Built by Beneteau USA in Marion, South Carolina.

The Beneteau 311 and the Oceanis 311 are essentially the same boat—the difference is purely a matter of marketing. From the 1990s until about 2011, Beneteau USA chose to market these models without using the "Oceanis" designation. Despite this marketing decision, the hull plaques on all of these boats still carried the "Oceanis" model name.
