How to choose
Friendship wins on space and refinement — a true 115ft Benetti with a master suite on the main deck. Choose for ten guests who want quiet luxury and a long week.
Dark Knight is the sportier sister, ideal for groups who plan more time at sea than at anchor. The hull cruises happily at 22 knots, fuel burn notable.
La Romana sits between the two — slightly more relaxed than Dark Knight, slightly more performance-led than Friendship. The sweet spot for many of our repeat clients.
