2004 BENETEAU OCEANIS 473 PERFORMANCE

The 2004 Beneteau Oceanis 473 Performance represents the pinnacle of French production yacht engineering, penned by the acclaimed naval architect JM Finot - a designer synonymous with speed, seakeeping and offshore capability. Stretching 14.15 metres with a generous beam of 4.31m and a performance-oriented draft of 2.10m, this monohull delivers the perfect balance of sailing performance and liveaboard comfort. Three well-appointed cabins make her ideal for extended bluewater cruising, accommodating couples or small crews in genuine comfort across long ocean passages. Currently berthed at Vuda Marina, Fiji - one of the South Pacific's premier cruising hubs - this yacht is already perfectly positioned for Pacific Island adventures, offering immediate access to some of the world's most spectacular sailing grounds. The Oceanis 473 Performance variant was specifically engineered for those who demand more from their cruising yacht: crisper upwind angles, a more responsive helm, and the confidence to tackle open ocean passages in style. Currently under contract, this is a testament to her desirability. Priced at EUR $128,000, she represents outstanding value in the bluewater cruising market. Serious enquiries welcome.
