PHOENIX ONE

Phoenix One — 35m, Benetti-designed Australia's coastline is one of those cruising grounds that rewards a yacht built for range as much as for comfort. At 35 metres and Benetti-designed, Phoenix One has both, and a 2024 refit behind her — the kind of recent work that shows in the details rather than needing to be announced. Accommodation is arranged over four cabins for eight guests: an owner's cabin, a VIP cabin, and two further cabins each fitted with twin beds. Detailed bed configuration is available on request. It's a layout that suits a family group or two couples travelling together without anyone feeling they drew the short straw. Where Phoenix One distinguishes herself is in versatility. She works as a mothership for serious fishing programmes, reaching grounds that day boats simply can't access, then returns you to a proper dinner and a proper bed. She also takes on weddings, corporate gatherings and private functions — the deck space and the service standard hold up to all of it. The crew handle the rest: itinerary, logistics, and the quiet, unobtrusive rhythm that separates a chartered yacht from a hotel with a view.
