2007 Beneteau Antares 7

Marketing Description 'Phily' is a rare one owner boat from new. It just seems like yesterday that she was handed over. She is what I consider to be a good example of what was a very popular model in the Beneteau Antares stable. Not to be confused with the more recent Antares 7 that comes with outboard power, this is the inboard diesel version with a very well maintained Nanni T4-155hp power unit installed. Handy extras include Raymarine Element 7 - NEW 2025, electric windlass, cockpit Vis a Vis seating with removable seat cushions and a double berth conversion in the saloon. Large wheelhouse with helm and co-pilot seating. Underwater areas recoated October 2025 with 2 season antifouling.  Separate heads compartment with sea toilet. Galley area with fridge. Full service history.
Mechanical Vessel is powered by an economical but super reliable Nanni T4:155, 155 hp inboard diesel. She has been in the same ownership from new and maintained her as you would expect. Only gap is the Covid period when boat owners were barred from the marina. Significant jobs have been completed such as timing belt in 2018 and exhaust mixer elbow in June 2026. Those familiar with these engines will know that the engine hour meters can be a bit intermittant and thiis is ithe case with 'Phily' where the screen is blank. What is important however is that the engine has been well maintained and she certainly has. Most recent service was in October 2025 following antifouling so that she could sit with fresh oil through the Winter. It starts first time every time and will continue to provide many years of reliable service to come. ZF reduction gearbox driving stainless steel shaft and 4-bladed propeller. 
Electrical Bank of 2x12V batteries providing engine start and domestic power. The batteries are recharged via the engine alternator or the onboard Dolphin Smart Charger/shore power unit. Shore power cable along with inlet and RCD. Cabin sockets.
