1973 Benetti 26D

Imperia, Imperia

€2,900,000

AF is a 25.6-metre motor yacht built and launched in Italy in 1974 by the Fratelli Benetti shipyard. An extensive rebuild process is currently ongoing at MCS Shipyard in Imperia, Italy.

Her interior configuration has been designed to accommodate up to six guests in three cabins and carry up to three crew members to ensure a comfortable onboard experience. Designer Luca Catino refreshed the exteriors and interiors yet preserved the original style that distinguishes the traditional shape of the Benetti canoe stern yachts.

AF features a displacement hull with a typical canoe stern, a central skeg and two shaft lines on either side of a balanced. 

The Benetti 26D was built by the Storico Cantiere Italiano F.lli Benetti of Viareggio in 1974. In 2018-2020 the rebuild of Navetta has been started by MCS srl in its Shipyard in San Lorenzo al mare - Imperia.

The yacht has a displacement hull with typical geometries and round stern, a central skeg and two lines of axles on the sides of a balanced rudder.

The exteriors and interiors, revised in a modern way by the designer Luca Catino, still preserve the original style that distinguishes the traditional line of the Navette Benetti with round stern.

The on-board systems will be built completely from scratch. The main propulsion engines will be completely overhauled to new.
