Description




Here at Jaykay Marine Sales, we are delighted to offer for sale this Beneteau First 32 sailing yacht. Having been owned by the same family since 1997, they are very reluctant to sell her. But due to upgrading to a larger vessel, they are having to part ways with her. With extensive sail and rigging inventory, she is more than capable of cruising and racing, having been cruised here in the Solent and even as far as France and the Scilly Isles, as well as some local races including some appearances at Cowes Week. She is easily handled under sail, equipped with mainsail slab reefing and a Furlex headsail reefing system. Having had extensive works done on her in the current owner’s tenure, including hull re-epoxied in 2015, new electronics in 2023, new skin fittings in 2024 plus much more.
