The yachting industry has no global listing service to which all charter yachts must subscribe to, making it impossible to ascertain a truly up-to-date view of the market. Charter Index is a news and information service and not always informed when yachts leave the charter market, or when they are recently sold and renamed, it is not always clear if they are still for charter. Whilst we endeavour to maintain accurate information, the existence of a listing on Charter Index should in no way supersede official documentation supplied by the representatives of a yacht.

Benetti Yachts Launches Superyacht “Checkmate” for U.S. Client

After the traditional breaking of the champagne bottle across her bows, the superyacht slipped smoothly into the Mediterranean from a specially built yacht ramp to the notes of Giuseppe Verdi’s “Và Pensiero”.

Present at the ceremony were the owner (a well known yacht owner / surgeon from Washington, D.C. ) and his family, together with all the Benetti Yachts yard staff involved in her almost 2 year long construction and fitting out.

CEO of the Mega-yacht division of the the Azimut /Benetti Group, Vincenzo Poerio, declared during the ceremony: “ We are particularly proud of our latest launch, the 100th fiberglass yacht built in Viareggio since 1998. This is a further demonstration of Benetti’s ability to listen to the Client and interpret his specific needs; and above all, another example of a perfect blend between timeless design, world class construction, safety and an extremely high quality on-board life, both for the owner and his crew ”.

Her on-deck master suite allows for stunning 180-degree panoramic views, a completely private foredeck seating and sunning area, an owners study and generous his-and-her marble baths. She is the only 145 Benetti with a much larger and totally redesigned skylounge, which flows into her 270-degree enclosed or alfresco dining space. The guest staterooms and crew lounge area are the first ever to have large, wide hull ports offering amazing views. Checkmate’s bridge deck offers multiple seating areas that are located both aft and forward of the wheelhouse. It also provides access to an enormous sundeck with a day head and drop-down flat-screen TV. Thanks to modern anchor stabilizers, Checkmate offers supreme comfort while at the dock or on anchor. Guests are able to may remain connected at all times via high-speed VSAT Internet. Checkmate is fully world-cruising capable thanks to a duel-voltage electrical system and proven heavy displacement hull form with good range. She also earned special recognition from Benetti as its 100th fiberglass yacht built.
