BENETTI WINNER OF WORLD YACHTS TROPHIES 2024

At the award ceremony of the World Yachts Trophies 2024, the awards organized annually by Yachts France magazine, Benetti was announced winner in the special category “Best Custom Yacht” with the new FB282 M/Y Iryna.

Benetti’s M/Y Iryna, a custom yacht of the B.Now 67M family, is a mega yacht with a steel hull and spread over six decks with about 500 square meters of usable space and a 65-square-meter main salon.

The owner, who already had a Benetti’s yacht, renewed his trust in the Shipyard to build this vessel, eager to ensure the highest quality of construction and design innovation. The interiors of M/Y Iryna were designed by Benetti while the exterior lines are designed by RWD, which brings aboard this mega yacht the Oasis Deck®, the innovative solution that revolutionizes the concept of a stern cockpit by creating an authentic connection with the sea. 

Benetti “The House of Yachting”

In terms of accommodations, the full-beam master suite is situated on the upper deck, deviating from the initial layout. To facilitate this, the wheelhouse was moved up a level, together with the captain’s cabin. Additionally, the owner of Iryna requested two VIP suites on the main deck and four guest staterooms on the lower deck, accommodating a total of 13 people.

The family members staying in the VIP suites have the closest access to the gym, since it’s on the same deck. They’re also in proximity to the nearly 700-square-foot (65-square-meter) main saloon. Chances are high that they and the rest of the guests will indulge in a sauna in the beach club as well.
