Broker's Comments

This Beneteau First 30 has had the same active owner for 14 years. She is largely original, save for replacement upholstery and Volvo 18hp engine (1985) and the recent installation of an electric windlass.

The interior is very clean and sound for a boat of this age, but she comes from a time when boats were made to last!

She feels reassuringly solid and would be ideal for somebody downsizing or a beginner looking for something capable of cross Channel and coastal passages, with plenty of room for crew.

The galley is basic, though the owner is including a microwave, and a 12v/240v combined fridge/food warmer.

There is also a serviceable outboard included.

This Beneteau First 30 has been personally photographed and viewed by Dan King of Boatshed Brighton. Click here for contact details.
