When Benetti was developing the concept for its Oasis range of superyachts it started with the simple question: “what do owners really want from their superyacht?”.

The range was established with the launch of the Oasis 40M yacht, which has gone on to sell 12+ units since the first build. One of these units included Rebeca, which was sold to former American powerboat champion Tim Ciasulli and won a prestigious World Superyacht Award in 2021. Building on the Oasis 40M’s success in 2022, a smaller Oasis 34M version was unveiled and a remarkable 8+ yachts have already been sold.

The designer, RWD, has focused on altering the classic onboard concept to better suit the modern-day owner. The result, which was unveiled on the first Oasis 34M, Seaesta, includes the addition of several open-plan social areas in places where guests are kept as close to the water as possible.
