This exceptionally well-presented Beneteau Oceanis 473 combines outstanding volume, offshore capability, and easy short-handed sailing, making her ideal for coastal cruising, extended passage making, or comfortable liveaboard use.
An award-winning Groupe Finot design and Cruising World's Best Production Cruiser 2003/2004, she remains one of the most highly regarded yachts in her class for her balance of performance, safety, and comfort.
The dual-wheel helm is supported by autopilot, with all lines led back to the cockpit including furling, reefing, halyards, and anchor control, allowing safe and highly efficient short-handed sailing. Wide side decks, strong handrails, and a practical deck layout further enhance safe movement underway, while twin helm stations provide excellent visibility and direct access to the open transom, creating a seamless connection between cockpit and water.
Below deck, she offers genuine liveaboard comfort with a warm cherrywood interior, excellent natural light from large hatches and hull windows, and strong ventilation throughout. A dedicated navigation station provides a proper command centre for passage planning and onboard systems, while generous storage, excellent tankage, and a well-appointed galley support extended cruising with ease.
She is well set up for self-sufficient cruising, featuring a Victron solar charging system, 3000-watt inverter, and a four-battery bank. A reliable 100hp Yanmar shaft-drive diesel with feathering propeller delivers consistent seven-knot cruising when conditions drop. At anchor, the full beam bimini with breezeway enclosure provides adjustable protection and all-weather comfort, extending the usability of the cockpit in varied conditions.
At the stern, the transom opens to create a natural extension of the cockpit into the swim platform, delivering an excellent indoor-outdoor living space ideal for entertaining or relaxed cruising.
