34' Beneteau 343 '05 "Tangent"

TANGENT has been lightly used and well maintained. The Beneteau 343 is well-designed and is comfortable both on deck and below. She looks and feels like a larger vessel. She sails well in a variety of conditions and suits the needs of a single-hander, a sailing couple or a small family.

Recent upgraded electronics and bottom paint makes her ideally suited for a new owner this summer.
