Broker's Comments

This is a fabulous example of the popular Beneteau First.

She has been extensively refurbished by her current owner and is a real credit to him. She presents as a much younger boat.

Her running and standing rigging has all been replaced over the last few years and a host of other modifications - LED lighting, diesel heating, new nav equipment and re-upholstered throughout.

She was out of the water last year for antifouling and new anodes.

Her engine looks immaculate and had a cylinder head refurb in 2020.

All in all, this is a beautiful boat and I can highly recommend taking a look.
