Socializing and Entertaining on Illusion V
Illusion V has several areas that can accommodate parties
of various sizes. The upper deck, however, is the premium
destination for those who wish to socialize while traveling
aboard Illusion V. The upper deck has a dining area that can
seat up to 14 people. It also has a full bar and several sofas for
casual entertaining. This area connects to a saloon with more
than enough room for a party. The saloon features a smaller
dining table, a 75-inch television, and deep sofas.
The sun deck also has plenty of features that attract guests. It
has a pebble-lined pool with unique characteristics. Sun pads
surround the pool while providing access to a full bar that keeps
all guests refreshed during warm days. A lower dining area on the
sun deck creates a distinct spot for guests to enjoy each others’
company while sampling foods grilled on the nearby barbecue.
A glass screen can separate these areas so smoke from the
barbecue does not interfere with conversation and relaxation.
Specifications of Illusion V
Benetti designed Illusion V to exceed the owner’s expectations.
Steel and aluminum construction makes her extremely buoyant
so she can maneuver through shallow waters with ease and
precision. Two Caterpillar engines provide enough power for
her to cruise at 15 knots. When traveling at a slower 12-knot
speed, she has a range of 5,000 nautical miles. That’s an
impressive feat for a yacht with an 800-ton displacement. With
an experienced captain behind her wheel, Illusion V can explore
the world with ease often reserved for smaller, lighter craft.
Illusion V Offers a Wealth of Impressive Amenities
Traveling the world in luxury doesn’t need to become a listless
experience. Surrounded by Illusion V’s beauty, one could easily
slip into a dreamlike state. Illusion V solves this by giving her
guests access to a wealth of impressive amenities that turn her
into a recreational retreat.
Guests who enjoy water sports will want to visit the tender
garage and swimming platform to find a wide range of useful items, including inflatable rafts, wakeboards, water skis, paddleboards, and diving equipment. Thanks to these and other
toys, the ocean becomes a welcoming playground.
The tender and jet skis make it easy for guests to explore nearby
areas. When guests want an adventure, they can visit nearby islands
or travel waterways too narrow or shallow for Illusion V to travel safely.
Guests who just want to take it easy will enjoy an air conditioned
interior. Some outdoor Jacuzzis even have retractable shields that
capture cool air for a comfortable soak at any time of the day or night.
Ship-wide WiFi keeps every guest connected to entertainment
and news from the outside world. iPads located throughout
Illusion V give them control over air conditioning and lighting.
They also give them access to movies, games, and social media.
Benetti teamed with some of the world’s most talented
designers to make Illusion V. She stands true to her name: the
kind of illusion that people dream would come true. For the
owner and his lucky guests, that dream has become reality.
