2026 Beneteau First 44

The Beneteau First 44 is a 48-foot fiberglass sailing yacht that bridges the gap between smaller and larger models in the First line. The boat balances performance with refinement, combining responsive handling with thoughtful design across its modest beam of 13 feet.

Below deck, the yacht accommodates three cabins and two heads, offering comfortable berthing and facilities for cruising or extended passages. The layout prioritizes both livability and efficient use of space.

Propulsion comes from a Yanmar engine, providing reliable auxiliary power when needed. The First 44 is available in both standard and performance configurations, allowing buyers to choose the setup that suits their sailing priorities.
