The 2023 Beneteau Antares 8 is a 23-foot composite pilothouse cruiser built for family and couples boating in coastal waters. Powered by a single 225 hp Mercury outboard with trim tabs, the boat combines a practical cabin design with smart outdoor entertaining space. A bow sun pad with boarding ladder and an additional day bed on deck make it equally suited to anchoring with company or cruising alone.
The cabin sleeps four and features sliding glass doors for access. Inside, you'll find an enclosed head with pressure hot and cold water, a galley with propane cooktop and refrigeration, a sun roof, and forward sunbathing mattress. The wheelhouse includes a sliding hatch and is equipped with a Garmin chartplotter and bow thruster for easy maneuvering. A custom camper back extends shelter over the aft deck.
The boat runs with 254 hours on the engine and comes outfitted with a Lithium Ion AC system for power management, AC and heat throughout, a cockpit shower, electric anchor windlass, and an integrated suite of safety and ground tackle. Interior trim features Infinity carpet. A white-painted Mercury cowl is fitted as an option.
