Specifications

 Builders Hull No: FR-BEYF2161K708 Document No: 1213675 Built by: Beneteau Yachts Year Built/Model: 2007 / 2008 At: France Hailing Port: Las Vegas, NV Registry dimensions- (Designed Dimensions) Length: 50.0’ LOA- 51.34 ft Breadth: 17.0’ Beam- 16.08 ft Depth: 7.0’ Draft- 6.56 ft Displacement: Designed 30,000 lb Ballast: 8,708 lb iron keel bolted to hull bottom. Waters to be Navigated: Gulf of Florida to Southern California. Service: Pleasure. Last dry docking: 2021 At this time for inspection and maintenance.

Hull Planking: Hand molded fiberglass reinforced plastic hull. Balsa core reinforcements. Fastening: Resin and tabbing. Frames: Partial transverse bulkheads and grid pan liner. Floors: Intercostals. Main Deck: Similar to hull with moulded non skid. Watertight Bulkheads: None. Partial transverse bulkheads only. Rudder: Moulded spade. Longitudinal's: Grid pan liner. Hull Notes: Exterior gel coat finish. Inspected internally and externally where accessible.

Note: Added Harken Battcar Systems, let you raise, lower and reef the main instantly from the cockpit even when close reaching in a big breeze. They outperform in-mast or in-boom furling systems

Can Battcars help if a squall comes up with little warning?    Battcars are perfect for these conditions. If you need to get your sail down in a hurry, let the halyard go and it will drop immediately regardless of the load. We recommend keeping a wrap on the winch to slow the take-down and maintain control,
