Dagger

Benetti launched Dagger in Livorno, just three weeks after splashing Symmetry. The two 2026 launches represent the third and fourth units of the B.Now 67M, but the first two with hybrid propulsion systems. Built with a steel hull and aluminium superstructure, the B.Now 67M is a 67m, 1,350GT motoryacht with an 11m beam and features exterior design by RWD.

Symmetry features an interior by Reymond Langton Design and includes 10 special decorations ranging from custom fabrics and lacquered metals to textile artworks. A standout feature is the large chandelier in ‘ice effect’ crystal glass, a bespoke piece that reflects light in a sculptural way.

The owner of Dagger chose Sinot Yacht Architecture & Design, the Dutch studio that also handled the interiors of Lady Estey, which is the second unit in the series and was used for the model’s world premiere at the Monaco Yacht Show last September.

Dagger’s interior includes the use of nine woods, while numerous areas have been designed as private art galleries, with special shelves for sculptures and spotlit niches recessed in the walls exhibiting paintings and artwork.

The hybrid propulsion system on Symmetry and Dagger is designed to achieve a tangible reduction in environmental impact and superior acoustic comfort, eliminating vibrations and noise both when under way and at anchor.

The system’s three key elements – main engines, generators and battery pack – operate in variable synergy to adapt to each cruising profile, so optimising energy flows and consumption. The engines can generate electricity, the generators can contribute to propulsion, and the batteries can cover loading peaks or ensure absolute silence.

The propulsion package includes an advanced shaft line system with variable-pitch propellers, which adjust according to the navigation conditions. Technology also includes intelligent use of waste energy, including using the heat produced by the generators to warm domestic water and the swimming pool.

Daniela Petrozzi, Benetti’s Sales Director, said: “Owners are no longer looking just for a yacht but for a more conscious and authentic way to experience the sea. These launches demonstrate how market demand is shifting towards yachts that deliver superior technological autonomy and reduced environmental impact, without ever compromising on comfort.

“For people who choose a large yacht today, the real value lies precisely in the balance between steel construction excellence and propulsion systems capable of offering a quieter and more sustainable quality of life on board.”
