Spanning 177 feet (54 meters) in length, with a beam of 31.5 feet (9.60 meters), and a draft of 11 feet (3.30 meters), STARFIRE weighs 747 tons and her steel hull and aluminum superstructure enable graceful cruising at 12 knots, with a top speed of 15 knots.  At cruise speed, she burns an efficient 81 gallons per hour (307 liters). STARFIRE has undergone significant refits, with the most recent in 2023.

Designed as a true displacement motoryacht, STARFIRE was built for long range, extensive world cruising. These waters included the Atlantic, Pacific, and Indian Oceans, as well as the Mediterranean, Caribbean, Baltic, and Red Seas. STARFIRE has earned a sterling reputation among brokers and guests alike. STARFIRE's spacious layout features beautiful interior woods and multiple decks. Her exceptional interior decoration was designed by the highly acclaimed Francois Zuretti and offers an abundance of accommodation and entertainment areas for the Owner and their guests. The style is predominantly “Art Déco” with a touch of the exotic from the Orient.

Furthermore, STARFIRE boasts an exceptional crew with long-standing tenure, emphasizing the importance of a harmonious onboard atmosphere. The original owner foresaw the challenges of working and living together, leading to the creation of a full-beam Crew Mess divided into two parts: a crew lounge and dining area. Additionally, space was designated for six individual desks for department heads, offering both communal and private areas for crew members to collaborate and focus.

Powered by twin Deutz engines, Starfire has a remarkable range of up to 5,900 nautical miles from its 37,000 gallons (140,000-liters) fuel tanks at cruising speed. Equipped with an advanced stabilization system ensuring guests enjoy unparalleled comfort whether anchored or underway.

Demonstrating a consistent performance over the past five years, with 940 sea days, 387 charter days, and 321 days of owner usage, STARFIRE has successfully traversed the Atlantic, Pacific, Indian Oceans, along with the Mediterranean, Caribbean, Baltic, and Red Seas. Throughout these voyages, STARFIRE has built an exceptional reputation, receiving acclaim from brokers and guests alike. Remarkably, she has upheld an impeccable track record, never failing to fulfill a charter or owner trip.

Without doubt, one of Benetti’s flagship motoryachts, she clearly sets the standards and trends for future vessels. An outstanding opportunity in today’s market that is ideally suited to both private and charter use. Consistently booked for 12 weeks annually, this vessel boasts a proven track record of success in the charter market, affirming its desirability and reliability among charter clients worldwide.

The vessel features a raised semi-circular seating area with a table at the forward section. Amidships, there's a large stack housing a sauna, dayhead, separate shower, and a glass-enclosed massage room. Aft of this area, there are storage lockers and firefighting lockers on both port and starboard sides. A covered exterior marble dining table for eight guests is situated aft of the massage room, accompanied by a full bar and three bar stools to starboard.

Amidships, there's a large Jacuzzi dip-pool with stairs leading down to the boat deck on the port side. A spacious, full-beam movable settee is positioned aft, accompanied by a pop-up 42” TV for watching movies under the stars. Additionally, there are two three-seater couches and two comfortable chairs.

Remarkably, the furniture can be rearranged to convert the area into a large helicopter landing pad with fixing points and removable railings at the aft section. The helicopter tiedowns are currently repurposed as poles for the three-section sun awning.

Forward of the wheelhouse is a second exterior semi-circular seating area with a table, providing a quiet retreat away from the group. Ahead of this seating area is a walkway leading to the foredeck, where two anchor windlasses and a hatch to the anchor locker are located, storing extra fenders and lines. The foredeck also houses a 3,000lbs SWL rescue crane on the port side, two sets of wave runner chocks, and space in the center for a 15ft tender. A bosun’s store is situated in the forward part of the superstructure, along with air-handling units and crew escape hatches.

Moving aft, the wheelhouse features port and starboard bridge wings control stations, with stairs on either side leading down to the main deck. Inside the wheelhouse, there are two leather sofas and a helmsman’s position, along with two desks (port & starboard) and a spacious chart table amidships, serving as ample workstations and the ship’s office for the Chief Officer and Chief Stewardess.

Having dedicated workspaces for the crew sets STARFIRE apart from other yachts in her size range and contributes to crew longevity. The Captain’s cabin, located to starboard, includes a queen-size bed for two crew members, a desk with dual monitors displaying navigational equipment and CCTV cameras.

In the Pilothouse, there are two desks adjacent to each other, one for the Chief Officer and one for the Chief Stewardess

On the port side behind the bridge is the upper pantry, equipped with two refrigerators, a coffee machine, sink, and dishwasher, with an internal crew stairwell leading to the lower pantry. A door aft of the upper pantry leads to the upper foyer, providing access to the VIP Cabin, top deck, main deck foyer, or upper salon.

The VIP queen cabin, known as the "room with the view," is located to starboard and boasts two large windows with blackout shades, a queen-sized bed, a desk, and a small couch under the windows. Its ensuite bathroom features a bathtub and a beautiful stainless steel shell sink.

Adjacent to the VIP cabin, the upper foyer leads to a vast upper deck salon spanning the yacht's full width, featuring a fireplace, spacious seating, and a fully equipped wet bar. Glass sliding doors open to a fully enclosed formal upper dining area with a large table for 10 guests, allowing plenty of natural daylight and offering an option for al-fresco dining.

