Benetti 46M

Leigh-Smith Yachts is proud to represent as worldwide central agents this iconic Benetti 46M, Mistress, to the market.

Mistress is an iconic 46-metre Benetti with the scale, character, and presence to make a statement wherever she cruises. Built in 1991 and extensively refitted in 2024, she combines classic superyacht pedigree with generous entertaining spaces, substantial onboard amenities, and the capability for extended voyages.

Classic Benetti pedigree

Constructed by Benetti to a design by Stefano Natucci, with interiors by French designer Zuretti, Mistress features a robust steel hull and aluminium superstructure. Her 46-metre length and 8.82-metre beam create an impressive platform for entertaining, relaxing, and travelling in comfort. She is classed as a Pleasure Yacht with unrestricted navigation.

Space for family and guests
Mistress accommodates up to 10 guests in five cabins. The main-deck owner's suite features a king bed and two en-suite bathrooms. Guest accommodation comprises two queen cabins, one double cabin, and two single cabins, each with an en-suite bathroom.

Up to nine crew members are accommodated in four en-suite cabins, plus the captain's private en-suite cabin on the bridge deck--supporting attentive service and comfortable extended stays aboard.

Designed for life on board
The yacht's extensive amenities are tailored to life at sea and at anchor. Guests can unwind in the 1,500-litre jacuzzi, enjoy the sauna, or make use of the gym. A hospitality elevator connects the galley, bar, and sundeck, while two 800-kilogram hydraulic fold-away cranes support tender and equipment handling.
