Overview
About this vessel
A pedigreed explorer yacht that rarely comes to market. KING BENJI became an overnight star, featured on the cover of BOAT International in March 2024 at launch and later winning Best Interior Design at the 2025 Design & Innovation Awards. Few yachts in the sought-after 45 60m category have received such immediate and ongoing acclaim.
Conceived by designer Greg Marshall, KING BENJI reimagines the 45m explorer Big Fish. The yacht centers social life around an elevated teppanyaki bar with sweeping views, offers 10 dining areas, a crow s nest with 360 panorama, and large window seating with cinematic ocean views. The owner s deck connects fore and aft for natural airflow and features an outdoor rain shower and Japanese-style hot-and-cold plunge pools overlooking the bow.
The expansive aft deck with a 10-tonne crane doubles as a lounge and adventure hub, carrying a 12m Nor-Tech tender, jet skis, eFoils, Seabobs, scuba and sportfishing gear, towables, floating platforms, a giant waterslide, and climbing frame.
Interiors by Mark Tucker s team at Design Unlimited blend wood, leather, and bamboo for a warm, inviting feel. Floor-to-ceiling, sill-less sliding doors flood the main saloon and sky lounge with natural light, creating seamless indoor-outdoor living. Guest areas feature distinctive marine-themed design and flexible bedding (twins or king).
KING BENJI is a 47-meter explorer yacht offering exceptional volume, long-range cruising, and a versatile layout suited for both private ownership and charter. Built with a steel hull and composite superstructure, she combines expedition capability, stability, and refined onboard living 60making her a standout opportunity in the global explorer yacht market.