The upper aft deck is equipped with a davit for storing toys during extensive sea passages and in normal guest operations offers a spacious dining area with a teak table and chairs, accommodating up to twelve. Moreover, a discreetly concealed slide box with a comfortable cushion atop it is present, along with two teak chairs tucked into a cozy nook by the flagpole and storage lockers around the perimeter of the deck.  Stairways provide access to the sundeck and lead down to the aft deck on the port side.

Descending from the upper foyer is a comfortable staircase leading to the lower foyer, where you'll find a door to the starboard main deck for greeting guests when docked on the starboard side. Adjacent to the staircase is an elegant dayhead featuring a delicate gold sink.

The Owner’s cabin, situated directly forward of the staircase, boasts a sitting room furnished with two comfortable chairs and a roll-top desk. A 42-inch TV, enclosed in a picture frame, and a wet bar are also provided in this space. Double doors from the sitting room lead to the full-width master cabin, characterized by large oval windows with blackout shades. The master cabin features a California king bed centrally positioned facing forward, with a pop-up TV at the foot of the bed. On the port side, there's a lounging chair with an ottoman, along with a vanity equipped with power outlets. The starboard side offers a chair and dresser for additional garments. Before entering the bathroom on either side, there are two large closets, which can be locked to secure the owner's personal items during charters. The master bathroom spans the full beam, featuring a large bathtub at the centerline and a spacious shower accessible from either side. Her side of the bathroom includes a sink, enclosed lavatory with a bidet, and an escape door to the bosun's locker, while his side features a sink and enclosed lavatory. The ensuite is tastefully designed with honey onyx, gold sinks, and fixtures.

From the main foyer, there is access to the lower pantry and a stairwell leading to the crew mess. The lower pantry is well-equipped with storage cabinets, a sink, ample counter space, dishwasher, fridge, and icemaker. A door from the main pantry leads to the main dining room, situated just forward on the port side. The galley, adjacent to the lower pantry, features an island-style cook space with an induction top and two ovens. With two sinks and generous space, it accommodates two chefs working simultaneously. Three large fridges and one smaller deep produce fridge provide ample storage, and a large window and desk enhance the workspace for the culinary team.

Moving aft from the main deck guest entrance lobby, you'll find the formal dining room, adorned with a marble circular table for 12 guests and a pre-Lalique chandelier. Surrounding the room are cabinets made of cherry and Lacewood for storage and marble countertops for service. The formal dining room connects, via beautifully-etched pocket glass doors, to the main salon, featuring a full wet bar aft to port. Seating includes two three-person couches forward and aft, two chairs starboard, and two comfortable chairs with ottomans on the port side. A 50-inch pop-up TV is located on the starboard side. The overheads are a stacked beige pattern, and the floors are a stained wood with an Asian rug. A marble stairway to starboard leads down to the guest cabins, while sliding glass doors open from white marble to a covered teak aft deck with seating for up to 14 guests at the dining table, which can be converted into a low coffee table. Aft of the sliding doors, countertops and storage lockers are situated on both port and starboard sides. The walkaround decks provide access to cleaning and fire lockers. Fueling can be done from the main deck at three locations: port, starboard, or aft. An open staircase to port leads down to the swimming platform/lazarette with a stern folding door, and a stairwell leads to the bridge deck aft.

The swim deck boasts a large hydraulic stern door that folds down effortlessly and turns into a swim platform. Ample storage can be found in the aft cupboards, along with a convenient day head and shower. On the starboard side of the platform, an open shower provides the perfect spot for rinsing off salt before heading indoors. This deck offers plenty of space for sunbathing or facilitating the loading and unloading of guests from the Tender.

Descending from the main deck salon down the guest stairs reveals a spacious foyer. Equipped with a small fridge and countertop, this area is ideal for serving coffee and morning bites. The two aft cabins on this level are identical, each featuring queen beds, a day couch, and a desk. Marble showers and sinks add a touch of luxury to the bathrooms, while ample closet and drawer space ensure convenience. The forward two cabins are furnished with twin beds and one fold-down pullman in each room. These cabins also feature small desks and bathrooms with marble showers and sinks. Large portlights offer stunning ocean views, and 30-inch TVs provide entertainment in all four rooms.

Taking the stairway from the main pantry leads to the crew mess and lounge, a remarkable space for a 54m yacht. The crew enjoys a spacious dining area accommodating up to 14 crew members, complete with its own microwave, stove, oven, and dishwasher. Additionally, there's a comfortable sitting area on the port side where seven crew members can relax on the couch and watch TV. The two spaces are separated by cabinetry and storage, with large portlights and CCTV monitors enhancing functionality. This setup contributes to STARFIRE's excellent crew longevity, providing ample space for the crew to spread out and unwind.

All crew accommodation is situated forward, featuring five double bunk bed cabins and a chief engineer’s cabin with twin beds and a pullman bunk. The Chief Officer's cabin is equipped with a large desk and workspace. At the end of the crew hallway, an escape hatch leads to the foredeck, while a storage area and access to the bow thruster compartment can be found under the forward crew stairs.

Descending one deck lower to the tank deck reveals a large drink fridge, walk-in fridge, freezer, and dry storage pantry. The ship’s laundry facility is equipped with three Miele washers, three dryers, ample counter space, and a Laurastar ironing board.

Direct access from the crew stairs leads to the engine room via the sound-shielded control room. The control room provides space for two engineers and a well-appointed desk workstation. The engine room itself is exceptionally spacious and thoughtfully laid out and had a full repaint in 2024.
