1990 Beneteau Oceanis 430

This 1990 Beneteau Oceanis 430 is a 43-foot fiberglass sloop designed for comfortable cruising and extended time at sea. The class earned its reputation among cruisers for balancing sailing capability with livable accommodations. A 51-horsepower Perkins diesel engine provides reliable auxiliary power.

The interior layout includes three cabins and two heads, arranged to maximize usable space throughout the yacht. The main salon is bright and open, featuring warm wood joinery, ample seating, and natural light. The galley is well-equipped for onboard living, while forward and aft cabin berths provide comfortable sleeping quarters for family and guests.

On deck, the wide beam of 13.83 feet creates a spacious cockpit with straightforward access to sail controls, making the yacht manageable to sail short-handed. The solid fiberglass hull and fin keel design are characteristic of the Oceanis 430 and deliver a steady, predictable motion underway. The combination of functional deck layout and stable hull form has long made this model a practical choice for both weekend cruising and longer passages.
