Nabila is one of the most historically significant Benetti yachts. Benetti's official Heritage page records her as an 86-metre yacht launched in 1980 and describes her as the first and largest gigayacht ever built at the time. The same source notes her association with Adnan Khashoggi and her later cultural visibility through the James Bond film Never Say Never Again and Queen's song Khashoggi's Ship. She is listed here as a landmark Benetti heritage yacht.
