Description:

The Beneteau Oceanis 40.1 is a little big boat. She’s a forty-footer that feels like forty-five but handles more like a compact cruiser which is perfect for a couple, a single-hander or a small family. She packs in a whole complement of cruising necessities and does it all on a well designed hull . In other words, she’s all the boat you need for all the fun you plan to have. As family cruisers go, the Beneteau Oceanis 40.1 has a lot to offer. A comfortable and good-sized cockpit, a vast and spacious saloon, and a large practical galley for use in port. She has a nice reassuring feel on the water and is impeccably behaved; all that can expect from Beneteau. Space is a great thing for family cruisers and charter, and the two areas where the 40.1 shows off her length-defying ability are the social areas of the boat: the cockpit and the saloon.
