Benetti Brings 67m Hybrid DAGGER and 50m PERSEVERANCE to Monaco

Two Benetti yachts headed for Monaco

Benetti will present two superyachts at the Monaco Yacht Show from 23 to 26 September 2026: the 67-metre hybrid DAGGER and the 50-metre PERSEVERANCE. The shipyard announced the programme on 16 September and describes both as world show premieres, which should not be confused with their original build or launch dates.

The pairing places a technically focused B.Now 67M alongside a highly customised B.Now 50M. Benetti will also use its new Yacht Club de Monaco lounge to introduce owners and visitors to its design and research programmes.

How DAGGER combines propulsion and energy storage

DAGGER, build identifier FB288, has a modular hybrid arrangement combining conventional engines, electric technology and a battery installation described by Benetti as salt-based. The yard says the architecture can adapt to different operating conditions and is intended to support quieter use and more efficient management of onboard power.

Benetti has not released independently verified fuel-saving or acoustic measurements in this announcement, so performance benefits remain the yard’s stated objectives. RWD designed the exterior, while Sinot Yacht Architecture & Design developed the interiors and Benetti’s Oasis Deck forms part of the deck layout.

PERSEVERANCE takes a custom approach

PERSEVERANCE represents the B.Now 50M family but was shaped through a direct design process with its owner. Benetti says the layout, finishes and other details were selected through ongoing owner involvement rather than simply adopting an unchanged standard specification.

The shipyard has not disclosed a transaction price or fresh independently confirmed performance figures for the yacht in this release. Its Monaco presentation instead highlights the extent to which a platform yacht can be altered to reflect an individual owner’s requirements.

A new lounge and the Green Route message

Benetti’s new lounge at the Yacht Club de Monaco was designed by AMDL CIRCLE and Michele De Lucchi. Its Green Route exhibition traces the builder’s work from a diesel-electric installation in 2006 to more recent research, including the B.Neos full-hybrid concept.

The display also references KASPER 7 and its three-star SEA Index certification as reported by the yard. Together, the two Monaco yachts and the lounge provide a look at design customisation and energy-system development without establishing independently measured environmental outcomes for the new exhibits.
