2016 Bente 24

The Bente 24 is a 2016 fiberglass sailing yacht designed for both day sailing and extended cruising. At nearly 25 feet with a 9-foot beam, it balances manageable size with genuine comfort. The boat is powered by a Torqeedo 4.0 FP Pod electric engine with a folding propeller, paired with two 3500Wh lithium battery banks upgraded in 2020. Two fast chargers support quick turnarounds between outings.

Below deck, the layout includes one cabin and one head. The galley features a slide-out kitchen unit and sink, while upholstered interior and exterior surfaces create a refined finish. A 1.80-meter performance keel supports the sail plan, which comprises standard Dacron sails in grey and Doyle PX Black sails, all managed by a Furlex 50S roller furling jib. The boat carries lazy bags with lazy jacks and a Gennaker package in grey and orange with a slide-out carbon bowsprit for added performance options.

Navigation and sail control are supported by Garmin instruments with two displays. The rig includes a Ronstan traveller for the mooring jib. Convenience features include a swim ladder for water access. The combination of electric propulsion, performance rigging, and compact accommodations makes this boat well-suited to sailors seeking efficiency and control.
