2024 Beneteau Antares 8 Fishing

The 2024 Beneteau Antares 8 Fishing is a 26-foot fiberglass sports cruiser built for fishing and coastal cruising. Powered by a single Mercury 250 XL gasoline engine, it combines a sleek, sporty design with practical fishing features. The modular cockpit is optimized for movement and functionality, with a dedicated fishing station replacing the traditional aft bench, complete with professional-grade rod holders. A water circulation live bait well and three under-deck storage compartments—one designed for a fish box—support serious fishing operations. A starboard side access gate simplifies both mooring maneuvers and the process of bringing larger catches aboard.

The interior accommodates up to five overnight guests across two double berths: one in the cabin and one in the wheelhouse, with an additional berth available in the space under the saloon. Onboard comfort includes a kitchenette fitted with a refrigerator and a choice of gas or electric cooktop. Air conditioning is available as an option to enhance comfort during cruising.
