented. The B.NOW series has won multiple design awards, including the 2023 World Yachts Trophy. If you maintain the yacht properly and don’t over-customize, you’ll recover 60 to 70 percent of your purchase price after five years. That’s better than most superyachts. The hybrid system will also age better than diesel-only propulsion as environmental regulations tighten in European and Caribbean waters. Maintenance costs are higher than a comparable Feadship or Lurssen, but lower than most Italian builders. Budget $800,000 to $1 million annually for maintenance, refit, and unexpected repairs. The crew requirement is 13 to 17 depending on how you use the boat. If you’re on board 60 to 90 days a year, you can reduce crew size and cut costs. But this is not a yacht you run with a skeleton crew.”
