H is a sleek, fast and beautifully finished 42.6-metre motor yacht built by the celebrated Italian shipyard Benetti and delivered from its Viareggio yard in 2015, with a refit in 2024 keeping her in impeccable condition. She is a semi-custom example of Benetti’s acclaimed Veloce 140 Fast Displacement class, embodying its sleek elegance and functional sophistication, and offers the latest in luxury cruising with genuine performance. Her streamlined, modern and inviting exterior is the work of the renowned Stefano Righini, whose distinctive split-level foredeck takes the Portuguese-bow concept to another level, while her cool, contemporary interior is by the acclaimed British studio RWD, Redman Whiteley Dixon. Built on a fast-displacement composite hull with a GRP superstructure over three decks and classed by RINA, she is quick and capable, reaching a top speed of around 21 knots and cruising at up to 19 knots, with stabilisers ensuring excellent comfort at anchor. Her rejuvenating, Zen-like interior is beautifully laid out in a palette of cool grey tones, with grey sycamore walls, pale wenge flooring, soft warm leather, cool glass and marble creating guest areas that are both comfortable to live in and impressive for entertaining, accented by subtle, characterful details such as chic leather floor panels, woven leather in the cabins and eye-catching elephant motifs. The main salon is lined with large picture windows and features a dedicated cinema area with two large reclining cinema seats set before a huge screen, while the sky lounge offers an elegant formal dining setting, and a well-equipped gym lets guests maintain their routine at sea. Life on deck is exceptional. The innovative split-level foredeck is a standout, with a spacious jacuzzi flanked by dual sun pads and a covered seating area offering panoramic views, while the sun deck aft is optimised for leisure with couches, daybeds and an alfresco dining table for up to twelve, shaded by a retractable awning. The main deck aft features an elegant double stairway that descends to a multipurpose beach club and swim platform revealed when the transom opens, enhancing the connection with the water, and she carries a plethora of toys including a waterslide, Seabobs and paddleboards. Accommodation is arranged for up to 10 guests in five chic staterooms. The expansive full-beam master suite is located forward on the main deck, entered through an elegant foyer and a relaxation room with an oversized daybed, and features a leather-based king bed, his-and-hers walk-in wardrobes, a desk and mirrored his-and-hers en-suites with heated floors and grey-and-white marble showers. On the lower deck are two VIP double cabins with king beds and walk-in closets, which can connect directly to two further twin cabins, all en-suite, giving flexible accommodation ideal for families and groups of friends. A dedicated crew of eight ensures relaxed, five-star service throughout. Powered by twin MTU engines, H cruises the Mediterranean in summer and the Caribbean in winter, offering charter guests a rare combination of Benetti build quality, genuine speed, a sophisticated RWD interior, a standout foredeck jacuzzi and a fun-filled beach club aboard one of the most stylish fast yachts of her size on the charter market.
