BENETEAU FIRST 345
A great reputation for their fast sailing performance, aided by the deep fin keel, this Beneteau First 345 makes a nice family cruiser. This example is well looked after being professionally maintained. She benefits from recent upgrades and additions by her current owner and has always been stored ashore for six months every year.
Sleek lines give a purposeful look to this cruiser / racer and she has a roomy aft cockpit with tiller steering. On descending the companionway steps (with the Volvo Penta engine underneath) you enter the saloon. There is a good sized chart table to starboard and the galley is to port. Forward of this, the saloon has a straight settee to starboard and ‘L’ shaped seating around the table to port. Forward of the saloon is a heads / shower compartment and forward of this is the double forepeak cabin. There are two further double cabins aft.
The headlinings have been replaced throughout and she benefits from a single line reefing mainsail with lines led aft, giving good performance with the convenience of being quickly stowed in her stack-pack bag.
