<?xml version="1.0" encoding="iso-8859-1"?><span><p></p><h5></h5><p>Design and Build</p>
<p>The Beneteau Oceanis Clipper 423 is a well-proportioned cruising yacht that has proven itself as a reliable and comfortable option for both coastal sailing and longer trips. It sits in that sweet spot where you get proper space on board without stepping into something overly complex or demanding to handle.</p>
<p>She was designed with real cruising in mind. The emphasis is on usability, sensible systems, and a layout that works just as well for a weekend away as it does for extended time aboard.</p>
<p>Hull and Construction</p>
<p>Built in GRP with a fin keel and spade rudder, the hull offers a steady and predictable feel both under sail and at low speeds.</p>
<p>GRP hull and deck<br>
Fin keel<br>
Spade rudder<br>
Wheel steering</p>
<p>She feels balanced and forgiving, which is exactly what most owners are looking for in this size range.</p>
<p>Rig and Sailing Configuration</p>
<p>The sloop rig is straightforward and set up to be managed without fuss. Most of the sail handling can be done from the cockpit which makes a noticeable difference when sailing short-handed.</p>
<p>Sloop rig<br>
Furling headsail<br>
Mainsail with reefing system<br>
Lines led aft</p>
<p>It is a setup that encourages you to go sailing rather than overthink it.</p>
<p>Engine and Propulsion</p>
<p>Powered by an inboard diesel engine on a shaft drive, Quickthorn offers reliable and predictable handling when manoeuvring.</p>
<p>Inboard diesel engine<br>
Shaft drive<br>
Simple controls at the helm</p>
<p>Nothing complicated here, just a dependable setup that does what you need it to.</p>
<p>Accommodation and Layout</p>
<p>This is where the Oceanis 423 really comes into its own. There is a noticeable step up in space compared to smaller yachts, and it is laid out in a way that feels practical rather than crowded.</p>
<p>Three-cabin layout<br>
Forward owner’s cabin with double berth<br>
Two aft double cabins<br>
Large saloon with dining area<br>
Galley positioned for safe use at sea<br>
Separate heads and shower</p>
<p>There is plenty of light and ventilation throughout, which makes the whole space feel open and comfortable.</p>
<p>Condition and Ownership</p>
<p>Quickthorn is in excellent condition, having been well cared for by just two owners since new. She is a good example of the marque and is well worth viewing.</p>
