The 40.6-meter Benetti B.Neos features a MAN Smart Hybrid system, 296 GT volume, and a zero-emission, vibration-free cruising experience.
Benetti officially announces the sale of the B.Neos The Soul of Silence, a 40.6 meter, 296 GT displacement superyacht scheduled for delivery in spring 2028. The transaction was completed with the buyer represented by Royal Yacht International, through its CEO Manuele Thiella.
Born from a vision of essential elegance and an approach rooted in “evolved simplicity”, B.Neos The Soul of Silence reinterprets life on board by placing continuity between spaces, connection with the marine environment, and the culture of silent navigation at the heart of the experience as a true expression of luxury. This philosophy takes shape through exterior architecture by Malcolm McKeon Yacht Design and interiors by Francesca Muzio of FM Architettura.
At the heart of the vessel lies an integrated technological framework powered by a MAN Smart Hybrid system paired with MAN V8-800 engines, engineered to deliver exceptionally quiet passage-making and smart energy management. The setup allows for zero-emission electric cruising and anchoring, reducing fuel consumption and emissions by up to 30 per cent while creating an atmosphere of absolute tranquility, entirely free from noise, exhaust fumes, and vibration.
Inside, the layout prioritises effortless sociability, intuitive living, and an intimate relationship with the natural elements. On the Main Deck, this translates into a seamless, unhindered flow from stern to bow without any structural barriers. On the Upper Deck, the panoramic master suite—comprising a private study and dedicated lobby—culminates in an exclusive forward terrace, showcasing a spatial design tailored to deliver a remarkable level of onboard volume and liveability rarely found on a vessel under 300 gross tons. This latest contract confirms the success of Benetti’s vision, where sustainability, design and advanced technology redefine the art of life at sea.
