Benetti 28m

Onboard the Benetti 28m

Benetti 28m brings the yard's signature proportions down to a scale built for close company rather than crowds: 28 metres of hull, four cabins sleeping up to ten guests, and a cruising speed of around 13 knots that keeps coastal transfers settled rather than hurried. The aft deck is arranged for al fresco dining, giving meals room to run long into the evening without pulling guests back indoors, while the sundeck spa area sits apart from the main gathering spaces for anyone who wants the afternoon to slow down on its own terms.

The size suits a couple travelling with close friends, a small family splitting cabins across two generations, or a compact corporate group who want conversation over capacity. A day out might mean a late breakfast served al fresco before the yacht moves to calmer water for an hour at the sundeck spa, then a return leg timed loosely around the light rather than a fixed schedule — the kind of day that works because there are only ten guests to please, not a hundred.

With ten guests as the ceiling, Benetti 28m suits both a single day on the water and a longer route strung across several stops. For multi-day planning, it is worth setting out cruising range, fuel expectations and any provisioning needs before departure, along with a clear understanding of how the day rate and APA are structured — details that make the difference between a smooth week aboard and one full of surprises.
