2005 Beneteau 323 Sold Boat in Hingham, MA US

This Beneteau 323 has been designed to be sailed single handed with all lines leading aft to the cockpit where there are (4X) #30 Lewmar self-tailing winches. The Genoa is a roller furling and the main sail is a classic main with lazyjacks that allow the mainsail to be taken down and secured in the sailcover quickly and easily. A spinnaker halyard has been installed as well as the first and second reef lines which are all led aft to the cockpit for convenience when sailing short handed. The boat has been meticulously maintained and kept very clean by owner. It has always been shrink-wrapped for winter storage with sails and dodger removed. This sailboat is very well equipped and ready to sail with a hydraulic autopilot, custom dodger, 35lb Delta anchor, stove/oven, refrigeration, water heater, head, indoor and outdoor shower, and XM Radio/Stereo CD Player. Cockpit has plenty of room for 6 adults out for the day and the forward and aft berths have enough room for 2 couples taking long weekend sails out to the islands all summer long. Unique Patented swing wheel allows easy passage in the cockpit while loading the galley with provisions. Well thought out layout, come and see the difference for yourself. You can move in harmony with the wind and enjoy those hot summer days on the ocean. The engine is a reliable fuel efficient Yanmar that burns less than a gallon per hour cruising at 6 knts. The boat is equipped with everything you need to get out on the water right away. It has a fresh coat of Interlux Micron Extra bottom paint, new zinc anode, and all the required US Coastguard safety equipment on board. Great boat but owner must sell due to move away from the ocean.
