Designed by Bruce Farr, the Beneteau First 47.7 builds on the phenomenal success of earlier Beneteau sailing craft.
This true performance cruiser is strongly built and carefully engineered to deliver excellent sailing performance while retaining the essence of a comfortable easily handed cruising yacht.
Features include: a very spacious 3 cabin, twin head layout. The cockpit has fore and aft seating with single wheel steering. A well-appointed galley and saloon with ample room for entertaining plus a large dining table to starboard and settees located port and starboard. Forward of the saloon is the spacious master cabin. Plenty of well thought out storage onboard.
There are three sets of swept back spreaders, a nine-tenths fractional rig. Under sail, it is well balanced, responsive and the ability of being able to be sailed hard or 2 handed cruising.
This is an impressive boat for the money.
