Beneteau Oceanis 473

A superbly optioned and exceptionally well-maintained example of these highly regarded Bluewater/liveaboard cruising yachts with new sails and rigging, and lots of other recent updates. This is the more popular owner’s layout which offers two excellent cabins with ensuites, a larger galley and the substantial storage locker aft of the galley on the starboard side which is also accessible from the cockpit.

This example is optioned for ease of handling with an in-mast furling mainsail, furling genoa and an MPS in a sock, while both the primary winches and halyard winch are electric. In addition, it has a bow-thruster and a remote for the autopilot.

Mounted on the Bimini are 3 x 140W Victron solar panels, the yacht has a 2000W invertor, and a Paguro 4000 generator driving air-conditioning and a Rainman water maker.

The custom davits and outboard crane are a bonus for extended cruising and the Rocna anchor with 100m of chain provide the best holding you could hope for.

A comprehensive and high-quality canvas package, including covers on all hatches provide the best shade and protection.

Down below the full-sized nav’ station is forward facing and incorporates a 9” plotter to complement the new Hybrid Pro in the cockpit. To starboard is the larger L-shaped galley which incorporates a double fridge, one being front loading, 3-burner stove, and microwave. The saloon has a bench seat to port and U-shaped dinette that converts into an additional double. The guest cabin with ensuite/day head is aft to port and is King sized, while the owner’s cabin is forward with an island style double and head with dedicated shower stall.

This really is an immaculate and extremely well-maintained yacht with nothing to spend. It’s ready to fulfill your dreams!
