The yacht has a steel hull and aluminum superstructure. Exteriors are by Cassetta Yacht Designers. Benetti’s Style Department handled the interiors.

First look: On board the 67m Benetti Calex
Having been launched in February 2022, the 67-metre Benetti yacht, Calex has remained a closely guarded secret. Now offered for charter for the first time BOAT looks at her contemporary interiors ahead of her inaugural charter season.
Delivered to an experienced American owner in spring 2022, the 67-metre Calex was something of a first for Benetti , being the first custom project of this size to fully comply with TIER III regulations. The accreditation is thanks to a scrubbing system for the exhaust gases from both the propulsion and generating systems.
With an exterior designed by Giorgio M. Cassetta Calex is an entirely custom project built in steel and aluminium with a seven-cabin layout that can accommodate 14 guests. The owners specifically requested that the crew quarters include materials and furnishings of a similar quality to those used in the guest accommodation, making working conditions on board more comfortable for her 17 crewmembers.
The interiors of the superyacht are by Benetti's in-house team working closely with the owner and feature a blend of light and dark shades, white sculptures and marble accents.
Calex has six decks, with special attention paid to the owner’s deck, which occupies 160 square metres and includes a lounge with bar and a 180-degree view that still offers complete privacy. The sliding glass doors of the master cabin leads to a private open-air lounge forward with two white curved sofas and loose furniture.
The master cabin also features a private office, a spa-like double bathroom with marble, frosted glass and wooden features.
Calex’s six further guest cabins include two VIP cabins on the main deck, two kings, and two convertible twin cabins with Pullmans on the lower deck. All cabins have marble ensuite bathrooms and something of a flexible layout, in line with charter clients, with various locations available to provide the perfect spots for socialising or choosing to relax in solitude.
The main saloon is bright and filled with cream furniture and wooden accents. Calex has a large U-shaped sofa, armchairs, a fully stocked bar and dining table. Thanks to a glass elevator connecting the interior decks the yacht is also accessible.
Out on deck, there are plenty of alfresco options for days spent basking in the Bahamian sun. Guests can enjoy meals and entertainment on the main deck aft and upper deck aft, surrounded by uninterrupted vistas.
The sundeck also offers a dedicated space for workouts and yoga. There’s a Jacuzzi and ample space for relaxation. The bridge deck features an outdoor lounge area and a bar. Leading down to the water – and considered one of Calex’s most exceptional features – is the beach club, which has a hammam, another bar, and television and toy and tender storage.
Calex will spend her inaugural season in the Bahamas and Caribbean before cruising over to the Mediterranean. Managed for charter with Northrop and Johnson, she has a weekly charter rate from $680,000.

CALEX Yacht for Charter
The revolutionary 2022 Benetti superyacht CALEX is a vision of class and opulence. Bespoke in every detail, this 219’ (67m) charter yacht showcases a completely custom design with a magnificent owner’s suite complete with its own private exterior lounge space. In fact, charter yacht CALEX’s sweeping layout won her the award for Best Layout at the 2022 World Yacht Trophies. Her sleek exterior design is courtesy of Giorgio Cassetta, while her award-winning interior was brought to life by a collaboration between Benetti and the owner’s design team.
CALEX’s interior is adorned with a beautiful mix of light and dark shades, white statuary, gleaming marble and stunning ivory-color furnishings giving an overall feeling of serenity. Guests can admire the rare sculptures and treasures picked up along the yacht’s travels. The main salon is designed to be a social space with a huge U-shaped sofa, armchairs, a full bar, pop-up TV and a dedicated dining table. Accessibility has been carefully considered aboard. Guests can effortlessly travel between the many interior decks in the stunning glass elevator. The deck furniture also can be configured depending on requirements. CALEX’s exceptional Benetti craftsmanship and clever use of space are demonstrated throughout the entire yacht, enveloping guests in luxury from deck to deck.
CALEX welcomes 12 guests in seven warm and modern staterooms. The vast master suite is situated on the upper deck with a clear focus on privacy and relaxation. With a private office, spa-like double bathroom and their own private foredeck, this is the epitome of on-water luxury. This stateroom’s 180-degree views can be admired while in bed, or guests can head through the automatic doors to the completely private open-air hangout. CALEX’s six guest cabins, two VIPs on the main deck, two kings and two convertible twins with Pullmans on the lower deck all offer the same chic marble ensuite bathrooms. CALEX’s clever layout is extremely charter-friendly, with versatile guest accommodations and many different zones for guests to enjoy depending on their mood.
This charter yacht is a dream for those seeking to take advantage of all things alfresco. From the main deck aft and upper deck aft, guests can enjoy meals and entertainment surrounded by unbeatable views. CALEX’s sundeck is second to none, with a dedicated workout and yoga space, a Jacuzzi and plenty of space to recline. Her bridge deck has an outdoor area with a lounge and bar. In our opinion, her best feature is the five-star beach club. For those interested in hanging out waterside in style, this prime real estate invites guests to rejuvenate in the hammam, rehydrate at the bar, watch the game on TV or enjoy the vast array of watersports on offer.

The owner of 67-metre Benetti Calex certainly did for many years, until the size requirements of his boat pushed him across the Atlantic. Before his first Benetti, David Wilson owned a succession of Westport yachts, moving from a 34-metre Westport 112 to a 40-metre and then built a 50-metre, which he and his family enjoyed for many years.
Powered by two MTU engines, CALEX can reach a top speed of 16 knots and has a cruising speed of 14 knots. The Benetti Design Team masterfully crafted CALEX's interior to accommodate 14 guests and a crew of 17. The yacht CALEX is owned by David Wilson, the owner of the Wilson Automotive Group.
