2009 Beneteau Oceanis 40 "Blackfin"
If you're searching for a well-equipped Beneteau Oceanis 40 for sale, a comfortable 40-foot cruising sailboat, or a capable coastal cruiser with modern systems already aboard, "Blackfin" deserves serious attention. The Beneteau Oceanis 40 is one of the most respected cruising sailboats in its class, known for blending dependable sailing performance, spacious accommodations, easy short-handed handling, and the strong resale value associated with the Beneteau Oceanis line.
Designed by Berret Racoupeau with interior styling by Nauta Design, the Oceanis 40 delivers the balance today's cruising sailors continue to look for: a capable sailing yacht with a generous cockpit, bright interior, comfortable accommodations, and the equipment needed for weekends aboard, coastal cruising, ICW travel, Chesapeake Bay sailing, or liveaboard use.
"Blackfin" is a thoughtfully maintained and well-equipped example featuring a desirable two-cabin, one-head layout, twin helm cockpit, in-mast furling mainsail, furling genoa, generator, reverse-cycle air conditioning, RayMarine electronics, autopilot, electric head, hot and cold pressure water, and a strong cruising inventory. This is the kind of cruiser buyers actively search for because the major comfort systems are already in place.
The cockpit is one of the standout features of the Oceanis 40. With her wide beam carried aft, twin steering wheels, deep seating, teak accents, cockpit table, dodger, bimini, and connector canvas, "Blackfin" offers an inviting and functional outdoor living space. The twin wheel layout provides excellent visibility under sail, easy movement through the cockpit, and practical access to the swim platform.
Sail handling is designed for simplicity and confidence. "Blackfin" is equipped with an in-mast furling mainsail, Profurl headsail furler, rigid boom vang, Lewmar winches, electric cabin-top utility winch, and an organized deck layout with well marked rigging. This setup makes her especially appealing for couples or short-handed crews who want a manageable cruising yacht without sacrificing performance. Also included is a virtually unused spinnaker with lines, adding versatility for lighter-air sailing. Recent review and inspection of the rigging has proved favorable.
Powered by a dependable Yanmar diesel engine, "Blackfin" offers the reliability and confidence cruising sailors expect for coastal passages, docking, and extended time aboard. An onboard Onan diesel generator supports the vessel's comfort systems, including reverse-cycle air conditioning, making life aboard comfortable whether at anchor, on the hook, or away from shore power.
Below deck, the Beneteau Oceanis 40 offers the bright and spacious interior that made this model so popular. Large ports and overhead hatches bring in natural light, while the layout provides a generous salon, navigation station, full galley, two private cabins, and one spacious head. The two-cabin configuration is especially desirable for owners who prefer additional storage and living space over tighter multi-cabin layouts.
The galley includes a Force 10 two-burner LPG stove, refrigeration, microwave, deep stainless sink, and pressurized hot and cold water. The head features an electric flush toilet, molded sink, shower arrangement, and freshwater flush capability. With 95 gallons of freshwater capacity, a 53-gallon fuel tank, and a 20-gallon holding tank, "Blackfin" is well suited for extended cruising.
Navigation electronics include a RayMarine chartplotter, autopilot, depth, wind, and tri-data displays, VHF communication, and dual compasses - giving the next owner a capable navigation package for coastal passage-making.
Valuable cruising extras make this package especially appealing: a West Marine PHP-310 roll-up dinghy rated for up to five passengers, a nearly new Tohatsu 9.8 HP outboard with very low hours, a salon table filler cushion for additional sleeping space, and the nearly unused spinnaker with lines.
The Beneteau Oceanis 40 remains a sought-after model because it successfully bridges the gap between comfortable cruiser and capable sailing yacht. It offers the space and comfort buyers want, the sailing performance they expect from Beneteau, and the practical equipment that makes ownership easier and more enjoyable.
"Blackfin" stands out as a well-equipped, air-conditioned, generator-equipped Oceanis 40 with desirable sail handling, thoughtful upgrades, and a complete cruising inventory. For buyers seeking a 40-foot cruising sailboat, coastal cruiser, Chesapeake Bay cruiser, or liveaboard-ready yacht, "Blackfin" deserves serious consideration.
