2013 Beneteau Oceanis 55, 385.000 EUR

This Beneteau Oceanis 55, Borealis, presents in great condition throughout and has never been chartered. From the moment you step aboard, her wide teak-laid decks, electric swim platform, and notably beamy cockpit set the tone for relaxed living at sea. The cockpit is well-arranged, with full-length cushioned benches, a generous table with integrated refrigeration, and twin sun pads flanking the companionway. Designed with effortless sailing in mind, she carries a modern, easy-to-manage sail plan, featuring a brand-new Nautosphere in-mast furling mainsail and a brand-new Nautosphere furling genoa, complemented by a storm sail and electric winches. Her specification is both extensive and reassuring: a 75hp Yanmar engine, bow thruster, Dock & Go joystick control with pod-drive system, folding propeller, generator, water maker, and a comprehensive navigation suite including AIS and radar. Additional highlights include a Besenzoni gangway, full cockpit enclosure, underwater lighting, life raft, and a new tender with a new electric outboard engine.

Below deck, the interior of this Beneteau Oceanis 55 is bathed in natural light from expansive hull windows and overhead hatches, enhancing the yacht’s calm atmosphere. She is fully equipped with a heating system, washer/dryer, dishwasher, a pop-up flat-screen television in the saloon, and leather upholstery. The forward owner’s cabin is generously proportioned, complete with a vanity/desk, private head, and a Plexiglass shower arrangement that enhances the feeling of openness around the central double berth. Aft, two well-appointed guest cabins provide comfortable double berths and share a second bathroom with electric toilet and separate shower. Borealis is certainly a yacht that is designed and equipped for comfortable cruising, whether you’re on or below deck.
