2006 Beneteau OCEANIS 473, EUR 145,000

BENETEAU OCEANIS 473 CLIPPER - BLUEWATER CRUISING WITH FULL AUTONOMY

Built by Bénéteau in 2006, the Oceanis 473 Clipper delivers exactly what made the yard's reputation: a spacious, comfortable cruising yacht that remains easy to handle shorthanded and genuinely capable offshore. This pre-owned example, French flagged (FRANCE), has been fitted out for long-distance sailing, with a substantial upgrade of her inventory over recent years. Price: 145000 € VAT paid.

Construction and seakeeping

At 14.30 m overall with a 4.33 m beam and 11,500 kg displacement, the Oceanis 473 has the volume and stability of a true voyaging yacht. Polyester hull and deck, 19.20 m air draft and CE category A certification make her intentions clear. The standing rigging was replaced in 2022, and the sail wardrobe comprises an in-mast mainsail, a furling genoa from 2015, a furling staysail and running backstays from 2023, plus an asymmetric spinnaker with snuffer from 2023.

Engine and accommodation

Power comes from a Yanmar 4JH13HTE diesel on shaft drive with 2,800 hours, giving 7 knots cruising, 11 knots maximum and 2 l/h consumption. Tankage suits the programme: 237 litres of fuel and 600 litres of water. Below, 3 cabins and 8 berths accommodate up to 10 people, with a 5 kW Eberspächer heater and washing machine for long-passage comfort.
