Beneteau First 30

Sailing Experience

Few sensations compare to the moment when a sailboat begins to plane, an exhilarating "lift-off" as the boat breaks free from the chains of displacement speed. Until now, this experience required advanced sailing skills. However, with the all-new BENETEAU First 30, the joy of planing becomes effortless and accessible to all, whether you’re an experienced racer or a newcomer to sailing.

The deck and generously sized cockpit layout were designed with two goals: minimizing clutter to create a spacious and comfortable chill-out area while ensuring outstanding sailing ergonomics. Two cockpit layouts are available: one for day sailors and cruisers and another for racers. In the cruising layout, the mainsail bridle and German sheet system enable the cockpit floor to be completely clean while allowing easy control of the mainsail through generously sized winches.

The racing layout adds a mainsail traveler with a direct and fine-tuning mainsheet system, creating a familiar workspace for racing sailors.  

 

Onboard

As one would expect from a true BENETEAU, First 30’s distinctive, puristic, yet cozy interior creates spacious accommodation for four sailors in two cabins. 

Her most prominent features include a generously sized front cabin and saloon berths comparable to her larger sister, the First 36. The same goes for the well-sized galley, which includes a gimbaled stove, optional fridge, and 1.85 m (6.0 ft) standing height.

The interior also features a proper marine head and numerous intelligent and innovative solutions, such as foldable magnetic doors, removable textile lockers, and a foldable galley extension.

In short, the First 30 is a true planing cruiser that offers everything needed to serve as a “home away from home” for families or couples.

A Connected Boat

The mobile application, Seanapps, and its onboard unit lets you view the status of the boat's various systems (battery charge, fuel or water tank levels, maintenance scheduling) via your smartphone, as well as planning your route or reviewing your sailing status using your mobile phone.
