Benetti prepare for an exciting few months as the first giga yacht, motor yacht FB277 emerges from her build shed. Escorted into daylight for the first time, the 107 metre vessel is now in the last stages before she hits the water.

YachtBuyer waits with high anticipation as the largest Benetti superyacht in history prepares to launch into Italian waters for the first time this week. 

As the first of three scheduled builds, the FB277 is the first giga yacht of the season with another two builds, including motor yacht FB272, matching the 100 metre milestone still to come. 

Boasting a steel and aluminium superstructure, the brand new flagship superyacht has a staggering interior volume of 3,800 GT spread over the expanse of six decks.

With Imperial Yachts acting as representation for the new owner of the 15.2 metre beam vessel, Benetti have created the flagship yacht using all the talents their inhouse team possesses. 

From naval architecture to interior design, the Benetti in house team have ensured that the stunning FB277 is entirely a Benetti affair.

Guest comfort and convenience has been a priority in the design efforts of the giga vessel with a vast helicopter pad onboard, allowing for easy access to the yacht and iconic destinations at ports. 

FB277 is, in reality, more beautiful and impressive than we could ever have possibly imagined. With this launch, we recognize the first essential step in strengthening our Brand in order to offer the same outstanding high-end vessels we are already known for in the megayacht sector to the giga yacht sector.

Many stunning innovations and facilities can be found onboard the impressive creation including a sumptuous spa area with a gymnasium, hammam and massage room. A large swimming pool on the sundeck continues the premium relaxation element of the vessel in addition to a luxurious grand piano in the upper deck saloon.

Guests who love being outdoors will enjoy nature at its best with a spacious beach club with access to the sea on both sides of the beam and off the stern. The top deck and sun deck offer ample space for guests to enjoy the sun with roomy sunpads and plenty of exterior seating for al fresco dining and evening cocktails under the stars.

Accommodation onboard the FB277 is second to none with a collection of seven spacious VIP cabins, all with their own private bathrooms. On the wheelhouse deck owner's can retreat to their own secluded area of relaxation in the full beam master cabin. Boasting private balconies to both the port and starboard side, interconnecting bathrooms and an extremely generous dressing area make the master cabin a luxury of its own.

Since emerging from her build shed on December 12th, the iconic FB277 is scheduled to enter the waters of Livorno on December 18th 2018.
