Beneteau Oceanis 37.1: Marina C Arm
The new Oceanis 37.1, which drew many visitors at the recent Sydney Boat Show, impresses not only with her sleek lines but also the extraordinary amount of volume below decks and in the cockpit.
As the successor to one of Beneteau’s top-selling yachts, the Oceanis 38.1, the 37.1 demonstrates Benteau’s continued investment in design innovation and ergonomic layout and is destined to be equally as successful.
This NEW Oceanis 37.1 is available for immediate delivery and you can secure an Open Day Special incentive price of just $495,000 in September
Is she yours? Come and see her at Newport and find out…
Oceanis 34.1: Marina C Arm
This stunning new yacht by Beneteau is the very latest in the Oceanis range.
Since they debuted in 1976 the Beneteau Oceanis has been the world’s most popular brand of cruising yacht. The 34.1 is everything we hoped for and more as our offering in this size range.
She has timeless looks, the very latest in performance hull design by Marc Lombard, the interior and deck volume of a yacht much larger than her size suggests and many options to tailor the boat to suit each owner’s requirements perfectly.
In stock and available for immediate delivery, the 34.1 could be the perfect boat for you.
Oceanis 40.1 : Marina C Arm
The strengths of this cruiser, studied in detail by the architect Marc Lombard and the Beneteau design office, are unrivalled space inside, a huge deck plan and the ability to clock up miles when you are cruising.
Perfect for families, couples and experienced sailors, this versatile 12-meter cruiser is perfectly adaptable to fit the most demanding sailor’s cruising requirements and satisfy their need for comfort and pleasure under sail.
The Oceanis 40.1 comes in several versions. Sailors keen on performance can choose the First Line version, with a longer mast and a greater draught. The in-mast furling system and self-tacking jib will make manoeuvring easier when shorthanded. A classic mast for a semi-full batten mainsail is also available.
First 36 – Marina C Arm
The Beneteau First 36 has a mission to bridge the gap between high-tech development in the world of racing and mainstream racer-cruisers. To be specific, even the standard version of the First 36 will fully plane in a moderate breeze.
The main difference from most of the other boats labelled as cruiser-racer is this: In a First 36 you are no longer locked in displacement speed. The main reason for this is its significantly lower weight.
Going 9, 10 or 11 knots instead of 5, 6 or 7 knots makes sailing more fun. It also makes your cruising radius bigger. You will not only enjoy sailing more with this boat. You will also spend more time under sail.
Available in both cruising and racing versions, with the First 36 the legend continues…
Excess 11 Catamaran – Marina A Arm
On display will be the latest of our Excess Catamarans recently sold to local Australian owner, the Excess11.
At 38 feet in length, she offers internal and external volume typically found in much larger Catamarans and a unique hull design which ensures minimal wetted area below the surface. Combine this with her performance-focused sail plan which delivers more sail area than comparable Catamarans and you’ll soon see why the Excess is described as a genuine sailor’s catamaran for you to enjoy many hours under sail and the thrill of the wind in your hair.
The 3 cabin owners’ version of the Excess 11, although a relatively new brand to the market, has hit a cord with those Catamaran fans who also want the thrill and enjoyment of Sailing. With an oversized sail plan and clever use of new materials to reduce weight without sacrificing rigidity, you spend much more time under sail in an Excess than traditional production catamarans.
The Excess 11 is one of three models in the range that includes the 14 and the newly announced Excess 13, due to be officially launched in early 2025.
She is also the perfect Boat for extensive cruising – we have recently handed over two Excess 14’s to their owners in Europe who are now enjoying cruising the Med before starting their journey back to Australia.
Come and see for yourself the Excess difference on the 21st.
See you on the Marina!
Our Open Day is on at Royal Prince Alfred Yacht Club, Mitala Street Newport on Saturday, September 21st between 10 am and 3 pm.
