THE MULTI-AWARD-WINNING BENETTI
At 65m (213ft) with five decks, including a top-level gym and yoga deck perched high above the sundeck, ARTISAN is one of the largest yachts built by the Benetti shipyard—arguably Italy’s finest shipyard—with elegant, fully custom exterior lines drawn by Giorgio Cassetta. She is a highly versatile yacht, suitable for families, ocean enthusiasts, and adventurers alike. Truly unique, ARTISAN is sure to turn heads in any harbor.
EXTERIOR DESIGN
ARTISAN, featuring a steel hull and aluminum superstructure, claims the prestigious title of World Superyacht Awards Winner in 2020 and Best Exterior Design at the World Yacht Trophies in 2019. ARTISAN’s glorious exterior and interior spaces predominantly showcase carbon, polished steel, and bleached oak, elegantly enhanced with luxurious leather inserts. The bridge deck is 14 meters long, with a bar and spa pool, spacious sunpads, and seating areas. On the upper deck aft, there is a powerful heating system to ensure dining and lounging outside in comfort at any time of the year.
INTERIOR DESIGN
Guests are welcomed into an inviting living space tastefully designed by the German studio Birgit Otte Interior and the London-based design firm Bannenberg & Rowell. This unique collaboration resulted in an innovative arrangement of asymmetric interior spaces, in which the main saloon, upper saloon, and beach club lounge have all been rotated by 30 degrees. This subtle shift delivers a fresh perspective on yachting, offering unique views from every angle. It also imbues the main guest areas on board with a sense of relaxation and elegance.
The interior design palette is soft and contemporary, featuring iconic Fendi furniture and a bespoke white oak finish, offset by carbon fiber and finely crafted details in smoked oak, cream leather, and stainless steel. The convivial upper
saloon is one of the highlights on board, with a dark-gloss grand piano and a sculpted American-style bar made of rare white marble, framed in polished steel.

Among her unique features, ARTISAN boasts a generous convertible VIP cabin on the main deck with a private lounge.

This cabin can also be converted into a massage room.
