Superyacht Diamonds Are Forever is Launched

“Diamonds Are Forever”, this the name of the new custom megayacht launched on Saturday 26th November 2011 at the state of the art Benetti shipyard in Livorno. 

 

The boat’s official identification is Benetti FB253 60mt, but for its owner it’s “Diamonds Are Forever” the official name of the yacht given by Mr John Staluppi, an established ship owner who has always been a fan of the James Bond saga.

 

Based on Benetti naval architecture and engineering, the elegant external line of the new FB253 Diamonds Are Forever is characterised by compact forms and dynamic slender lines: a balanced combination of traditional design elements and modern innovative stylistic solutions which have become the shipyard’s distinguishing mark throughout the world.

 

On board, customisation to meet the needs and desires of the ship owner is total: the particular arrangement of the cabins, the location of the wheelhouse on the flybridge, the interior design and decor, the engine room made entirely of stainless steel and the addition of the top deck above the flybridge, a private panoramic deck 12 metres above the sea which can be reached by the glass lift that serves all the yacht decks.
