Benetti Articles
The impeccably styled, 35m vintage Benetti motor yacht, known as ‘Star of the Sea,’ is now in the hands of a new, fortunate owner. Replete with history, this splendid maritime masterpiece was originally built and delivered by the Italian shipyard Benetti in 1983; its design hailing from the same quarters.
Sporting a ‘vintage’ steel and aluminum build, Star of the Sea transformed its sheen thanks to major renovation in 2016 followed by a comprehensive $1,000,000+ revamp in 2024. Two decades under the ownership of ‘Solafide’, the yacht now heralds a new era under a fresh mantle.
With its roots in the confident craftsmanship of Italian shipbuilding, the Benetti Vision Series’ SUR LA MER is a sight for sore eyes. Historically celebrated for its grandeur, space-like volume, and cruising surety that could only come from a pedigree superyacht, now it is up for grabs. Crafted by Benetti, one of the industry’s most respected names, SUR LA MER showcases a masterful design for both extended journeys and easy time at anchor alike.
A look at its interior reveals a refined, spacious, and inviting design. Its layout cleverly segregates common areas from the bid for privacy, facilitating a harmonious blend of social interaction and solitude. The main salon serves as the heartbeat, ushering in guests into formal and informal dining areas. The upper-deck lounge adds an extra layer of comfort, setting an idyllic scene for those delightfully mild evenings at sea.
