PATIENCE Yacht Description
A member of the timeless Benetti Classic Supreme series, the 132-foot (40.2m) motor yacht PATIENCE showcases all that Benetti has to offer. Designed by famous naval architect Stefano Righini, M/Y PATIENCE exhibits everything you would expect from Benetti and Righini: luxury and Italian design excellence.
She was built in 2012 and underwent a major engine room refit in 2020. Followed by an interior refit in 2022, the yacht refreshed some of interior designer Francois Zuretti’s finest work. The streamlined yet warm interior is highlighted with ample light from floor to ceiling windows in the main salon dining area. Newly refinished floors and guest area walls glisten throughout the vessel.
The master is forward and features all the luxuries you could want, including a private office, foldout private balcony, walk-in closet, and a large ensuite with a soaking tub and separate shower. The four remaining guest cabins are below deck and are comprised of two double cabins and twin cabins, both with their own ensuite.
She is the perfect platform for entertaining and relaxing, with expansive exterior space and two on-deck Jacuzzis – one on the sun deck and one at the bow, which is unheard of for a yacht of this size. With multiple areas for formal and informal dining, sunbathing and relaxing, or having drinks with close friends, the possibilities are endless on PATIENCE with her versatile layout.
PATIENCE comfortably cruises at 12 knots, reaching a maximum speed of 15 knots with a range of 3,500nm at 10 knots. She is also equipped with zero-speed Naiad stabilization at anchor and underway for extra comfort while at sea.
Offered by DMA Yachting, the majestic charter yacht PATIENCE is a 132 ft motor yacht featuring a hot tub. The most valuable elements of PATIENCE are her most appealing features and alfresco dining areas. PATIENCE spends the winter season in British Virgin Islands.
