The BENETTI FAST 125′ is the most popular of the Benetti Class Fast Displacement range and is influenced by her construction technology, styling and layout.
With a length of 38.1m and a beam of 8.45m, built in fibreglass and carbon composites at the Viareggio yard, the FAST 125′ is a three-decked (plus the sundeck) 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.
This BENETTI FAST 125 Superyacht for sale, was the first of the series. The furnishings, originally 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 this BENETTI FAST 125 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 original Owner also specifically requested that the deck be equipped with an external steering position.
The beach area has its own bar and is completely dedicated to enjoying the sea, thanks to the non-intruding lateral garage opening.
The exterior spaces are finished in a special grey 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 centre 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 eight 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.
Upon entering the saloon, the black, grey, and white book-matched granite floor creates a grand palatial entrance into the space. An intricately designed multi-tiered ceiling that is finished in alternating polished and matte grey lacquer delineates the furnished spaces below. The eye is then immediately directed to a deeply textured circular relief painting that is finished in a brilliant crimson medium. This piece of art seemingly floats against a striking black and silver aluminium tiled wall, creating a dramatic backdrop for the Dining room. A custom designed dining table base of sleek juxtaposed polished stainless-steel columns support the crystal glass tabletop. All of the walls throughout are comprised of a cool grey stained exotic wood panelling that fully envelopes the entire space. The welcoming sofa seating is adorned with fine leather hides, set off by a brilliant textured fabric.
The day bathroom is done in backlit sheets of resin encased stone, creating a beautiful visual effect.
The main staircase appears as a beautiful waterfall providing access to the wheelhouse and gymnasium above, and the VIP and guest suites below. Thick black leather treads softly flow over the custom designed molten glass risers, that when backlit, act as a stunning light source at night.
Moving further forward we reach the Owner’s apartment, composed of a spacious dressing room, his bedroom with a worktable, a small salon and two bathrooms, his and hers, separated by a large shower in granite and mosaics.
The Master suite features an upholstered suede accent wall, designed in alternating trapezoidal shapes. The LED TV is inset into a highly textured resin panelled wall, coloured in different hues of cool blue, black and grey, with scattered ascents of silver and white flecks. The King size bed is shroud in soft grey leather, outfitted with sumptuous black satin linens, finished in a highly textured bed cover and pillows. A custom designed desk and coffee table continue the stainless-steel and glass motif shared by other tables throughout.
The design also foresees two large glass walls on either side that provide a perfect visual and natural light combination.
The galley was very much appreciated by the Owner, with a country kitchen equipped with a professional cooking area completely separate from a second area with a large table for the crew mess, but that can also be used as an extra space for the Owner and an extension of the main kitchen.
If the exterior of the upper deck is completely dedicated to the sun and relaxation, it has a very original interior layout. Indoors, you will find here a gaming area and comfortable sofas for the media room. A bent glass screen wall serves as a sculptural entrance into the wheelhouse.
Dropping below to the lower deck, a central lobby leads to the four guest cabins. The two VIP queen size cabins are towards the stern, while the remaining two have twin berths with additional Pullman bunks. All have their own private bathroom. Farther forward we have the laundry and crew area.
The performance of the BENETTI FAST 125’s D2P-Displacement to Planing® hull form with wave piercer is also equipped with an innovative series of Azipods. During sea trails performance was better than expected with a top speed of 24 knots, two more than were theorized in design.
Her revolutionary hull form allows the Owner to use the yacht both in displacement mode with low fuel consumption for slow deliveries and at higher speeds in complete comfort. The quiet ride was obtained through the use of her special propulsion system which allows the engine room to be placed farther aft, providing increased isolation for the guest cabins. The FAST 125′ was awarded the RINA Comfort Class classification, which proves how silent and smooth her ride is.
The yacht’s excellent performance is also due to the lightness of the hull, thanks to the introduction of fibreglass and carbon fibre in the superstructure. This intelligent combination gives the yacht a 40% lighter weight when compared to traditional structures, where light weight equals improved performance.

