Beneteau Antares 12 Coupe: BoatTEST Review
Overview
The Beneteau Terré 12 Coop is an evolution of the popular Terré 11, designed to offer increased livability for long-term cruisers and those undertaking extensive voyages such as the America's Great Loop. This 42-foot vessel emphasizes spaciousness and comfort, addressing customer feedback for more room while maintaining the practical features that make it suitable for extended cruising.
Interior Living Spaces
The interior of the Terré 12 Coop is thoughtfully designed to maximize natural light and space. A three-section sliding door seamlessly connects the salon to the cockpit, enhancing the indoor-outdoor living experience. The cockpit features a versatile V-shaped seating arrangement with a backrest that can fold forward, allowing guests to either engage in conversation or gather around the high-low table. This table can be lowered and fitted with an infill cushion to create an almost full-size bed. Storage is abundant, including compartments for glassware and serving plates, as well as overhead storage that does not obstruct views. The galley is well-equipped with a cooktop featuring fiddles to secure pots in rough seas, a sink with an infill to extend counter space, a convection oven, dual drawers that can serve as fridge or freezer, and dedicated storage for glassware and bottles. Additional conveniences include a pullout trash bin, easy access to air conditioning controls, onboard music systems, an electrical panel, and a pop-up TV that can be concealed to preserve the panoramic views. An electrically opening sunroof adds to the ambient light and ventilation, while shades and bug screens provide comfort as needed.
Bridge and Helm
The helm station is designed for ease of single-handed operation, with a comfortable captain's chair featuring a flip-down bolster and forward movement capability. The helm is positioned midships, providing excellent sight lines when standing or seated, although taller individuals might find visibility slightly limited when seated. Controls are ergonomically arranged, including joystick maneuvering, throttle controls, toggle switches, and a phone charger within easy reach. The helm is equipped with a Garmin display, with provisions for adding a second unit, and a centrally located compass. The overall layout promotes intuitive handling and situational awareness.
Private Accommodations
The Terré 12 Coop offers flexible sleeping arrangements across its two guest cabins and a forward master stateroom, complemented by two heads. The portside guest cabin can be configured as two separate berths or converted into a single large berth using a filler cushion. This cabin includes a hanging locker, additional storage, and en suite access to a day head with a full walk-in shower and approximately six feet of headroom. The starboard guest cabin features a single berth with built-in wall storage and a hanging locker. The forward master stateroom boasts an island berth flanked by full-length side windows with opening portlights, an overhead hatch for ventilation, ample storage including hanging lockers, and a private en suite head. The master head offers six feet three inches of headroom, a separate walk-in shower, a sink, and generous storage, providing a comfortable and functional space.
Conclusion
The Beneteau Terré 12 Coop successfully balances spaciousness, comfort, and practical features tailored for long-term cruising. Its flexible interior layout, ample storage, and thoughtful design elements make it well-suited for hosting multiple guests or undertaking extended voyages like the Great Loop. The helm and cockpit arrangements facilitate easy handling and social interaction, while the private accommodations provide a home-like atmosphere. Overall, the Terré 12 Coop exemplifies the concept that life is better on a boat, delivering a versatile and livable platform for cruising enthusiasts.
