Beneteau Oceanis 473 - fast, fun, simple sailing.

Fast, Fun, Simple Sailing. This spacious Beneteau Oceanis 473 appeals to cruisers who are looking for good looks, sailing performance and room to relax and live comfortably aboard. Join us in this tour of 'Brainwave'. Sailing the 473 is very easy with dual wheel steering, excellent visibility and a fuss free cockpit with all lines leading aft. The mid boom sheeting system means the traveller is in front of the dodger and all the hard work is avoided by using a powered winch. This is powered by a Volvo 55hp diesel inboard and accompanied by a side power bow thruster. Both mainsail and genoa were upgraded to high performance dacron sails in 2016 and a new feathering prop and shaft in 2021. Stepping below, one is immediately struck by the volume. A major attraction of the Oceanis 473 is the large owner's cabin with queen island bed and separate ensuite. Both the saloon and cockpit have lots of room to sit around the table and the L-shaped galley is functional and spacious. There is an abundance of storage under the cockpit and in two aft lazarette lockers. If you're looking for a good looking, long distance cruising yacht with great sailing performance, an abundance of creature comforts, heaps of storage and an extra large galley, the 473 is the yacht for you. She is equipped with Raymarine autopilot, colour chart plotter and a full suite of wind, speed and depth instrument panels at each helm. This 2-cabin version was filmed in beautiful Pittwater, Sydney, Australia in October 2022 and is currently for sale with EziYacht.
