Beneteau Cyclades 43.3 Stylish, air conditioned 3-cabin coastal cruiser
Beneteau Cyclades 43.3 - Liveaboard Luxury Without the Price Tag This beautifully upgraded Beneteau Cyclades 43.3 is a standout example of a modernised cruising yacht that offers spacious liveaboard comfort, cruising capability and complete self-sufficiency at sea. Her fastidious owner has invested extensively to enhance every aspect of onboard living -- resulting in a yacht that feels far larger and more refined than her size and price suggest.
Configured as the desirable 3-cabin / 2-head Owner's Version, she boasts a spacious interior with new interior upholstery (2025) and a comfortable saloon designed for extended liveaboard life. The galley is fully electric, featuring induction cooking and an air fryer oven - no gas - powered by a robust 830W solar array, lithium battery bank, dual inverters, and a comprehensive Victron energy management system.
Her Webasto reverse-cycle air conditioning, Raymarine i70 multifunction displays (2025), Vetus variable thrust bow thruster (2024), and custom stainless davits with BBQ and wind generator (2024) make cruising effortless and enjoyable.
She's designed for quiet independence at anchor, with a water maker, laundry system, Starlink-ready WiFi, and new entertainment upgrades including twin SMART TVs.
Mechanically, she has been just as well cared for: feathering autoprop, new shaft, new seals and bearings (2022), hot water system (2024), and a well-maintained engine ensure confidence for coastal or offshore passages alike.

Remarks
Antifouled with propspeed, hull polish and new anodes - Sep 2025.
Soanar electronic antifouling system.
Bow Thurster: Variable thrust (not just on or off) so you can use graduated amounts of thrust when docking. Plus there is a set button on the joystick so you can set your desired thrust, take your hand off and it stays locked on to that set thrust - extremely useful when single handed docking.
Hatch replacements x4 made 2022: Forward cabin and main saloon (stbd side).
Background History: 3-owner vessel. Orginally known as 'Oasis'.
Purchased May 2022 (third owners). Original owners kept her in Mackay having only chartered a few times during first year of ownership - she was purchased in approx 2016 and kept in Raby Bay. Owners LOVE the huge social cockpit, easily managed systems amongst a couple, and the sintallation of the bow thruster was a marriage saver! The relatively high freeboard is a safety feature they appreciate - plus the full solid hand rail surrounding the cockpit always made us feel nice and secure.
*Owner tends to have the engine running if using the washing machine (although not required) as it allows him to run the water maker and it warms the water for a hot shower.
