RACER-CRUISER ROYALTY
The FIRST 44 embodies a natural link between the FIRST 36 and FIRST 53, equally refining and redefining performance, elegance and comfort - a new Biscontini/Argento creation that truly denies itself nothing. Drawing to the noblest sense of the term "racer/cruiser", she's a lovely sailing yacht with a remarkable design, offering through her architecture and build quality an experience underway that is simply second to none.
A DUAL DESIGN
The FIRST 44 was imagined with two deck layouts to satisfy a greater variety of wishes and needs. The FIRST 44 version distinguishes itself with a convivial and comfortable cockpit, wherein wide side-decks converge towards a lovely cockpit table. Four winches, a fixed centerline block for the mainsheet and a mast that is set further aft all maximize the potential of her modern sailplan, defined by a slender mainsail and generously sized foresails.
A SUPERIOR STANDARD OF ACCOMMODATIONS
The FIRST 44 is infused with Lorenzo Argento's style, a distinctive blend of elegance and modernity. Her three-cabin, two-head layout is an assemblage of quality materials interwoven into a masterful finish. In the salon the six-seater transversal table lays opposite of the couch and nav station; its positioning in relation to the mast eases the movement between galley and master stateroom, thereby accentuating the feeling of space.
EXPERTISE AS A CORNERSTONE
Assembled in a specially dedicated workshop, the FIRST 44 takes full benefit of BENETEAU's expertise and the knowledge of the industry's sharpest minds. Subjected by their owners to the rigors of the offshore racing, FIRSTs are always the result of a rigorous development and perfection process. Engineering for the FIRST 44 was entrusted to the Mer Forte firm, well known for its work on high-end blue-water race boats, including the celebrated Figaro BENETEAU 3.
Features may include:
A DUAL DESIGN
- The FIRST 44 is presented in two main setups, FIRST 44 and FIRST 44 PERFORMANCE, with a different deck plan and options for keels and masts.
STREAMLINED INTERIOR

EXPERTISE
- She is crafted and finished in a dedicated workshop that delivers the full scope of BENETEAU expertise.
