The Beneteau First 265 is a compact and versatile sailboat, designed by Groupe Finot and built between 1990 and 1997 (520 units). The boat combines comfort, performance, and a thoughtful interior, with a strong fiberglass hull and a robust finish for durability and ease of use.
The interior is cleverly designed and offers a spacious cabin with a seating area and folding table, a compact galley with cooking facilities and sink, and a well-equipped navigation corner. There are sleeping places for up to four people, divided between a rear cabin and a forepeak. The use of light wood tones and an efficient layout makes the interior pleasant and practical, ideal for short trips and weekend getaways.
In terms of sailing characteristics, the First 265 offers good balance and stability, even at higher speeds and in challenging weather conditions. The easy-to-handle rigging ensures a smooth sailing experience, even with a small crew. With a PHRF rating of 180, the boat is among the faster boats in its class.
"Joachim" is from the second owner who is selling because he is switching to a motorboat. The boat is in good condition and is immediately available.
