2026 Beneteau First 53

The Beneteau First 53 is a 53-foot fiberglass sailing yacht built on four decades of design refinement within Beneteau's First range. Combining high-performance sailing characteristics with cruising capability, this model carries forward the legacy of a lineage that began in 1977.

The yacht accommodates three cabins and features six heads, providing comfortable spaces for extended cruising. The beam of 16 feet offers stability and interior volume while maintaining the responsive handling expected from the First series.

Power comes from a Yanmar engine, providing auxiliary propulsion for maneuvering in calm conditions. The yacht's design prioritizes sailing efficiency and seaworthiness, making it suitable for both coastal cruising and blue-water passages.
