Unveiled to an audience of discerning yacht connoisseurs at the prestigious Genoa International Boat Show, the latest creation from Benetti—the Oasis 40M—makes an unforgettable first impression. This highly anticipated debut introduces a new vision of life at sea, where innovation, design, and effortless luxury converge.
Penned by renowned British studio RWD, the yacht’s exterior is both architectural and fluid, while the interiors, crafted by New York–based Bonetti/Kozerski Architecture, deliver a sophisticated yet relaxed aesthetic that feels more private residence than vessel.
At 40 meters, the Oasis 40M redefines onboard living through its signature “Oasis Deck”—a transformative open-air concept centered around what is arguably one of the most striking features in its class: an expansive infinity pool that appears to dissolve seamlessly into the horizon. Fold-out terraces extend on either side, creating a beach-club atmosphere that blurs the boundary between yacht and sea, offering an immersive, resort-style experience unlike anything else on the water.
Equally compelling is the yacht’s reimagined wheelhouse—a space that transcends traditional functionality. Designed as a social and experiential hub, it invites the owner and guests to share in the journey alongside the captain. With seating for six and panoramic glazing, it becomes a place to connect, observe, and experience navigation from a rare, elevated perspective.
Throughout the vessel, floor-to-ceiling windows flood the interiors with natural light, reinforcing a design philosophy rooted in openness and harmony with the surrounding seascape. Across four decks, the yacht accommodates up to 10 guests in five elegantly appointed cabins, alongside quarters for seven crew members. The captain’s suite, strategically positioned near the wheelhouse, ensures seamless operation and discretion.
Performance is equally refined. Powered by twin MAN V12 engines, the Oasis 40M reaches a top speed of approximately 18 knots, while maintaining impressive efficiency at cruising speed. Its advanced hull design, enhanced by a vertical bow, ensures both stability and long-range capability—making transatlantic voyages not only possible, but effortlessly comfortable.
With the Oasis 40M, Benetti delivers more than a yacht—it presents a new lifestyle concept at sea, where architecture, innovation, and the art of leisure exist in perfect balance.
