Broker's Comments
The Beneteau First 38 is considered to be a fast cruiser/racer or according to most owners racer/cruiser! She is a good family boat offering the desired privacy with the forward en-suite cabin for the parents or hiding the kids whilst you entertain.
When we first walked on board the boat we were taken aback by the amount of space on board. If the vessel were to be gifted a professional valet this would be a gleaming fine example of this class of boat.
The Beneteau's have been sailed across channels and oceans with loudly sung praise proving they are not only for the local minded sailor but provide the bluewater cruising for the more adventurous.
The boat is currently still in commission and will remain so until after christmas so can be seen in her natural environment.
