by The second Oasis model will also be centred on the popular Oasis Deck®.
Benetti is following its hugely successful Oasis 40M with the 34M model, a 113ft version of the Oasis concept notable for its open aft deck with infinity pool and drop-down sides. Hull one of the Oasis 34M is expected to be launched later this year.
As with her big sister, exterior styling is by UK firm RWD and interiors are by Bonetti/Kozerski, the New York-based architectural studio specialising in residential and hôtellerie projects. Naval architecture is by Azimut-Benetti and Pierluigi Ausonio Naval Architecture (P.L.A.N.A.), while twin MTU 10V engines provide a top speed of 16 knots and a range of 2,700nm at 12 knots.
The Oasis Deck’s signature features include two wings that open out on either side, a clear 270-degree view free of railings and sofas, and a glass-backed infinity pool surrounded by a sunbathing and lounging area. The garage for a 5m tender is on the side of the yacht.
Outdoor areas use a narrow-plank teak, while a lighter shade is used inside for the main and upper decks to brighten the interiors, with the furnishings and bulkheads finished in pale oak.
On the main deck, the saloon features two seating areas, each with long, curved sofas, while the forward wall is made up of a linear bookcase.
The master suite is forward and has an aft-facing bed and full-height windows, and can have an opening terrace to starboard. Forward, the fullbeam bathroom is entered via dressing areas on both sides of the bedhead.
The skylounge on the upper deck is home to the dining area and is served by a pantry, linked by a dumb waiter to the galley on the main deck. The skylounge opens aft onto a stern terrace furnished with sofas and armchairs.
Like on all Benetti yachts, the spaces can be configured by the owner. Multiple layout options include the interior dining area on the main deck, freeing up the skylounge for use as a multifunctional space such as a cinema or a gym.
Forward on the upper deck is the helm station and captain’s cabin, while in the bow is a large sun pad that conceals a compartment for a jetski.
The open sun deck provides another alfresco dining area, while the lower deck includes two VIP suites and two twin guest cabins, as well as three crew cabins and the crew mess.
