Beneteau First 47.7


Lazuli is a 4 cabin 2002 Beneteau First 47.7 set up for liveaboard cruising.

This Bruce Farr designed First 47.7 has the performance rig with a tall 3 spreader mast, with the shallower 2.3m keel that makes for effortless and enjoyable sailing.

Lazuli will sail all day at over 7 knots; we've done multiple passages averaging 8+.

All lines lead back to the cocktpit, which combined with the electric port side cabin top winch and large headsail winches makes it easy to handle as a couple or small family.

She has been our home since December 2024, and has kept us safe and comfortable throughout our sails from Brisbane down to Sydney, up to Lizard Island, and back down to Airlie Beach.

She is ready for new owners to take her on the next adventure.

Recent works include:
* New dodger and infill (Sept 2025)
* New fridge and freezer compressors (May 2025)
* New LED cabin lights (May 2025)
* Full sandblast, paint and antifoul (March 2025)
* 3 x AGM 230ah house batteries (Oct 2024)
* Removed holding tank and installed Air Head composting toilet in forward head (June 2024)
* New forestay, main halyard / genoa halyard / topping lift / masthead sheaves (May 2024)
