Yacht Description
Two Jacuzzis, one yacht. PATIENCE is a 132-foot Benetti built in 2012 and refit in 2024, with the rare party trick of two on-deck Jacuzzis: one on the sun deck and one up on the bow. Different moods, same dress code. Optional.
Comfort at anchor. Zero-speed Naiad stabilizers work both at anchor and underway, which makes long lunches and movie nights feel less like a physics lesson. Add the upgraded 2024 AV setup with Starlink and you can stay connected when you actually want to.
Serious water time. The toy list is not shy: a 2018 39' SeaVee Z tender, two Yamaha VX Cruiser wave runners, two Seabobs (new 2024), and a Lift eFoil (new 2024). Plus wakeboards, water skis, towables, paddleboards, kayaks, and snorkel gear.
Sleep setup for 10. PATIENCE sleeps 10 guests in 5 cabins, including a full-beam primary suite with a study and dressing room, plus three doubles and two twins. Easy for families, and still workable for couples who like their own space.
