When I visited this USA-built 2020 Beneteau Oceanis 46.1, Hull #47, I was glad to see how lightly sailed and very well-maintained it is. This Beneteau offers an exceptional value with extensive upgrades. Designed for comfortable cruising with ample space and premium features, she is ready to sail away.

Currently located in St Martin, FWI, it will sail next to Antigua and gradually arrive and spend summer in Grenada for hurricane season.

Manufacturer Provided Description

The Oceanis 46 boasts all the features of a large cruising yacht, with a rare balance between elegance, usable space and performance. Her stepped hull opens up an incredible amount of space inside and yet her seakeeping performance is still impressive. A large number of clever customizable fittings make her easy to sail and pleasantly comfortable.

The Oceanis 46.1 is based on a Finot-Conq plan, keeping the distinctive stepped hull of the 51.1. Apart from her performance at sea and the huge amount of space that set this boat apart, this architecture makes optimal use of the cockpit beam. An incredibly efficient deck plan makes her wonderfully safe and easy to use. The furling mast, self-tailing jib and all the halyards and sheets brought back to a single winch at each of the helm stations, make manoeuvring simple when short-handed sailing.
