Beneteau 57
€345.000 EU VAT paid
Description
The Beneteau 57 was enormously successful and remains a compelling option for anyone looking for volume, comfort, ease-of-handling and great sailing performance delivered by her Bruce Farr designed hull. The design is widely respected, with her central cockpit, protected helm position and huge aft deck and well-appointed interior.
We have sold many Beneteau 57s and have had the pleasure of selling One 4 All twice already and we look forward to finding her next owner. She spent her early years in Sweden, mainly under cover, before moving to Malta. Her current owners have kept her in Italy for the past nine years. The 57 is an extremely capable yacht for long passages, and whilst One 4 All has been lightly used many other 57’s have done Atlantic crossings and more.
Her specification benefits from a white hull, offset helm position and a cutter rig which perfectly complement the powered in-mast furling; she is easy to handle and has great sailing performance. She has the usual amenities such as air-conditioning, powered davits, water-maker and a generator.
At the time of launch Beneteau wrote:
‘Designed to eat up the miles with a small crew quickly, safely and in maximum comfort, the Beneteau 57 takes advantage of all the experience of the Beneteau Design Office and Farr Yacht Design, a pair who can do nothing more to prove themselves.
An exceptional model for discerning sailors who want to go on long journeys.’
