About this yacht
GALAXY is a distinguished 56-meter Benetti motor yacht that exemplifies Italian shipyard excellence and timeless design. Built in 2005 at the renowned Fratelli Benetti yard in Livorno and recently refitted in 2022, she represents a masterclass in thoughtful renovation that honors her original design while updating systems and amenities for contemporary luxury cruising. The interior, conceived by Zuretti Interior Design, creates an atmosphere of refined elegance throughout her steel hull and aluminum superstructure.
Accommodating up to 12 guests across six well-appointed cabins—including a master suite, VIP cabin, three double cabins, and a twin cabin with pullman berths—GALAXY offers flexibility for families and groups. A professional crew of 15 ensures seamless service and attention to every detail. The yacht's 10.4-meter beam provides exceptional interior volume, with multiple living spaces including a gym, multi-functional saloons, and a private recording studio, alongside more traditional features like the large deck jacuzzi and spacious flybridge. An elevator connecting multiple decks adds practical luxury for longer charters.
Naval architecture by Fratelli Benetti, with Stefano Natucci's collaboration, delivers a yacht capable of 16 knots—suitable for both relaxed Mediterranean exploration and purposeful transits. The helicopter landing facility aboard opens possibilities for seamless access to remote destinations and time-efficient charter itineraries. Her 3.1-meter draught balances sea-keeping abilities with access to shallow-water anchorages across Greece, Turkey, Croatia, and the broader Eastern Mediterranean.
GALAXY has established herself as a reliable charter platform, appearing at prestigious industry events including the Antigua Charter Yacht Show. Her combination of generous guest capacity, diverse onboard amenities, and professional operational standards makes her particularly suited to multi-family charters, corporate incentive voyages, and extended Mediterranean exploration. Available for weekly charter at €320,000–€330,000, GALAXY delivers the proven pedigree of Benetti craftsmanship with contemporary comfort and a crew dedicated to creating memorable experiences across the world's finest cruising grounds.
