The 2023 Beneteau Oceanis 38.1 represents a modern approach to cruising sailboat design. A fiberglass hull with a chined profile and twin rudders gives the boat distinctive sailing characteristics, while the fractional rig, in-mast furling main, self-tacking jib, and Code-0 all work together to make single-handed sailing manageable. Power comes from a 40-horsepower Yanmar diesel. The spacious cockpit features teak seats, floor, and swim platform, with a custom polycarbonate dodger, bimini, and full enclosure for weather protection. A teak table sits centerline.
Below deck, the contemporary interior by Nauta uses white oak joinery and is organized as a two-cabin, one-head layout with a separate shower room. Climate control includes air conditioning and heat across two zones. The boat is equipped for serious cruising: a B&G Zeus 3 multifunction display serves as the centerpiece of an integrated electronics package that includes radar, hydraulic below-deck autopilot, AIS transceiver, VHF radio, and instruments for depth, speed, and wind. Navigation and boat handling are supported by a Quick bow thruster and electric anchor windlass with cockpit remote and chain counter.
Sail handling and docking are optimized for solo operation. A Harken two-speed electric winch assists with lines, while the Neil Pryde Code-0 is controlled by a Selden furler. An asymmetric spinnaker option includes a halyard winch on the starboard side and double bow roller with bobstay. The shoal draft keel draws just 5 feet 5 inches. A fresh water boat, this Oceanis 38.1 has been lightly used and is equipped with a Jabsco quiet flush electric toilet, custom cockpit cushions, and a custom winter cover.
