Beneteau Flyer 8 Sundeck Boats For Sale

The Beneteau Flyer 8 Sundeck is a 26-foot-10-inch (just over 8 meters) cruiser built around a cuddy cabin and foredeck, the version of the Flyer 8 designed for sunbathing and overnighting rather than the open center-console Spacedeck. She suits young families and couples who want a single trailerable boat that can entertain on deck, cruise offshore or out to nearby islands, and still sleep two below. At roughly 6,100 pounds with outboard and full fuel, she can be towed by a large SUV. The same hull underpins both models: a V-bottom with a sharp entry and pronounced bow flare that widens the foredeck and softens the ride through chop.

Both Flyer 8 versions are rated for a single outboard up to 350 horsepower, and the engine choice drives the performance. With a 250-hp V8 the boat runs an ideal top speed of around 35 to 40 knots and cruises comfortably at 20 to 22 knots; fitted with a Mercury 300 Verado V8 she reaches the mid-40s, about 45 mph. A bow thruster is available and makes docking and tight maneuvering far easier, paired with Mercury's gen 3 controls on the Mercury-powered boats. One example in stock runs a Suzuki 325 with a duo-prop drive. Range is real-world usable: the boat has been run from San Diego in about three and a half hours and across to Catalina more easily from Newport Beach.

The helm seats two on forward-facing bolster seats that fold up or recline, giving good visibility underway behind a windscreen scoop that keeps wind off the occupants. Electronics options include a Garmin depth sounder screen, a twin-screen navigation upgrade, and the Mercury SmartCraft gauge that reads fuel, trim tabs and engine data; Suzuki-powered boats carry the matching Suzuki gauges and controls. An electric windlass with bow anchor is controlled from the helm.

The cockpit carries a capacity of up to 10 people, with modular seating that includes swiveling helm and companion seats, fold-out bench seats from each gunnel, and a transom seat. A drop-down table serves lunch or cocktails for al fresco dining, and the aft bench folds flat to make a second sun pad. Aft, a stainless steel water sports arch or ski mast handles tubes and wakeboards, and two extended swim platforms flank the engine with a hidden boarding ladder. A hard top T-top provides sun and wind protection, and a teak cockpit sole was a popular order option. Forward, the asymmetrical deck gives a side passage past the cabin to a large sun pad with two cup holders, a flip-up backrest and a removable sun shade, bordered by high grab rails.

Below in the cuddy cabin, a wrap-around banquette and table convert to a double berth where two adults can sleep, with an opening overhead hatch, LED cabin lights and side curtains. The galley area has a sink with fresh, electric-pumped hot water and a 42-liter fridge, and there is a fully enclosed head with an electric or seawater toilet, holding tank and overboard discharge. This makes her a genuine weekender. When shopping the Beneteau Flyer 8 Sundeck for sale, the main decisions are engine size, the bow thruster and electronics options, and condition. New, a US example with the Mercury 300 V8 Verado in the water and ready was priced around $150,000, while a 2020 model with the Suzuki 325 was offered at £67,500.
