Cruiser-Racer

2006 Beneteau First 36.7

Price: $79,000

"Sandpiper"

Hamilton, Ontario

Beautiful Blue Awlgrip Hull Paint makes this proven racer/cruiser model stand apart from all the rest. Three owners have all been on the freshwater Great Lakes and she’s been indoor winter stored since new – It makes a difference! 

The First 36.7 is the perfect choice for racers who want optimum performance along with the value and comfort of a cruiser. She is equipped with the newer, upgraded pedestal set-up at the helm with a 54" double-spoked wheel with fresh leather wrap. A full suit of North Sails race sails will work well for PHRF or One Design racing.

This is a very clean boat with a fresh bottom paint job ready for spring launch. With the mast down for indoor storage, the boat could also be trucked to a new home port.
