Beneteau Oceanis 473 Clipper Sold

The French Beneteau shipyard has a good reputation when it comes to designing and building spacious and comfortable sailing yachts. This Oceanis 473 Clipper is a good example of such a generous family cruiser with both pleasant sailing characteristics and a lot of living space. The design is timeless and the boat meets today's comfort requirements. The cockpit is remarkably spacious and has a fold-out table that easily accommodates a large group. Both the sprayhood and bimini offer shelter in all types of weather and make the cockpit a pleasant terrace. The double steering position makes passage very easy and all navigation instruments including autopilot are within easy reach. Around the cockpit are four Lewmar self-tailing winches to which all sheets and halyards are guided. One halyard winch is electric so that hoisting the mainsail is done at the push of a button. A heavy-duty anchor winch is placed in the anchor locker so that the anchor can be retrieved effortlessly. On the transom is an integrated swimming platform with shower equipped with mixer tap.

The interior is finished with dark mahogany in beautiful contrast with the white plastic. The saloon has a spacious and cozy sitting area with modern blue Alcantara cushions and a large table in the middle. The sitting area can easily be converted into a double bed. On the starboard side is an L-shaped kitchen with double sink, stove and very large cool box. In the kitchen unit there is plenty of cupboard space for provisions. In the bow is a spacious double owner's cabin with private bathroom, complete with shower, a sink and plenty of cupboard space. In the aft ship are two large double cabins. On the port side of the cabin you will find a large bathroom and the navigation corner. The engine is easily accessible for service by hinged up the large staircase.

All in all, this Beneteau Oceanis 473 clipper can be called a very successful design. Very pleasant to stay on inside, a pleasure to sail on outside.
