1997 Beneteau First 42s7

This 1997 Beneteau First 42S7 is a 42-foot fiberglass sloop built for both racing and cruising. The boat features a 13.5-foot beam and is powered by a single Yanmar diesel engine rated at 47 horsepower, delivering a maximum speed of 8 knots.

The accommodations include two cabins with two double berths, along with two heads. The galley is equipped with a propane stove and oven, refrigeration and freezer, and Cruise-Air marine air conditioning and heating for year-round comfort.

The sailplan benefits from Harken battens integrated into a full batten main, roller furling from Profurl, and a canvas dodger for weather protection. The boat rides on a Martec folding propeller and is supported by three 8D batteries installed in 2023. The hull was repainted in 2023, and the boat has been regularly maintained throughout its life.
