About AMPHITRITE
A timeless expression of Italian yacht craftsmanship, Amphitrite is a rare opportunity to acquire one of only five Benetti 26D models ever built. This gentleman’s yacht encapsulates an era of classic yachting elegance, reimagined for contemporary cruising with thoughtful enhancements and a meticulous refit completed between 2021 and 2022.
The aft cockpit is a shaded haven beneath the flybridge deck, offering a peaceful space for outdoor dining and relaxation. It features a circular table with flexible seating, ideal for enjoying views in comfort. Above, the flybridge is fitted with a fixed metalframe sun awning and a removable bimini aft, enhancing shade and comfort. The exterior teak decks, recently re-caulked and refinished, add visual warmth and a traditional yachting aesthetic.
Designed by Luca Catino, the interior balances classic elegance with modern functionality. Refitted in 2022 by the Owner’s wife, the saloon is bright and welcoming, flooded with natural light from large windows. A central dining table seats six comfortably, extendable to eight for larger gatherings. Toward the bow, a relaxed lounge area features an L-shaped sofa, armchair, pouf and coffee table, alongside a 65” television. To port, a staircase leads to the guest accommodation, while a separate set of stairs by the galley provides discreet access to the crew quarters, ensuring complete privacy for all guests. The enclosed galley is spacious and well-ventilated, fully equipped with modern appliances including a full-size refrigerator, induction cooktop, built-in oven and microwave, dishwasher, and a convenient washer-dryer unit.
Amphitrite accommodates up to eight guests across four ensuite cabins. The master stateroom offers a generous double bed, while the three guest cabins each feature twin berths. All cabins are appointed with private bathrooms and their own televisions, ensuring a relaxing onboard experience. The crew quarters, suitable for four, are accessed independently, maintaining guest privacy and a smooth operational flow.
Powered by twin GM Detroit Diesel engines overhauled in 2022, Amphitrite delivers reliable performance with low engine hours. New batteries were installed in February 2025, and she is scheduled for dry docking in May for annual maintenance, including antifouling and teak upkeep. Her robust engineering, paired with considered upgrades and continuous care, ensures readiness for her next voyage.
