Benetti records third Delfino 95 sale at Cannes 2016

THIRD DELFINO 95′ SOLD AT CANNES YACHTING FESTIVAL 2016 | Benetti news image

Benetti's historic announcement records the sale of Delfino 95 hull BD103 during the Cannes Yachting Festival in 2016, with delivery then planned for 2018.

Benetti's archive records the sale of a third Delfino 95 yacht during the 2016 Cannes Yachting Festival. The order concerned hull BD103, a member of the builder's then-new Class range of semi-displacement motor yachts, rather than a new sale concluded in 2024 or 2026.

The Delfino 95 designation refers to a yacht of approximately 29 metres, placing the model in the smaller end of the superyacht market. At the time of the order announcement, Benetti anticipated delivery of the third hull in 2018, around the same period as two sister projects already in the construction programme.

The announcement illustrated Benetti's approach to building a family of yachts around a common technical platform, while giving owners individual choices in accommodation, finishes and onboard use. The hull number is important historical context because multiple Delfino 95 yachts were sold under the same model name.

This is an archival sales report. Benetti's current website dates its retrospective page to September 2019 but describes a transaction at Cannes in 2016. The recorded delivery expectation and sale details refer to that historical period and should not be interpreted as an available yacht or a present-day brokerage listing.
