2007 Beneteau 343

The 2007 Beneteau 343 is a 34-foot fiberglass cruising sailboat designed by BerretRacoupeau. With an 11-foot beam, she offers a well-balanced platform combining responsive handling with stability suited to Pacific Northwest cruising. The boat carries a Yanmar auxiliary engine for motoring when conditions demand it.

The interior includes one cabin, providing comfortable accommodation for cruising and extended time away from port. The layout is arranged for practical living aboard, with thoughtful use of the available space typical of Beneteau's cruiser designs.

The 343 presents an accessible entry point into blue-water sailing, blending the seaworthiness expected of a modern cruising design with the comfort and ease of handling that appeals to both seasoned sailors and those stepping up to a larger boat.
