Benetti has announced the sale of its B.Yond 57M yacht, following its introduction at the 2024 Monaco Yacht Show.
The B.Yond 57M is the latest model in Benetti’s Voyager line-up, blending eco-conscious technology with hybrid propulsion and adaptable design. The Italian boatbuilder says this line aims to support extended sea voyages with increased functionality.
The B.Yond 57M is the largest hybrid model within the Voyager series and showcases exterior design by Igor Lobanov, complemented by interior styling from Bonetti/Kozerski Architecture.
The yacht incorporates three configurable stern designs—Beach, Air, and Water—each tailored to distinct yachting preferences. The first unit’s owner has selected the beach configuration, which is designed for direct water access and includes a 161.8-square-metre beach area and a 15-square-metre pool.

A sliding sofa system allows the pool to be covered, creating a flexible lounging space.
The beach area connects to a 100-square-metre convertible garage deck, which, when not in use, expands the guest area to create a total of 260 square metres of internal and external space.
The yacht’s layout positions guest spaces on the main deck, moving the main salon to the upper deck, offering panoramic views through full-height windows and providing a 22-metre open space from bow to stern.
“We are proud to announce the sale of the first unit of B.Yond 57M as this demonstrates the market’s positive reaction to our new projects announced at the end of September at our annual press conference,” says Daniela Petrozzi, sales director at Benetti Yachts. “We are happy to start this new journey with our client.”
Benetti has a commitment to meeting zero emissions targets by 2030. This model includes a hybrid-electric system to allow emissions-free cruising and anchoring, and a direct expansion HVAC system, which can reduce consumption by up to 80 per cent compared to conventional water-based systems. EcoDeck is used in place of traditional teak for deck coverage, alongside FSC-certified woods and sustainable materials such as water-based paints, leather, and fabric selections within the interiors.
