Benetti Launches 65m superyacht ZAZOU
Benetti has announced the launch of 65m full custom superyacht M/Y Zazou. The steel-hulled yacht features sleek and sinuous lines with an elegant Carinthia blue colour, and was commissioned by a repeat Benetti customer.
Zazou accommodates 12 guests in 6 luxurious double cabins, and the Giorgio M Cassetta-designed superyacht has one of the largest Sun Decks in her category (over 20m in length!). The Sun Deck is complete with a gym, 5-metre long swimming pool and an outdoor cinema on top of another cinema area on the Main Deck.
While Cassetta is the creative force behind the sleek profile, Dutch studio Sinot Yacht Architecture & Design arranged the elegant interiors, some of the outdoor spaces, as well as many furnishing details. These details include full custom-designed furniture, bespoke cabinet handles, and a selection of refined light fixtures, chandeliers and special made retail furniture.
The rooms are distinguished by a refined and welcoming style, characterised by soft tones and the alternation of precious materials among which multiple woods, marbles, and different types of leathers and natural fabrics stand out.
The unique Sun Deck places Zazou at the top of her category, with a 5m long infinity pool at the tipoff the bow. The sky lounge on the Upper Deck integrates naturally with the welcoming outdoor spaces, furnished with custom furniture with two L-shaped sofas and a table for 8 people. Elsewhere on the Upper Deck, there is a massage room which can be converted into a double VIP cabin.
Aft of the Main Deck there is an outdoor area for all day relaxation. In the interior, amidships, there is a large and bright living area consisting of a dining room and relaxation space, which can be transformed into a cinema room. The owner’s suite on the Main Deck consists of a lounge area with TV, double wardrobe, a large bed with a second TV. On the port side, the owner has a large bathroom and a private balcony, accessible by a sliding door.
The large beach area of the Lower Deck boasts two openings on the outside, one at the stern provides access to the beach and a space of about 25sqm with immediate access to the sea. For guests wishing to take their adventure to the water, the garage houses a 7.5m tender and two jetskis.
Zazou is the latest statement of Benetti’s prowess in building magnificent custom superyachts to an owner’s requirement, and she will be delivered in the summer season. Zazou follows the recent launch of Benetti's second 40M Oasis, M/Y Joy, while the Italian builder has also delivered its second Diamond 145 and launched its ninth Mediterraneo 116 this year.
