Benetti has been building yachts in Livorno since 1873, and the yard now spans five Italian facilities delivering steel, aluminium and fibreglass hulls from 37 to more than 100 metres. The range is deliberately broad: a Benetti can be a 40 metre displacement cruiser for a family of six or a 90 metre full-custom project with a three-year interior programme. What connects the fleet is Italian design sensibility and a production depth no other single yard matches.
Sixteen Benetti yachts cruise the Caribbean, giving Anguilla-based guests an unusually wide choice of size, layout and specification. The middle of the range, from 45 to 65 metres, dominates availability, though both smaller Fast Displacement hulls and larger Custom projects appear seasonally. Interior designers across the fleet include some of the most recognised names in Italy, so the aesthetic varies sharply between boats while the build standard remains consistent.
Charter rates in Anguilla vary with vessel length and specification. The advance provisioning allowance, typically 30 percent of the base rate, covers fuel, berthing, food, drinks and marina fees and should be factored into budget planning before signing heads of terms.
Anguilla rewards a Benetti charter because the island calm suits the larger Benetti hull forms, which perform best in protected anchorages rather than open swell. The island has no airport crowding issues for private arrivals and provisioning via St Martin fifteen minutes away is straightforward. Your broker will confirm which Benetti yachts are positioned in the Caribbean region for your dates.
