1986 Beneteau First 32510m

Beneteau First 325, built and kept in Swansea by her single owner from new this boat has been loved by her owner and is now looking for a new owner to take her on the next stage of her adventure. 

The current owner recounts happy memories of sailing the boat around the UK coastal waters and to Northern France, the boat has always performed very well in all conditions and has always been reliable and rewarding to sail. 

She would suit in particular a young family or cruising couple looking for a decent coastal sailboat offering fast and engaging sailing with a comfortable saloon and berths for relaxing in harbour or at anchor. 

Both cabins require some attention to the headlining but the lining in the saloon appears fine. She is supplied with a single mainsail and a brand new (2021) Genoa that has never been used.

Fundamentally, with a small amount of investment, she will be an excellent proposition for anyone who is looking for a reasonable and enjoyable sailing yacht.

Part Exchange Considered and Finance Available.
