Beneteau 46: BoatTEST Review

Reviewed by Jeff Hammond

Boat Test Review on BoatTest.com

Overview

The Beneteau Gran Turismo 46 represents the second generation of the Gran Turismo lineup, embodying the Beneteau Group's commitment to continuous improvement. This 46-foot yacht is designed with a strong focus on entertainment, usability, and seamless integration between interior and exterior living spaces. It is also notable as the first model built with IPS propulsion on a stepped hull, enhancing performance and handling.

Exterior Design and Deck Features

At the stern, the Gran Turismo 46 features a teak and holly swim platform equipped with hydraulic operation to lower the platform for tender launching. The platform includes cradles for securing the tender and a concealed reboarding ladder with a grab handle to port. Forward of the platform, the cockpit is well-appointed with a sink offering hot and cold running water, an electric grill, and ample storage beneath a cleverly hinged hatch that avoids contact with the deck when opened. A freshwater shower is conveniently located to port. The cockpit seating area includes two forward-facing seats with adjustable controls on both sides, enhanced comfort through multi-density foam padding, and a stylish two-tone vinyl with diamond-stitched patterns. Access to the cockpit is provided by stairs on both port and starboard sides, which also lead to the side decks. The side decks themselves measure 14 inches wide with 19-inch high rails and an additional safety channel along the cabin top, facilitating safe passage to the bow. The bow features dual double-wide sunpads that individually flip up into chaise lounge positions, complete with integrated drink holders.

Interior Living Spaces

The salon is designed to create a seamless transition between indoor and outdoor spaces. Beveled double doors open fully to the cockpit, allowing the small settees to swing out and expand the living area. A large, expandable table accommodates dining for several guests, and closing the doors provides additional spaciousness inside. The interior upholstery continues the two-tone, diamond-stitched theme, complemented by contrast-colored panels housing Bose stereo speakers and recessed LED lighting. The salon is pre-wired for a TV with a reinforced bulkhead for mounting. A massive sunroof and optional drop-down side windows further enhance the connection with the outdoors. Forward on the port side, a cockpit refrigerator is integrated for convenience.

Galley and Lower Salon

Accessed via a large overhead hatch and side door, the lower deck houses a full-featured galley positioned down below to maximize main deck seating and gathering space. The galley includes an upright refrigerator-freezer, a two-burner stove, a double-basin stainless steel sink with covers, and ample storage with garage-door-style compartments over the microwave area. Natural light floods the space through an overhead skylight and opening port lights on both sides. The galley finishes include walnut-finished Alpi wood, lacquered cabinet doors, Corian countertops, and Alpi laminate decking extending beneath removable carpeting. Adjacent to the galley, the lower salon features U-shaped seating around a solid wood pedestal table, which can be optionally lowered to convert into an additional berth. Storage is provided above and beside the opening port light, and a 28-inch TV is positioned opposite the seating.

Heads and Accommodations

The lower deck includes a well-appointed head with a separate walk-in shower featuring a removable rain shower wand, a vessel sink, a mirror, and both natural and artificial ventilation. The decking here is teak and holly. The forward stateroom offers 6 feet 5 inches of headroom, hull-side windows, and an overhead hatch that provide abundant natural light. The island berth is accessible from both sides and includes storage, with the berth capable of separating to accommodate non-couple guests. The master stateroom, located aft beneath the cockpit, features a queen-size island berth with access on both sides, extensive storage, and seating areas in front of hull-side windows. The master includes climate control, stereo connectivity, and a surround sound system. Its en-suite head offers a walk-in shower, ample cabinetry, a wide mirror, a vessel sink atop walnut Alpi wood, and teak and holly decking, with both natural and artificial ventilation. Throughout the accommodations, attention to detail is evident in features such as light switches positioned just inside doors, rubber-trimmed door jams, solid-core doors with decorative stainless steel handles, and the option to add a bulkhead to create a third stateroom.

Conclusion

The Beneteau Gran Turismo 46 is a thoughtfully designed yacht that balances luxurious accommodations with practical entertainment and usability features. Its innovative use of space, seamless indoor-outdoor integration, and attention to detail in both fit and finish underscore its appeal. The introduction of IPS propulsion on a stepped hull marks a significant advancement in performance for this model. Overall, the GT46 offers a compelling package for those seeking a versatile and refined cruising yacht.
