Benetti, recognized as one of the world's greatest shipyards, never seems to miss the mark when designing luxury yachts. The 55-meter Ocean Paradise continues the company's 140-year history of excellence.
Ocean Paradise has an inspired design that makes the most of Benetti's custom-built technology to offer its owner a unique experience while traveling the world in style.
Ocean Paradise's Specifications
Ocean Paradise has a range of 4,000 nautical miles when traveling at 12 knots. She has a 15-knot maximum cruising speed and can reach a maximum speed of 17 knots. She gets her power from a CAT 3512C engine that creates 1765 kW (2,400 horsepower) at 1,800 RPM. Ocean Paradise has two 155 kW Northern Lights generators and one 80 kW Northern Lights generator.
The 55-meter yacht has a fuel tank that can hold 73,800 liters (19,500 gallons). She has a fresh water tank that holds 15,200 liters (400 gallons). A Idromar 2 reverse osmosis watermaker provides up to 12,000 liters (3,100 gallons) per day, making it possible for the owner, his guests, and his crew to travel long distances without concern.
Benetti has the advantage of outfitting their yachts with the BEST (Benetti Exclusive Sea Technology) system. This domotic system gives the owner and crew easy control over every aspect from the interior lighting to the engines.
Integrated Bridge technology also lets the crew monitor all onboard systems. The system alerts crew members of any malfunctions. It also lets them control the air conditioning system when traveling through a variety of weather conditions.
A Look Inside Ocean Paradise
Ocean Paradise has four guest cabins located in the lower deck. Each cabin has its own bath, giving guests the privacy they need on board the ship. Cabins also have large portholes that let guests see outside. This gives them a connection to the ocean at all times so they never forget that they're aboard a luxury yacht instead of staying in a high-priced hotel.
The owner gets a specially designed suite located in the main deck's forward portion. The suite stretches across the yacht's full width, providing ample room for the owners. It also features an en suite bathroom and a balcony terrace that gives the owner access to the outside at any time.
When creating the Ocean Paradise's interior, Benetti had to pay close attention to the owner's demands. The successful businessman has a passion for interior design, so he wanted significant input. This pushed Benetti to create an interior unlike that found on any other yacht.
Lighting plays a key role in Ocean Paradise's interior aesthetic. Natural light floods the interior through windows and a crystal skylight. Artificial lighting comes from LED and LED RGB fixtures that are connected temperature controlled to compliment the natural light. This creates the illusion of seamless light throughout the yacht.
Transparent surfaces inside Ocean Paradise create display cases for plants. This adds greenery that makes the inside feel more natural. Carefully chosen plants bring rooms to life while adding to the calming presence of encased Zen gardens.
For those who prefer excitement over the relaxation of a Zen garden, Ocean Paradise offers a foredeck area that holds jet-skis. If guests would rather explore the surrounding area in the tender, they can find it located in the ship's garage, making it easy for them to visit the shore whenever the feeling strikes.
Ocean Paradise's Above Deck Design
Benetti's designers also had to create unique spaces for areas located above deck. The sun deck, for instance, has a waterfall that creates a place where guests can relax in the sun while enjoying the sound of gently falling water.
The sun deck also has a gym, oversized swimming pool, and a mini bar that contains a DJ console. This kind of careful attention makes Ocean Paradise perfect for any event, whether that means getting some exercise or hosting a party.
Even the deck furniture was specifically chosen to create a flexible ambiance. Each piece gives guests a beautiful view of the ocean while also creating a comfortable place for them to relax or socialize. Most yacht owners say that they have special areas that welcome guests. With Ocean Paradise, though, the owner knows that he has a place where every guest will feel happy and comfortable.
Benetti has been building yachts for nearly one and half centuries. This has given its team the experience needed to tackle complex requirements from the most demanding yacht owners. With Ocean Paradise, Benetti has once again proven that it can complete practically any challenge, even when it comes from an owner with extremely discerning tastes and a deep knowledge of design aesthetics.
