Italian shipyard Benetti has delivered the 66.2-metre custom superyacht Iryna to her owner, a repeat Benetti client represented by Arcon Yachts. The first model in the B.Now 67M series, Iryna marks the largest B.Now model to date. She was launched last year in a formal ceremony attended by the owner and his family.
Exterior design is by long-standing collaborator RWD, who has worked along the entire B.Now line. The model is dominated by curved glazing, while this unit in particular features a custom hull and superstructure in three different shades of grey. Iryna also features Benetti's trademark Oasis Deck, which features a flat platform complete with two unfolding gunwales that form overwater balconies.
Other highlights include a pool and numerous wellness areas installed at the owner's request, including a sauna in the beach club and a gym on the main deck.
Accommodation is across seven cabins, including two VIP cabins on the main deck and a full-beam owner's suite on the upper deck. Iryna's custom interiors were styled in house under the direction of Mariarosa Remedi and incorporate custom leather, macassar ebony and marble-effect ceramic tiling – chosen by the owner as a more ecological alternative to marble. The owner also requested that the living spaces feature one of his favourite furniture brands, Vissionaire.
"This event marks an extraordinary milestone for our shipyard and our esteemed owner, to whom we are deeply grateful for his confidence in choosing again to work with us on this project," said Benetti sales director Daniela Petrozzi at the time of Iryna's launch. "A special thank you goes to our outstanding design team and everyone who has worked so hard and with such passion on the creation of this magnificent vessel."
The delivery comes at a busy time for Benetti with a staggering 68 projects on order or in build. Last month, the Italian yard announced its largest on-spec project to date – the 85-metre Project Life – with construction scheduled for September 2025.
