2023 Beneteau First 3611m

SAILING WORLD'S 2023 BOAT OF THE YEAR!!

Introducing the 2023 Beneteau First 36--the ultimate blend of speed and comfort! Designed for double-digit speeds, this boat promises pure pleasure and ease of handling. With twin rudders and dual helm stations, you have optimum visibility and control, and a high sail area to displacement ratio gives you the power to perform in any type of sailing--club racing, family cruising, or shorthanded adventuring. 

The cockpit is modular so as to configure a racing or cruising layout. Remove the table and make room for crew, or install it and invite your friends over for dinner. Either way, you'll have great all-around visibility and safety with high coamings and triple aft lifelines. A fold-down transom bathing platform improves water access when it's time to relax, but doesn't impede boat performance.

The hull design maximizes interior volume, affording the largest living space in its class--similar to what would be found on a previous generation 40-footer! Down below you'll find the comfort you expect in a cruiser, with an intelligent layout and plenty of room. The three cabin layout provides plenty of berthing, but can also accommodate sails and gear. The aft cabins are equipped with lee cloths to keep you safe and secure in a rolling seaway.  Alpi teak woodwork presents a light, clean atmosphere, and two opening ports in each cabin allow plenty of airflow. Each cabin has its own indirect LED lights and spotlights. 

The new First 36: Your Swiss Army knife on the water!
