BENETTI VIVACE 125 M/Y IRON MAN

The Vivace 125' compliments the Benetti Class Fast Displacement range's flagship Veloce 140' and is influenced by its construction technology, styling and layout. As of today, five units have already been sold. With a length of 38.1m and a beam of 8.3m, built in composites and carbon in the Viareggio yard, the Vivace 125' is a three decked (plus the sun deck) semi wide body yacht. The sportive exterior was designed by Stefano Righini with a widespread use of horizontal windows that accentuate the streamlining, together with a remarkable central structure in the side of the superstructure that covers the access stairway to the upper deck.

Iron Man is the first of the gamma and was sold to a young owner and, as the name reminds us, has interiors inspired by the famous comic book hero – an inventor in love with technology. The furnishings, developed by the interior designer Alfred Karram Jr, are a referral to the very modern style, with a predominant use of grey wood next to the ceiling's black and white. The crystal dining room table and steel detailing provide a clear sensation of technology.

The exterior of Iron Man has four distinct areas devoted to the sea and on-board living. Astern on the upper deck we have a lounge with a custom divan over two meters long and almost five wide, while forward a swimming pool and area for relaxing are added to the traditional sun-deck. The owner also specifically requested that the deck be equipped with an external steering position.

The exterior spaces are finished in a special gray and white gel coating that adds a special brilliance to the entertaining areas. The teak flooring is designed to respect the angular geometries of the superstructure and hull. This is evident in the direction of the planking that consistently flows in a parallel direction to the angle of the bow. The starboard and port side planks all converge into one center plank that serves as a visual spine that runs the entire length of the boat.

The interior layout features four suites for eight guests, plus the full beam owner's apartment on the main deck. The captain will have a crew of seven for running the yacht and catering to the guests. On the main deck, the cockpit is furnished with a settee, tables and two armchairs, and the guests move to the main salon through a large sliding crystal door.
