About Benita Blue
Benita Blue is a unique, one-off superyacht launched in 2007 and maintained under single, dedicated ownership since new. She possesses an exceptional pedigree, recently completing her 20-year class survey, and has been consistently held in Commercial Class with a reputable charter history in the Balearics. She is managed and crewed year-round by her long-term Captain, assuring her quality and prestige stand out from production-line vessels. The yacht offers a sophisticated and calm interior, highlighted by a full-width Saloon and a light-filled aft dining room—spaces that maximize comfort and connectivity. She provides highly flexible accommodation across four main cabins, configurable as doubles or doubles/singles, along with a main deck office. Outside, the multi-functional decks include a Flybridge with shaded 'alfresco' dining and a relaxing hot tub, and a unique, private forward sun deck. Benita Blue is fully equipped with a 2019 Williams turbojet tender and a substantial list of water toys, cementing her status as a high-quality, proven, and impeccably maintained bespoke vessel.

More about Benita Blue
Description
- Benita Blue is a unique, one-off superyacht launched in 2007 and maintained under single, dedicated ownership since new. She possesses an exceptional pedigree, recently completing her 20-year class survey, and has been consistently held in Commercial Class with a reputable charter history in the Balearics. She is managed and crewed year-round by her long-term Captain, assuring her quality and prestige stand out from production-line vessels.
- The yacht offers a sophisticated and calm interior, highlighted by a full-width Saloon and a light-filled aft dining room—spaces that maximize comfort and connectivity. She provides highly flexible accommodation across four main cabins, configurable as doubles or doubles/singles, along with a main deck office. Outside, the multi-functional decks include a Flybridge with shaded 'alfresco' dining and a relaxing hot tub, and a unique, private forward sun deck. Benita Blue is fully equipped with a 2019 Williams turbojet tender and a substantial list of water toys, cementing her status as a high-quality, proven, and impeccably maintained bespoke vessel.
Technical Specification
- Benita Blue is powered by 2 x 1,800hp MTU diesel engines type 16V 2000 M90, controlled by Mathers Control Heads. Engine hours as of September 2025 are low for her age (Port: 3020; Stbd: 3024). Power is delivered through 2 x ZF reverse cycle gearboxes (4540@ 2.529:1 reduction) to 2 x Veem Cunial fixed pitch propellers via 4.5-inch Veem 2205 Stainless Steel shafts. This configuration allows for a Maximum Speed of 24 knots (at half load) and a comfortable Cruising Speed of 17 Knots. At an economical speed of 11 knots, the yacht achieves an impressive range of 1,200 nautical miles (NM). Fuel consumption is approximately 810 litres/hour at maximum speed and drops significantly to 120 litres/hour at economical speed (including generator consumption). Tank capacities are substantial, providing for 16,500 litres of fuel and 5,000 litres of water, supplemented by a Sea Recovery reverse osmosis watermaker producing 4,000 litres per day. The yacht also holds 1,750 litres each for grey and black water.
Auxiliary Systems and Electricals
- The yacht's robust electrical system is centered around 2 x Onan 60 kW generators (type MDGDD) with auto start, sync, and parallel operation capabilities. Generator hours as of September 2025 were Port: 7508 and Stbd: 7565. The system runs on 415/380/230-volt, 50 Hz power. Shore power is connected via a 100-amp 3 phase connection and managed by a Glendinning Shore Cable Retriever and a 50 Kva shore power transformer/frequency converter. Battery banks include 4 x 225 Ah for Main Engines and Generators, 7 x 183 Ah for Radio/Navigation/Emergency, and 2 x 225 AH for House services. Ancillary equipment includes a Twin hydraulic ram actuated steering system, a Naiad 60hp bow thruster, and a Naiad Active Fin stabilization system for roll control. Air conditioning is provided by a Marineair reverse cycle system, and hot water by 2 x 3 phase 250 litre High recovery heaters.
Navigation, Communication, and Safety
- Benita Blue is well-equipped with comprehensive navigation and communication suites. Navigation instruments include a Furuno Satellite Compass (SC-60), a Furuno Autopilot (Navpilot), a B&G Hydra 2000 Wind/Depth/Log Pack, and a Furuno Colour echo sounder. Radar capabilities are provided by a Furuno Blackbox Navet System with a 12 kW Radar/ARPA module and an additional Raymarine Gs Series Radar/Chartplotter. Communication is handled via Starlink for cellular connectivity, multiple ICOM and Furuno VHF Radiotelephones, and a Panasonic PABX Telephone/Intercom System. For safety and security, the yacht features a Notifier addressable fire alarm system, a fixed gas fire extinguishing system in the engine room, a Central Alarm Monitoring System (AMS 2000), CCTV, and full SOLAS-approved safety gear, including 2 x 25-man life rafts and 30 lifejackets.
Deck Equipment, Galley, and Accommodation
- Deck operations are managed by 2 x Muir hydraulic anchor windlasses and a capstan, handling 2 x 122 kg polished stainless steel anchors with 87m of galvanised stud link chains. Guest access is via an Opacmar s/s hydraulic passerelle, and a Besenzoni 450 kg SWL hydraulic davit handles the tender. Entertainment is provided by a comprehensive Audio/Visual system featuring Apple TV throughout, 5.1 surround sound in the saloon, and multiple Samsung and Sony TVs. The full commercial galley is fitted with high-end appliances (Siemens induction hub, oven, Fisher & Paykel fridge), and the laundry features two sets of Siemens washer/dryer units. Guest refreshment is served from two U-Line bar fridges and an ice maker. Accommodation is highly flexible: a full-width owner's suite (which can be divided into two doubles), two Double/Twin guest cabins (each with a Pullman), and a convertible study on the upper deck. Crew quarters include a double Captain's cabin and two twin crew cabins. Water sports are catered to by a Williams Turbojet 395 tender, two SeaBob F5-S units, inflatable kayaks, wakeboards, and waterskis.
