2005 Beneteau 57

This 2005 Beneteau 57 sloop is a four-stateroom, four-head cruising yacht built with a fiberglass hull and powered by a single 165 hp Yanmar diesel engine. The design has proven capable for extended offshore passages, including Atlantic crossings. The interior features varnished woodwork throughout, creating a warm and traditional aesthetic suited to both serious cruising and entertaining.

The accommodation layout provides four separate cabins with four full heads, offering comfortable space for extended voyages or hosting guests. The yacht is outfitted with modern electronics including dual Raymarine chart plotters, autopilot, and radar systems. Climate control comes via an air conditioning and heat pump system installed in 2023. Additional conveniences include a washing machine, hot water heater, and an illuminated LED wine bar in the salon.

Recent maintenance and upgrades reflect thorough preparation for continued service. The running rigging and standing rigging were replaced in 2018, with the genoa refreshed in 2022. Hull maintenance included zincs and impellers replaced in 2026, along with new CRC ablative paint. A new bimini top was added in 2024, and battery systems were upgraded to eight AGM units. Navigation equipment has been progressively updated, with the windshield replaced with a new Beneteau unit in 2022.

The yacht carries an array of cruising equipment: a 12-foot Highfield tender with 40 hp Suzuki, tender davits rated for 300 kg, three fuel tanks with automatic transfer valves, and 250 feet of anchor chain. Onboard amenities include satellite communication via Starlink and Iridium GO, a 2025 Kohler generator, and scuba diving equipment with ten tanks and buoyancy compensators.
