2013 Beneteau 34' _{(10.36 m)} Oceanis 34

Built in 2013 and delivered in 2014, this Beneteau Oceanis 34 has been capably cruised and impeccably maintained by the same owner since new. A two cabin, one head layout offers the cruising couple an ideal layout for longer trips away from the dock, but preserves plenty of room for crew and guests. Finished in a rich cherry interior, and a stunning pearl-gray gelcoat exterior, she has the look and feel of a classic yacht, but with the convenience and ease of maintenance that has become the hallmark of contemporary sailboats.

On deck she has a roller furling genoa and in-mast furling mainsail, with all lines lead aft to the coachroof for simple sail handling. Large primary winches, accessible from the helm station, conveniently handle the genoa. The helm station offers plenty of visibility, and featured networked Simrad instrumentation with wind, depth, speed, plotter and integrated autopilot. This design has a hinged helm seat that opens to a sugar-scoop transom, perfect for swimming or accessing the water. A reboarding ladder and hot/cold cockpit shower await your return. Teak-slatted cockpit seats offer a warm touch, and a large opening lazarette keeps fenders, extra lines, and spares conveniently out of the way.

Moving below, a large bright salon welcomes you. Here the complement between soft creamy upholstery and cherry finishes, combined with the abundance of natural light creates an inviting space. Air conditioning with reverse-cycle heat keeps the space comfortable in all seasons. An L-shaped galley to port features a double stainless sing, two burner propane stove with oven, and cleverly concealed front-entry refrigerator/freezer. A queen sized aft cabin with hanging locker is accessed aft, and the head with shower is to starboard. Ahead is the navigation table with a properly sized work desk and access to the AC and DC panel. A microwave rounds out the inventory of cooking utensils. Forward, port and starboard settees face one another with a table in between. Two leaves increase the size of the dining area, and a set of brass weather instruments adorn the port hull side. Moving forward, a V-berth with hanging locker and storage cabinets provide a quiet, private space.

The reliable Yanmar 29 HP diesel has only 368 hours, and this boat is professionally washed every two weeks, and stored in a heated building each winter. Here is an opportunity to own one of Beneteau's best mid-size designs; one that continues to feature in the Oceanis lineup to this day. Call to get aboard soon!
