About Benetti
After WW2, wooden commercial boats had disappeared from the market so the company refocused on building steel, pleasure crafts. In the 1960s it started producing its first superyachts.
In 1985, Azimut took over the Fratelli Benetti boatyard in Viareggio, setting the roots for the Azimut Benetti group. The company later started collaborating with young designer, Stefano Righini, which would bring lines the company is known for today.
The company acquired the Gobbi shipyard in 2001 which now produced the group's Atlantis range from 10m to 18m. In 2004, the group acquired Fraser Yachts, a large yacht brokerage company. It later developed Marina di Varazze and the Royal Yacht Club in Moscow. By 2011, the group's net assets grew to €300 million with a turnover of €600 million, a significant cut on its €1 billion turnover of 2008.

Two Minotti armchairs add to the refined decor. The galley and other areas maintain a consistent color palette, enhancing the overall design continuity.

Cantiere del Pardo has released the first detailed images of the Grand Soleil 72 Long Cruise, a bluewater yacht designed for long-distance sailing. Captured by Fabio Taccola, the photos highlight the yacht's design, which was crafted by Matteo Polli with exterior and interior layout by Nauta Design.The Grand Soleil 72 Long Cruise, or LC, builds on the success of the Grand Soleil 72 Performance (P) model. It features a raised and extended deckhouse, providing additional saloon space and a deeper cockpit. The yacht's sleek lines and enhanced comfort are intended for safe maneuvering, even with a reduced crew. The onboard systems are designed to optimize resource management and minimize fuel consumption."The Grand Soleil 72 project was always meant to include an exceptional Long Cruise version," said Franco Corazza, project manager for Grand Soleil's over 60ft fleet. "Combining tradition and innovation, this yacht leverages our experience in advanced composites and the expertise of our Made in Italy partners."The LC version introduces a raised deckhouse, creating a 270-degree panoramic view from the 20-square-meter saloon. This area is divided between a large dining table for eight and a comfortable sofa to starboard. An offset companionway reconfigures the spacious cockpit to include a larger C-shaped sofa without sacrificing twin sunbeds at the aft end. This design allows for two distinct social areas: one on deck and one below.The raised deckhouse also provides technical advantages. By elevating the roof and floor slightly, additional space is created below deck for electrical and mechanical systems, freeing up room elsewhere on the yacht. Despite these modifications, the LC version adds no more than 500kg to the displacement.Naval architect Matteo Polli, known for optimizing race boats, designed the Grand Soleil 72LC. The hull is constructed using vacuum infusion in epoxy-based vinylester with glass/carbon fiber and recycled PVC foam core. This construction ensures high performance on long offshore passages, with speeds exceeding true wind speeds up to 10 knots. The yacht can reach over 14 knots on a broad reach and 20 knots under optimal conditions.The Grand Soleil 72LC is equipped with a powerful sailplan, including options for a fat-head main, furling gennaker, Code sail, and staysail. Sail handling is facilitated by a self-tacking jib and large electric winches, with controls accessible from the twin helm stations.Nauta Design, renowned for its work with Grand Soleil, crafted the yacht's interior to maximize space and comfort. The saloon offers expansive views through deckhouse windows and skylights. The design includes intelligent storage solutions and complete amenities, with two possible galley configurations and a master cabin forward for privacy and natural light.Guest accommodations include two large cabins configurable as doubles or twins, each with ensuite options. The captain's cabin can be used as a fourth guest room or dedicated crew space.The interior features high-quality upholstery, fine woods, and stainless steel detailing in three palette options: warm teak, dark walnut, or limed oak. This creates a contemporary and welcoming space."Our owners are passionate about the entire journey, from design and construction to delivery," said Corazza. "They appreciate the expertise of our team, many of whom are professional sailors providing unparalleled advice."Cantiere del Pardo was founded in 1973 in Italy. Pardo Yachts, the brand of Cantiere del Pardo dedicated to powerboats, was born in 2016. The first model, the Pardo 43, was launched in 2017. Grand Soleil was founded in 1973 and is famous for its yachts, which ensure performance for regattas, autonomous long-distance navigation, as well as a high level of sustainable consciousness.Credits: Fabio Taccola/Cantiere del Pardo
