1993 Beneteau First 310

The Beneteau First 310 is a 31-foot cruising sailboat built in 1993, designed by Jean Berret and Philippe Starck. Known for balanced performance and responsive handling, this model combines efficient sailing characteristics with manageable proportions. The fractional rig and sail plan work equally well upwind and downwind, while the cockpit layout supports single-handed or short-handed operation with lines led aft for convenient sail handling.

Below deck, the interior offers two private cabins—one forward and one aft—alongside a functional galley, comfortable saloon with convertible seating, and fully enclosed head. Headroom is generous, and the layout makes efficient use of interior space. Storage is ample throughout. An 11-foot beam provides good stability and livable volume for its size.

The boat is powered by a single 15-horsepower diesel engine and built from fiberglass. The design and construction reflect Beneteau's reputation for durability, and the boat's thoughtful detailing has allowed it to age well.
