Benetti Returns to Qatar Boat Show 2025 with Expanded Middle East Focus

Benetti has confirmed its return to the Qatar Boat Show 2025, held from November 5 to 8 at the Old Doha Port, reaffirming the region’s importance to the shipyard’s global growth strategy.

Following its successful debut at last year’s Qatar Boat Show, the Italian builder will showcase new projects and highlight its continued expansion across the Gulf’s large yacht sector.

Expanding Influence in the Gulf

The Middle East has emerged as one of Benetti’s most dynamic markets, particularly for custom and full-custom yachts. The shipyard credits this momentum to its deep-rooted expertise in personalization, craftsmanship, and engineering excellence. Each project, says Benetti, evolves through close collaboration with the owner, merging advanced design with meticulous detailing.

Over the past several years, Benetti has delivered multiple bespoke yachts to clients in the Gulf, underscoring the region’s increasing demand for Italian design and technical precision. Its return to Doha reinforces this relationship and gives visitors a closer look at the builder’s latest flagship designs.

Benetti is set to present a trio of models, showcasing the shipyard’s newest designs and upcoming custom projects.

Oasis 42M: Expanding a Signature Line

Headlining Benetti’s presentation is the Benetti Oasis 42M, the new flagship of the shipyard’s fiberglass Oasis series featuring the acclaimed Oasis Deck® concept. Designed in collaboration with British studio RWD, the deck’s fold-out side terraces expand the aft lounge to more than 100 square meters, anchored by an infinity pool with a retractable cover.

Inside the yacht, Bonetti/Kozerski Architecture has created a light, contemporary retreat defined by natural materials and textured surfaces that echo the movement of water. The Oasis 42M builds on the success of its predecessors while introducing larger open spaces and enhanced connection to the sea.

B.Now 52M: Evolution of a Best-Seller

Also presented will be the Benetti B.Now 52M, a steel model that advances the acclaimed B.Now 50M line, of which 21 units have already been sold.

RWD’s design introduces a 30% larger Oasis Deck®, spanning 130 square meters, with an enlarged pool featuring a retractable cover that transforms the stern into a flexible entertainment platform.

The Main Deck showcases a 48-meter interior stretch from salon to bow terrace, offering continuous sea views and exceptional spatial flow. On the upper deck of the motor yacht, the removal of the exterior staircase opens an entirely private owner’s area, combining a 110-square-meter suite with a secluded terrace overlooking the water.

B.Loft 58M: A Contemporary Vision of Luxury Living

As the largest model presented, the Benetti B.Loft 58M reimagines the yacht as a modern architectural space inspired by the openness of villas and lofts.

First revealed at the Monaco Yacht Show, the design focuses on well-being and social connection through double-height ceilings, floor-to-ceiling windows, and fluid transitions between inside and out.

At its heart lies the Cabana Deck™ - a redefined beach club concept spanning 15.5 meters in width and featuring a glass ceiling beneath the pool terrace above. Natural light filters through to create a tranquil, immersive atmosphere that connects guests directly to the surrounding sea.

Benetti's appearance at the Qatar Boat Show strengthens the brand’s foothold in the Middle Eastern market, as the shipyard continues to deliver custom yachts that reflect the evolving tastes and ambitions of Gulf owners.

According to YachtBuyer Market Watch, the world's largest yacht database, Benetti has 55 yachts either in build or on order at the time of writing. Set to be delivered in 2030, the 85m superyacht Project Life currently stands as the largest.
