Broker Remarks

This Beneteau First 26 is a little pocket rocket, she offers good performance, combined with excellent accommodation for a boat of this size. Beneteau were way ahead in terms of interior layout for a boat of this size and age, the prospect of having a separate double aft cabin is superb. The good size aft heads is also a nice addition, leaving a nice open plan feel for the saloon and forepeak.
This Beneteau First 26 has had some excellent upgrades, she boasts a good instrument package, with the new Nexus NX2 wind, speed and depth. She also has a Navman chartplotter and Modern DSC, VHF radio.
The owner of this Beneteau First 26 has not stopped there, a new Ullmans Sails mainsail, along with a new stackpack canvas has also been added for the 2014 season. The standing rigging was also replaced during 2011/2012.
The hull has been stripped and epoxied professionally and is in superb condition, a survey was carried out inn 2014 for insurance purposes and available upon request.
If you are a beginner to sailing and looking for that perfect starter boat then you should look no further and certainly book in to view this boat today, she is currently on the hard standing for winter, so there is no better time to see her.
