With a fuel tank capacity of 345,000 litres and powerful twin MTU 2880 kW engines, she has a maximum speed of 18.5 knots and an autonomous range of 6,500 nautical-miles at 14 knots.

The yacht has a large heated swimming pool on the main deck, and accommodates a whole host of yacht toys and tenders on board.

The observation deck provides breathtaking evenings under the stars, while on the bridge deck a 1.5-metre fire pit sets the scene for cosy nights at sea. The owner’s deck features its own private al fresco dining and relaxation areas, while on the main deck a vast dining table provides the perfect setting for an evening of al fresco fine dining.

“The exterior design of FB275 epitomises all that RWD strive for in our designs – elegance, beauty, attention to detail and absolute quality in every surface and sweeping curve” said Adrian Chisnell, Team Principal at RWD.

“Many years in development, the exterior lines were created to portray a purposeful and powerful stature yet with a timeless flowing silhouette. Significant engineering accomplishments on board coupled with such an elegant exterior form, masterfully crafted by Benetti create a unique statement – of which RWD’s whole team are incredibly proud.” 

FB275 accommodates up to 22 guests on board in absolute comfort and luxury, tended to by a yacht crew of 29.
