The exterior styling is by UK design firm RWD and the interiors are the work of Bonetti/Kozerski Architecture, based in New York. A multifunction beach area offers 90 square metres of openness just a few steps from the water’s surface. The yacht extends across four decks, offering a total of five staterooms for 10 guests and four cabins for seven crew members, including the captain. March 31 saw the launch of M/Y “JOY”, the second unit of the Oasis 40M, an innovative 40-metre fibreglass yacht with a series of specially requested custom features. The owner, a first-time Benetti buyer, supervised the design and production of the yacht firsthand and expressed his satisfaction at the result delivered by the Shipyard, which has once again demonstrated the unparalleled construction capabilities that make it a unique testimonial of Made in Italy excellence worldwide. The exterior styling of Oasis 40M is the perfect combination of Italian refinement and classic English lines designed by the UK-based RWD. The vertical bow, the full-height glazing in the wheelhouse, and the automotive industry-inspired style accents (like the silver paint around the perimeter of the windows) give the yacht an energy-filled look, while the wide open spaces in the stern dedicated to an outdoor lifestyle reveal her glamorous spirit. The beach area is powerfully innovative, taking the form of a terrace with no physical or visual barriers and designed as a multifunctional space. This area is perfect during the day as a focal point for life on board, and in the evening as an elegant salon, the ideal setting for a pre-dinner aperitif, or even an open-air cinema, as requested by the owner. With the two side wings open, the total walk-on surface of the beach area rises to 90 square metres and its width to a maximum of 11 meters (the hull has a beam of 8.5 metres). On each side, three steps lead up to the main lounge, which is entered through a large sliding door for seamless continuity between the exterior and interior spaces. The beach area also has no stairway to the upper decks, which can be reached from the side walkways or from inside the yacht. The garage is on the starboard side to avoid any interference with this area. The interiors designed for informal comfort by New York firm Bonetti/Kozerski Architecture are reminiscent of an elegant open space loft.
