Beneteau may be best known for building sailboats, but new models like the Gran Turismo 49 Fly are changing their reputation. The GT 49 Fly is the flagship of this line, with perks like a spiral staircase to the bridge, a large main saloon, and a galley-down arrangement kept bright and airy with an atrium. The boat also has three separate staterooms, and wide side-decks. Get a closer look in this quick video from the Cannes boat show.
