Benetti Class 44M

Making her world premiere at the 2025 Cannes Yachting Festival, the Benetti Class 44M is the flagship model of Italian shipyard Benetti’s Class superyacht range and the yard’s largest fibreglass model to date. Measuring 44.06 metres in length with a 9.16-metre beam and 2.31-metre draught, the Benetti Class 44M aims to merge “classical design with a refined contemporary stylistic language,” reflecting a holistic approach to yacht design. Featuring both an exterior and interior design by Giorgio M. Cassetta Design, the Benetti Class 44M also boasts an extensive use of transparent glass fashion plates and low-profile bulwarks that flood the interiors with natural light whilst providing uninterrupted ocean views. Her clean exterior lines and four-deck layout offer expansive, fully customisable spaces tailored to owner preferences.

One standout feature onboard the Benetti Class 44M is her beach club positioned at the water’s edge, offering a versatile space with direct sea access, complemented by a generously sized port-side garage facilitating easy tender and water toy deployment. The main deck houses a full-beam owner’s suite forward in the bow, complete with a dedicated office space, a generous wardrobe, and an ensuite bathroom. The spacious main salon features an open-plan dining area with floor-to-ceiling windows, while the upper deck includes a flexible interior living area that extends organically into the outdoor space aft, accommodating a dining table for ten guests, ideal for alfresco experiences. Forward, additional seating and a jacuzzi provide private sunbathing opportunities. The expansive sun deck spans over 102 square metres, providing ample configurable space for dining, sunbathing, or enjoying drinks at the bar. The Benetti Class 44M is able to accommodate up to ten guests across five ensuite staterooms, including the owner’s suite on the main deck and four double staterooms on the lower deck. Powered by twin MAN V12-1400 engines, the Benetti Class 44M has a top speed of 15 knots, with a cruising speed of 11 knots and a range of 4,100 nautical miles.
