Benetti Oasis 36: The next generation of the Oasis family makes its debut in Cannes

With more than 60 units sold and 20 yachts currently under construction, the Oasis range is one of the most successful product lines from the long-established Italian shipyard Benetti. The new Oasis 36 is the result of an intensive dialogue with owners and captains – and translates the experience gained from the day-to-day operation of this fleet into concrete design solutions.

“The Oasis 36 is the result of active listening,” says Sebastiano Vida, Head of Product at Benetti. “It reinterprets naval architecture, interior design and technological innovation – precisely tailored to the lifestyle and priorities of discerning owners.”

Four key pillars

• A better quality of life: The sundeck, Upper Deck terrace and the iconic Oasis Deck (see below) have been significantly enlarged. The interior design creates seamless transitions between the spaces – which are light-filled and spacious. Crew and guest areas are strictly separated.
• Greater range with lower fuel consumption: A newly developed bow bulge developed by Benetti’s research department reduces drag by more than ten per cent at a cruising speed of 10 knots. Fuel consumption is less than 30 litres per hour per engine. The diesel tank capacity saved as a result has been converted into larger waste water tanks with a total capacity of 5,000 litres – enabling longer stays at anchor.
• Acoustic tranquillity: All mechanical movements – from the garage door to the Oasis Deck wings – are now operated entirely by electricity. Hydraulic systems are no longer required. The result: no oil leaks, less maintenance and, above all, significantly less noise and vibration for guests. A quiet, electric unit can also be integrated into the propulsion system – a hybrid system based on Siemens Sisship EcoProp.
• Smart Engineering: The Oasis 36 is fitted with SCR exhaust gas purification systems – on a voluntary basis and going beyond the legal requirements. For predictive maintenance, Benetti is introducing the D.gree platform: digital twins, structural modelling and machine learning monitor the hull, engines and generators in real time and detect anomalies at an early stage.

​The Oasis Deck

Since its introduction, the Oasis Deck has been the defining feature of the entire range – and on the Oasis 36, too, it remains at the heart of the design. The floating platform at the waterline connects the yacht directly to the sea, creating a unique experience between the deck and the water. Thanks to the electric operation of the fold-out wings, the Oasis Deck now opens even more quietly and reliably than before – without hydraulics, without noise, without vibrations.

A tried-and-tested drive concept

Despite the extensive technical innovations, Benetti has retained a classic hull system for the Oasis 36. This decision ensures absolute reliability on long-distance voyages – combined with state-of-the-art on-board electronics and the new hydrodynamically optimised hull. The result is a yacht that is equally well suited to both long cruises and extended anchorages.