LAYOUT
Main Deck:- One can board the vessel either by the side-boarding ladder amidships or by the telescopic passarelle. This deck consists of the Master stateroom near the bow, the galley to the port side, day-head to starboard, a beautiful main saloon, and aft deck. The entire exterior deck is laid with teak while the interior design uses a combination of carpet and stone
- With the large settees and cocktail/ dining table, the aft deck is a popular place for guests. The table can be quickly expanded, raised, and lowered to suit. A large double glass door opens automatically to provide entrance to the main saloon. Access to the swim platform/beach club or bridge deck is also provided via large built-in, teak-laden stairs
- The main saloon has been designed to be used and enjoyed by guests rather than being an afterthought. Beautiful, comfortable lounge-style sofas provide a relaxing place to watch the world go by through large, full-height windows. The visibility and light in the main saloon are extraordinary. An interior formal dining table comfortably accommodates a party of 10 guests
- The galley is located amidships on the port side and consists of the main galley with a stewardess pantry for guest services
- The Master stateroom is beautifully framed between 4 huge windows, 2 to port and 2 to starboard. Because these windows are split horizontally rather than vertically, it allows the owner to see the ocean and horizon while seated, standing, or lying down. A King-sized bed on the centreline has custom designed side tables and a large flat screen TV on the forward wall
- The His-and-Hers en-suite bathroom is beautifully decorated with matching grey granite on the floor, counter tops, and shower. Each person has a private head, sink, and vanity while sharing an oversized rain shower in between
- The lower deck is home to four guest staterooms amidships, the crew quarters in the bow, the engine room, tender garage, and beach club
- Moving down from the center guest foyer, you will find four beautifully appointed guest staterooms. The 2 aft staterooms have Queen-sized berths, and the 2 forward cabins are fitted with twin berths and an additional Pullman berth each. All feature large en-suite bathrooms, and full entertainment systems
- Accessed from the galley area at the bottom of the stairs to port is a crew mess and crew galley. On the port side is a laundry facility with a Miele washer and dryer. Forward of this are 3 crew staterooms, each with 2 twin berths and en-suite bathroom facilities
- The engine room is accessed via doors and stairs from the port main deck sidewalk. The yacht is equipped with all of the latest state-of-the-art mechanical equipment for world-wide cruising, including the main engines, generators, zero-speed stabilizers, and air conditioning
- A starboard hull garage door opens to allow storage and lateral launching of a Williams 445 jet tender and possibility for an additional wave runner
- The beach club and swim platform are the focal point of all water activities on the boat. When open, guests have a full beam water deck to enjoy any kind of water sports or simply relax in front of the beautiful view.
- This deck is a beautiful combination of design elements that allows you to easily connect the large upper aft deck and the full-beam skylounge with a series of connected full height sliding glass doors. With the glass closed, you have two separate areas, one air-conditioned with gaming table and media room and one with fresh air, that both have beautiful views across the horizons. With the glass doors open, you have a massive deck capable of hosting any number of guests
- On the upper aft deck, beautiful freestanding settees can be used for relaxing or sunbathing. Just under the covered area is a large dining table that can be expanded to accommodate up to 12 guests
- The wheelhouse is very well-designed with state-of-the-art equipment, excellent visibility, and substantial space for crew on watch. In addition to a full suite of navigation and communication equipment for full commercial operation of the yacht, the Captain’s Quarters are located conveniently nearby with a full berth and en-suite bathroom
- The forward sundeck is a feature not commonly found on yachts of any size. Effectively a 5th sundeck for the guests, the unique feature of the area is the Jacuzzi that is built into the middle of a massive outside lounge area. This sun deck is perfect for privacy when backed into ports around the Mediterranean. It is easily covered with umbrella-style shades to filter the sun on hot days, or it can be left uncovered for those seeking full sun
- Guests can enjoy a massive sundeck, featuring a full service wet bar. In addition to the five built-in barstools, the large cushioned teak settees on the starboard side are a perfect place to enjoy a cocktail and watch game on the 42-inch flat screen behind the bar. Two multi-function tables that have the capability to be expanded and raised/lowered to suit any occasion, complement the settees. An additional Jacuzzi was fitted aft in 2021 and a retractable awning, built into the fiberglass hardtop, allows you to enjoy this area in sun or shade as preferred. To the aft of the deck are 4 oversized, cushioned chaise lounges for sunbathing that can be protected by the built-in umbrellas to either side. The entire deck is covered in teak to provide an elegant, comfortable setting
